Speaker Bio
Haydeé Acebo
Haydeé Acebo is a bilingual TEDx speaker, executive coach, and author whose work sits at the intersection of leadership, resilience, and workplace wellbeing. With more than 20 years of experience guiding leaders and organizations across the United States and Latin America, she has become one of the most sought-after voices on the power of asking for help.
Her signature keynote — The Power of Asking for Help — challenges the cultural myth that self-sufficiency is strength. Drawing on her A·S·K framework and her own story of reinvention, Haydeé shows audiences how vulnerability, resilience, and the courage to ask are not signs of weakness but the foundation of high-performing teams and thriving cultures.
She speaks on resilience, women in leadership, bilingual and bicultural identity, and designing workplaces where people actually feel safe enough to say "I need help." Her talks are equal parts research-backed and deeply personal — delivered with warmth, humor, and the kind of honesty that moves people to act.
KEYNOTE TOPICS
Talks that transform cultures.
The Power of Asking for Help
Signature Keynote
Haydeé's signature keynote — and the heart of her upcoming book. She unpacks why asking for help feels so hard, the hidden cost of going it alone, and how the A·S·K framework (Acknowledge, Seek, Keep going) rewires individuals and entire organizational cultures.
Resilience Is a Team Sport
Resilience & Recovery
Resilience isn't a solo skill you either have or don't — it's built in community. Haydeé draws on her own story of reinvention and two decades of leadership work to show how teams bounce back faster when they normalize asking for support before hitting the wall.
Leadership & Vulnerability
Executive Leadership
For leaders who want to build more authentic and resilient teams. Haydeé shares how strategic vulnerability — the willingness to say "I don't know" or "I need help" — is the most underestimated leadership skill of the 21st century.
Women Who Ask
DEI & Empowerment
Designed for women's leadership conferences. Explores the cultural and social conditioning that trains women to minimize their needs — and gives them a practical, permission-granting framework to ask boldly for what they deserve.
The Bilingual Leader
Diversity & Inclusion
What does it mean to lead across cultures and languages? Haydeé speaks from lived experience as a Latina executive navigating two worlds. This talk explores how bilingual and bicultural leaders bring a unique superpower to the table — and how organizations can stop wasting it.
Workplace Wellbeing by Design
HR & Culture
A practical workshop for HR teams and people leaders who want to build cultures where asking for help is the norm, not the exception. Participants leave with a concrete action plan and tools they can implement from day one.
