Speaking

Speaking

I have spoken at over 200 events and conferences all over the world and delivered workshops both face-to-face and online. I talk about all things that impact museums including digital, transformation, and making a ruckus. I try to have a sense of humour and share as many tips and mistakes as I can squeeze into a session.

Want me to speak?

In 2024 other than 1-2 speaking gigs I am focused on writing and contributing to workshops instead of large public speaking engagements. It’s not you it’s me. As ever I will answer any questions about transformation by email.

I produce slides using Google Slides and share the URL with the event who can download and share as you see fit.
