My keynotes

Perspective Intelligence

Unwelcome perspectives lead to faster, better decisions

This keynote helps global leaders to turn unwelcome perspectives into their sharpest decision advantage, using concrete tools like the 3-step ‘blind spot scan’ and the ‘5-minute red-team drill’.

Conflict as an Advantage

What great leaders do before the lawyers arrive.

Turn conflict into an advantage long before resignations, headlines or lawyers appear. Participants learn to detect tension early, surface the unsaid, and take decisions that hold across cultures, power lines and pressure.

Protecting Value in Cross-Cultural Negotiation

Face, time, and decision power – the economics of global negotiation.

This keynote shows international leaders how to stop losing value across borders. Participants learn to decode silence, map real decision-makers with a cultural stakeholder map, influence power dynamics, and manage concessions across cultures and departments.

The Unwelcome Perspective

Practical tools for inclusive leadership

This keynote reframes inclusion from counting minority-heads and optical PR to using human differences to drive better decisions and performance. Leaders learn concrete tools like ‘intellectual-humility sprints’ and ‘say-the-unsaid rounds’.
