Strategic clarity for the AI age.

Designing for human-AI collaboration requires more than technical knowledge - it means learning how intelligent systems can augment human capability. I provide evidence-based frameworks to help organisations navigate the future of work and learning.

Keynotes that define the agenda.

I deliver keynotes that shift perspectives and provide strategic clarity for institutions navigating AI integration. From UNESCO to national governments, I ground my presentations in policy and practice, helping leaders design for augmentation, not replacement.

Executive dialogue & expert panels.

In panels and fireside conversations, I engage in critical dialogue on AI's impact on professional expertise and human authority. I bring candid, conversational authority - connecting global policy developments to practical institutional reality.

Strategic advisory for leadership teams.

I work with boards and executive committees to translate AI research into capacity-building strategy. These dialogue-driven sessions help leaders align learning strategy, workforce planning, and AI integration.

Virtual masterclasses & global briefings.

I deliver virtual sessions that translate AI strategy into accessible insights for distributed teams. These masterclasses build shared understanding of human-AI collaboration across your workforce or membership.
