About Toni
Toni Kent is a keynote speaker and writer specialising in social mobility and social equity. She is also the Founder of The Common Good Network – an interactive map and directory of organisations that help people overcome socioeconomic barriers to opportunities.
Thanks to a social mobility story that involves a rare combination of 15 years of tech industry experience, 15 years of running her own speaking & writing business and the ability to entertain audiences in person and online, Toni delivers honest, humorous insights into what it means to experience social mobility, how it highlights a lack of social equity, and what organisations can do about it.
Clients include tech companies, investment banks, and membership organisations. Scroll on down to see some examples and testimonials.
Alongside her specialisation in the social mobility & social equity space, Toni uses her experiences to deliver workshops on storytelling and how to embrace change even when it feels risky.
