What I'm speaking on right now
After the Platforms
The media infrastructure most institutions built their public presence on is fragmenting. X, Facebook, and legacy media are losing coherence simultaneously while AI-mediated information systems are taking over. This talk maps what's replacing them — and how organizations can build credible, durable public presence in what comes next.
Book this talkFeeding Intelligence: AI Meets the Farm
Agriculture is where AI confronts physical reality — soil, weather, labour, supply chains. The farm is the most honest test of what AI can and cannot optimize. This talk uses food systems to cut through AI hype and show what resilient, grounded automation actually looks like.
Book this talkThriving When the Future Is Uncertain
The strategic frameworks most organizations depend on were built for stable conditions. They are failing under accelerating change. This talk gives leaders practical disciplines for navigating genuine uncertainty — not strategies for avoiding it, but tools for making consequential decisions when the ground keeps shifting.
Book this talkThe Human in the Loop
Every organization deploying AI is asking the same question: which decisions do we keep? The gap between what AI can do and what institutions know how to govern is widening fast. This talk gives leaders a practical framework for mapping decision authority, designing meaningful oversight, and building accountability structures before something goes wrong.
