Make your AI offsite the day your leaders decide.

I built it before I spoke about it.

The AI Day is one day: a keynote, then a working session I lead myself. It comes from an operator who ran a $1.1B innovation portfolio, not a futurist with slides.

FREQUENTLY FEATURED IN:

One day. A keynote, then an executive AI workshop.

First, a keynote on what AI is changing in your business, starting with the half-life of skills inside your own teams. Then I stay, and we work: I facilitate your leadership team from "AI matters" to what you will do, who owns it, and when. You leave with a short list of AI use cases your leaders agreed on, a named owner for each one, a 90-day plan that starts Monday, and shared language so the debate stops repeating itself.

The Agentic AI Strategy Workshop: From Pilots to P&L

A hands-on working session for enterprise leadership teams: map your highest-value agentic AI opportunities, pressure-test them against real constraints, and leave with a 90-day roadmap with owners and metrics — not another slide deck.

The Agentic AI Governance Workshop: Guardrails, Oversight & Trust at Scale

A hands-on working session for enterprise leadership teams: turn AI agent sprawl and shadow-AI risk into a governance model your leaders actually run. Map where your agents already operate, decide what needs human oversight, and leave with a 90-day governance roadmap with named owners and escalation paths — not another policy PDF.

The AI-Ready Workforce Workshop: Preparing Teams for Agentic AI

A practical, energizing session that takes employees from AI uncertainty to hands-on capability: what agentic AI means for their roles, the skills that matter most, and a personal adoption plan every participant builds in the room.

The Agentic AI Sales Accelerator Workshop

Hands-on agentic AI training for revenue teams: build AI-assisted prospecting, qualification, and follow-up workflows live in the session, and leave with new skills your reps use the next morning.

The AI-Ready Campus Workshop: AI Strategy & Governance for Higher Education

A working session for campus and system leaders: build your institution's AI governance baseline, align academic and administrative priorities, and leave with a practical agentic AI action plan for the semester ahead.

AI for Associations Workshop: Your Member Value Playbook

A facilitated session for association boards and staff: identify how agentic AI changes your members' professions and your own operations, then build a concrete plan for programs, education, and member value in the AI era.

Most AI offsites end with notes, not decisions. {A team offsite should settle that question, together.}

Your leaders have heard the talks. They have seen the slides. Then someone lowers their voice in the hallway: "So what do we do on Monday?" If nobody can answer, the day was theater.

Why Me.

I spent two decades building innovation inside a Fortune 100. I ran a $1.1B portfolio at Cisco and built innovation centers in 14 countries. I have delivered 310+ engagements. Of 582+ attendees surveyed on Talkadot, 98% say they would recommend me. I wrote the WSJ bestseller "Fearless Innovation." I speak from the work, not about it.

01

Innovation for everyone

Alex turns AI into practical concepts — not techspeak — that land with executives, HR, sales, engineering, and faculty alike. It's the same approach he honed building university-anchored innovation centers across 14 countries, bridging cultures and generations.

02

Built around your audience

Across 310+ keynotes, workshops, and advisory engagements on 6 continents, no two have ever been the same. Alex builds every program around your audience's challenges, industry, and goals — from agentic AI strategy and the future of work to innovation culture.

03

Value that lasts

Most programs end at applause. Alex's end with deployment — the same frameworks proven inside Cisco, Dell, Pfizer, and IBM and documented in his WSJ bestseller Fearless Innovation. Workshops and advisory install them in your team, so they're still running long after the event.

04

Proven where it counts

Two decades leading AI and innovation where the stakes are real — a $1.1B portfolio at Cisco, three Olympic Games, 300,000+ employees, and AI transformation for Fortune 100s, governments, and America's largest public university system. Every engagement is measured, so you see the ROI.

05

Your team will thank you

A 60-minute keynote, a hands-on workshop, a virtual session, or multi-month advisory — for enterprises, universities, and associations alike. Whatever the format, 98% of audiences say they would recommend him.

In Their Own Words

Alex’s keynote was the highlight of the event.

Alex speaks like someone who has actually led transformation at scale — because he has.

Most universities are still preparing students for a world that no longer exists. Alex made that impossible to ignore.

For the first time, people across the organization felt like their ideas truly mattered - and within days, teams were already taking action and building new solutions together.

Alex created the kind of tension leadership teams need -  forcing us to confront hard questions about the future of work and whether we are adapting fast enough. 

Alex has a rare ability to challenge how leaders think — and do it in a way that inspires alignment, not defensiveness. Our executive team left with clarity, urgency, and a shared vision for how to lead in the age of AI.
