I’ve spoken internationally to tens of thousands of people across dozens of industries about creativity, leadership, and how to unleash everyday brilliance.
I believe that each audience member should walk away with specific, concrete ideas they can immediately implement to make them more effective. Inspiration is important, but now more than ever I believe we need application.
As such, my keynote topics focus on concrete practices that lead to increased creativity and improved collaboration. I can customize each talk for the audience, and can also develop a custom talk for certain occasions. (In addition to these keynote topics, I also conduct a number of workshops through Accidental Creative. These are more intensive half and full-day interactive sessions designed to help teams be prolific, brilliant and healthy.)
If you’re interested in having me to to speak at your company or event, please call my office at 1-877-795-9377 x707 or reach out to me through the contact page.
