Speaking
I’ve been honored to speak at events such as the World Economic Forum in Davos, TED, SXSW, BIF, India Today’s Annual Conclave, PINC, and many others, as well as to numerous corporate audiences such as Microsoft, Oracle, Nokia, Johns Hopkins, The United States Office of the Director of National Intelligence, MIT’s Media Lab, and others.
If you’d like to see examples, check some out here, and if you’d like me to come speak to your organization, let me know. Lately I’ve been speaking on:
Hacking Work; How Work is Broken and How We Can Fix It – From the Bottom Up
- We all know that big bureaucracies are struggling to keep up with the pace of change. Turn one of your biggest costs – frustrated employees – into one of your biggest assets. (Based on my recent book.)
Reputational Economics; Why who cares is more important than what you have
- Everyone relies on their relationships to get what they need. The internet has changed that, now (with new social software platforms) more than ever. Hear how to make the most of who you know!
Meritocratic Marketplaces; The secret side to the megatrends you thought you understood
- “Transparency,” “Online Services,” “the cloud”: we’ve all heard the buzzwords, but what do they *mean*? The answer turns out to be both more and less than you’d think. Come discover how common opinion has shortsighted the impact and opportunity of the biggest trends we’ve all misunderstood.
Synanthropy; How parasitic species can be coopted to beneficial systems
- Rats, cockroaches, deer, crows – all of these species are hyperadapted to living with humanity (synanthropes), and yet we persist in trying to eradicate them. It turns out that with a little ingenuity we can make them productive elements of human society, instead. Find out how as we explore synanthropy.
