Presentation Topics

I speak at the intersection of strategy, leadership, and what it really takes to make progress in complex environments. My talks focus on decision-making, clarity, and practical tools—delivered with candor, real-world stories, and a steady rejection of fluff.

Here are a few themes I explore:

Strategic Thinking for the Workplace and Beyond
How to cut through complexity, align action with intention, and build systems that actually work.

The Most Strategic Thing You Can Be Is Yourself
Why authenticity isn't a soft skill—it’s a competitive advantage when leading, influencing, or making hard calls.

Decision-Making Under Pressure
Lessons from war rooms, boardrooms, and everyday chaos—how to think critically, communicate clearly, and lead confidently when it matters most.

Unlearning, Reframing, and Making Space for What’s Next
How to recognize outdated patterns, reframe what’s possible, and build from a place of clarity—not burnout.

What Star Trek Taught Me About Strategy, Leadership, and Moral Courage
From Kobayashi Maru to command decisions, this talk explores how a sci-fi franchise shaped real-world lessons about clarity, ethics, and vision.
