Keynotes · Leadership, change & innovation
Give people an idea they will still discuss after the event.
I draw on my work with leaders, teams and technology to make complex questions tangible. In Music & Agility, I also bring a different world into the room: the stage of a touring band.

A different perspective.
Music & Agility
A touring band offers a different way into agility: entertaining, tangible and away from the jargon.
Why the old problems survive a transformation
New roles and meetings, but the same slow decisions and delivery. A look at what needs attention beyond the process.
What happens when someone admits a mistake?
Why bad news stays hidden, and how a leader’s response can help people speak up and learn.
On-site keynotes
Stage presence meets substance.
Years on stage as a musician shape how I deliver a keynote. I bring that performance experience together with stories and insights from my work with leaders, teams and technology. Entertainment and substance belong together: people should enjoy the talk and have something worth discussing afterwards.
Virtual keynotes
Designed for the screen.
I develop my virtual keynotes specifically for online audiences. Professional audio, multiple camera angles and sound effects are part of the storytelling—not simply a camera pointed at a presentation. The Music & Agility excerpt above gives you a taste of that approach.
Experience
The work behind the talks.
I work with leaders and technical teams, have co-founded businesses, and explored technologies and future markets in Silicon Valley. The questions on stage also arise in my work with organizations.
More about my backgroundPlanning your event
Can you adapt the talk to our audience?
Yes. Every engagement starts with a briefing about your audience and the context of your event. For an internal event, that includes the challenges your company is facing. For a conference, we discuss its theme, the tone you want to set and the questions people should carry into the event.
Can we include Q&A or a panel discussion?
I’m happy to take questions after the talk; we agree the time for this beforehand. I can also join a panel at the same event, with the scope and any additional fee agreed separately.
What do you need from our event team?
The setup depends on the talk and whether it is on site or virtual. Tell me about your event, and we can work through the technical requirements together.
Can we record the talk and share the content?
Usually, yes. We agree beforehand what may be recorded, photographed and shared. That covers material your team would like to use as well as any photos or recordings I would like to make and share.
How do fees and travel work?
I quote a fixed fee for the agreed preparation and delivery, based on the topic, format and level of customization. Travel and accommodation are agreed separately, usually as a flat amount. If you already have arrangements in place, such as a hotel booking, I take those into account in the quote.
What would you like your audience to take away?
Tell me a little about your event. Include a date or timeframe if you have one; we can work out the topic and format together.
I’ll use these details to respond to your inquiry.
