Speaking

I speak on AI, growth, marketing, faith and personal development.

Why I speak

Speaking into people is something I love.

It grows out of something else I love, which is learning. When a subject catches my interest I go deep. I read, I research, I try it for myself, and I stay with it until I properly understand it. That takes discipline, and I enjoy that part too. Technology has always been that way for me, and so have business, marketing and my faith.

I’m also someone who has to put things into practice. I would rather try an idea this week than talk about it for a year, so most of what I share is something I’m working through right now, in my own companies and with the businesses we work with.

I grew up in South Africa and I live in the UAE, two places where you are surrounded by people from every culture and background. I love that. It has taught me to listen first and to meet people where they are, and it’s why I feel at home in all kinds of rooms.

So when I speak, I’m simply sharing what I’m learning and what I love, as honestly and clearly as I can. If someone leaves encouraged, with one thing they can use, that means a lot to me.

Topics

These are some of the areas I speak on. The exact topic and subject matter can be discussed and agreed for each event.

Formats are flexible and shaped around what you need: keynotes, team workshops, panels, fireside chats and in-house sessions.

Where

Based in Dubai, available worldwide.

I speak in person and I travel. Public events or private ones, small teams or large audiences: if the room wants to grow, I’d love to be in it.
