What this is
Conference talks, internal leadership sessions, panel moderation and half day workshops. Practical rather than visionary, and built for the specific room rather than delivered from a shelf. Danish or English.
What usually brings people here
A team that needs to get past the AI headlines to what it means for their business. An event that wants someone who has run the thing rather than only studied it. Or a panel that needs a moderator who understands the subject well enough to ask the second question.
What the room actually wants
Every audience has now sat through a keynote about exponential change and gone back to a job where nothing changed. So they are tired rather than curious, which makes them a better audience. They want to know what this does in their job next month, what someone like them tried that failed, and what their board will ask them afterwards.
What I do
We agree the audience and the one thing they should leave with, in a sentence. Then I build the session around that. I talk about what has not worked as well as what has, because a room that has been oversold to for two years reads honesty as competence.
Formats
A conference stage suits one provocation and a clear argument. An internal leadership session suits working through the decisions actually on their roadmap. A workshop suits getting hands on something small enough to finish. Moderating is a different skill again, and I do that too. Delivering the conference talk to a leadership team is the most common mistake and the least useful hour for everyone.
How it runs
A conversation about the audience and the outcome, then the session. Groups from a handful of people around a table to a few hundred in a hall.
