Inspirational Talks & Custom Brainstorms
Created 6 years ago in Business / Getting Started

I have 20+ years of experience across academia, government, and the private sector of looking at problems differently, pulling in data and trends from diverse areas, and giving people inspiration. I'd be happy to talk with you about some challenge or choice you're facing and help you get past that speed bump on the road to success.
More:
During periods of disruption, transformation, or innovation, sometimes leaders aren't event sure where to begin. I can deliver confidential presentations, discussions, and brainstorms that help you understand trends and developments in the landscape and where to begin tackling your organization's challenges.
Beyond initial conversation(s), potential deliverables include:
- Formal keynote for internal conference/offsite
- Interactive talk session with audience interaction
- Panel discussion/mini-conference organization and/or hosting
- Consultant-driven discussion for small groups
- Formal brainstorm about strategy, product, brand and related topics
Past projects include:
- Interactive 2.5 hour keynote for a financial institution's marketing team offsite
- Organizer of an engaging, high-tech "innovation breakfast" for a global industrial and technology company
