I speak on the topics I work closest to. Practical perspectives from building and running AI-powered digital operations inside real businesses. Available for corporate keynotes, leadership summits, executive workshops, and boardroom sessions.
The areas I speak on most. Each grounded in operator experience, not theory.
The gap between strategy and execution. What 20 years of building digital operations teaches you about why plans fail and how organisations actually get things done.
Digital StrategyWhy most digital transformations fail, and the sequencing, team structure, and decision-making that separates the ones that don't.
AI & TechnologyWhy most AI experiments never become operational reality, and what separates the organisations that successfully move from pilot to production at scale.
OperationsHow to build digital systems and teams that scale across multiple markets, covering ops stack decisions, digital team structure, and tech debt management.
AI GovernanceMost organisations are trying to govern AI without the frameworks to do it. What good oversight looks like in practice, for boards, leadership teams, and the operators responsible for making it work.
EntrepreneurshipThe decisions that determine whether a growing business holds together: digital foundations, team structure, and operating model for founders and leadership teams navigating real scale.
Depending on the audience and objective, sessions can take different forms.
30–60 minutes for a conference, summit, or company event. Designed to challenge assumptions and leave the audience with a clearer framework for thinking about AI and digital change.
Half or full-day sessions with leadership teams. Structured around your specific context and challenges, with time to work through real decisions rather than generic frameworks.
90-minute sessions designed for boards and NEDs. Focused on governance, oversight, and the right questions to ask. Not the technical detail.
Panel participation at conferences and industry events, particularly on AI strategy, digital leadership, and the intersection of technology and business governance.
Keynotes and panel sessions at leadership summits, industry conferences, and company events. Topics cover AI adoption, digital strategy, and what actually changes organisations.
Private workshops and boardroom sessions with leadership teams. Structured around real decisions, not generic frameworks.
Guest lecturer on AI adoption, digital strategy, and technology leadership for MBA and executive education programmes.
Guest sessions at business schools across Europe on AI adoption, digital operations, and technology leadership.
