Leanne Shelton
Featured in The Australian, ABC News, The CEO Magazine, 6PR Perth Radio, and various podcasts, Leanne Shelton is CEO, Global AI Coach, and Keynote Speaker at HumanEdge AI Training. She’s also a contracted author under Major Street Publishing, with her book ‘AI Human Fusion’ set for release in June 2025.
With her 9-year-old SEO copywriting agency struggling to convert in a tough economic climate in early 2023, Leanne made the ultimate business pivot. She decided to embrace (not escape) her shiny, new, and free competitor - ChatGPT - by educating herself on the topic. With decades of writing, marketing, and training skills in her back pocket, she started to teach (non-techy) business leaders about AI prompt engineering - with the human touch.
The Sydney-based entrepreneur quickly became a sought-after keynote speaker for summits and conferences, with multiple requests to run webinars, workshops, one-on-one sessions, and team training. She’s inspired, educated, and entertained well over 2,000 people directly, alongside a highly engaged online community.
Outside of work, Leanne is a newly converted running and gym enthusiast, lover of dance, daily meditator, occasional yogi, engrossed reader and Audible consumer of business books and psychological thrillers, a dedicated wife, and frazzled mum to two daughters.

PLEASE NOTE: THIS SESSION WILL BE RECORDED, AND AVAILABLE FOR FULL YTM MEMBERS
“YTM was the first networking event I attended two years ago when I started on the journey of business ownership. I was warmly welcomed by Leigh and Kerryn, and connected with a group of interesting and intelligent business people. Now two years on I haven’t missed one, and after experiencing several other networking groups I can’t recommend YTM enough. It is by far the most well run format and allows time to really get to know other business owners, delve deep and to form real and lasting connections. My confidence has grown and I am able to practice communicating my value to others in a safe and welcoming environment.”
