While I am available for keynote, interviewer, and fireside chat opportunities worldwide, I typically limit my speaking events.

A Keynote Speaker
My goal is to help your organization unlock the next level by sharing practical and counter-intuitive ideas in the simplest way possible.
A little more about me …
- I used to work for a three-letter agency. I can’t talk much about what I used to do other than to say that you’ve probably seen it on TV or in a movie at some point, and it was really cool. I can, however, talk about how the skills I learned there helped me become a sought-after advisor to some of the most powerful people in the world.
- I’m the author of the New York Times bestseller Clear Thinking.
- I spend most of my time helping people navigate complexity, make better decisions, and position themselves for lasting success.
- Millions of people have benefited from the ideas I share. My course on making better decisions has enrolled over 10,000 students from nearly every industry and country globally. Hundreds of thousands follow me on Twitter and Instagram, over 600,000 read my weekly newsletter, and a similar number of people have read my books.
- I have spoken at Citadel, PenderFund Capital Management, Annaly Capital, Canadian Imperial Bank of Commerce, Royce Funds, Firstmark Capital, Denver Nuggets (NBA), and many more.
Interviewer
As an interviewer, I am trusted to interview some of the smartest, toughest people in the world both publicly (and at closed-door, no-recording events). One thing about former spies is you know they can keep a secret! I’ve interviewed Kenneth Griffin, Patrick Collison, Tobias Lütke, Frank Slootman, Stephen A. Schwarzman, and many others.
