About Elizabeth

Dr Elizabeth Shoesmith is on a personal mission to create a world where everyone is included and valued for their difference. It was after indirectly experiencing the exclusion and discrimination of her husband, who is profoundly Deaf, that she committed her career to inclusion. In fact you may even recall her viral wedding video, which has amassed over 300-million views, of her using sign language to sing the song ‘1000 years’ to her husband before walking down the aisle in 2018.

Versions have been created by social media pages across the internet in English, Portuguese, Japanese, Arabic, and Hindi. Soon after their wedding the media became interested in their story. This provided an opportunity for Elizabeth to start spreading the message and her vision for a world where everyone is included.

Combining her 20+ years of expertise in organisational transformation for Asia Pacific’s most notable organisations, a PhD in organisational culture and behaviour, and passion for inclusion; she has set the global benchmark for inclusion. Her innovative, yet pragmatic, approach is creating a global movement of change through the organisations, governments, and institutions we all interact with on a daily basis. This was even recognised at The Stevie Awards in New York City in 2018.

Dr Elizabeth Shoesmith, and her husband Scott, live in Sydney, Australia. She is also a mother to Naomi (21) and Dominic (17). While researching has become her hobby, in her spare time she also enjoys keeping fit at F45 Training, cherishing holidays with her family, and binge watching Netflix series from the comfort of her lounge room.
