THERE’S NO SUCH THING AS A BORING SUBJECT. THERE ARE ONLY BORING SPEAKERS.
KEYNOTE SPEAKING
Whether in person or virtually, I regularly speak to organizations of all types and sizes. Topics include the future of work, Big Data, platforms, analytics, communication, collaboration, and emerging technologies. Since 1997, I have given more than 400 talks, presentations, and workshops to more than 40,000 people on three continents and in eight countries. I’ve spoken at organizations such as Netflix, Zappos, Autodesk, Harvard Business School, eBay, SAS, and hundreds of others.

Today the costs of inaction almost always exceed the costs of action.
SERVICES
For more than two decades, I have worked with individuals and organizations in a wide variety of industries and capacities. At a high level, I help organizations collaborate, communicate, and use technology better.
All companies are tech companies. Some just haven’t realized it yet.
INSIGHTS
I write about the future of work, low-code/no-code, collaboration, communication, platforms, higher education, technology, and other topics. I pepper my posts with humor and pop-culture references. Oh, and I freakin’ despise jargon. Over the last decade, I’ve penned thousands of posts, more than 1,400 of which live on this site.
COURSES
I have created several online courses that lie outside of the peculiar world of academia. The audiences consist of driven writers and professionals looking to acquire new knowledge and skills.
POD
Conversations About Collaboration is my timely and multi-disciplinary podcast about how we work together. I chat with interesting and smart cookies about collaboration and adjacent topics: the future of work, remote work, low-code/no-code, communication, productivity, technology, workplace culture, and business processes. At the risk of name-dropping, prior guests have included Kevin Roose of The New York Times and Brad Stone of Bloomberg Businessweek.
