Talks

I speak at conferences and corporate events.

Most often I talk about how the Stanislavsky system works in business, how to persuade skeptics with sound argumentation, and how to use humor and metaphor in public speaking.

But a talk can also be built specifically for you: recently, for example, I've spoken on lying and its consequences in business, on four types of team conflict, on humor at work (and its consequences), and even on how to convince leadership to fund employee communities. More topics I've spoken on are listed below.

Get in touch, and we'll discuss a topic that works for you.
