Speaking
I speak regularly, with a conversational style that directly engages today’s networked audiences, in face to face, online/virtual and mixed reality settings on topics related to project management, education, community engagement, digital culture, organizational development, business development and product strategy.
I am the facilitator of We Are The Network, a global weekly discussion group that regularly draws 30-45 attendees from a wide variety of countries.
Contact me here about speaking engagements, custom public and private facilitation work for organizations and companies in face to face, online/virtual and mixed reality settings.
