Thomas Triumph Biography

Thomas Triumph helps companies grow by collaboratively working on vital areas of their business - Technology, Product Development and Marketing. He is a hands-on executive with a record of achievement managing dozens of innovative products within several different industries - and within Fortune 500 and startup companies.

Tom is the author of the book Evolve or Die: Lessons for World-Class Innovation & Creativity. The book contains a culmination of experiences, thoughts, and learning-- much of it from world-class innovators and creators.

Tom has helped large organizations act more nimbly in the market and small companies scale. Leading Marketing and Business Development, he has launched numerous technology products and led cross-functional teams – including participating in two technology revolutions – less invasive medical devices and the Internet/software. Tom has been a part of some remarkable technology and business growth success stories (as well as some misfires).

Building submarines out of 55-gallon drums in grade school, he eventually fulfilled a childhood dream of living aboard a research ship (Jacques Cousteau was on the Board of Directors) and tending to the mini-sub. Tom also wrestled in the Olympic Trials, founded a consumer electronic company (Athletech), and worked for leading companies to help launch and lead: medical device products, software, Internet companies, professional consulting services, and the largest hovercraft ever built in the U.S. from composite materials (25 ton).

Thomas Triumph Speaking Topics

  • The Future of Work: Business & Technology Luminaries on the Next 20 Years

    This talk distills the thinking from tech and business luminaries as to the ways in which technology will impact our work and lives over the next two decades. Contributors include: Josh Bayliss (CEO Virgin), Tom Kelly (Founder IDEO), John Sculley (Business), Steve Wozniak (Apple), Nolan Bushnell (Tech Pioneer), Carol Smith (IBM Watson), Ed Fernandez (Singularity U), etc.

    Nobel Prize physicist Niels Bohr was correct when he commented that, “Prediction is very difficult, especially if it’s about the future.” Nonetheless, we’re obligated to do our best to foresee how today’s emerging technology and trends will impact our work and lives in the foreseeable future.

    The talk provides the best thinking from business & technology luminaries as to how emerging technology (incl AI and robotics) and business trends will impact our work and lives. The new revolution is of interest to any curious person involved in shaping the future.

    Emerging technologies will give us the levers to disproportionately augment our work and thinking in unimagined ways. Having an understanding as to how these technologies and trends are expected to impact our work and lives gives us the opportunity to better prepare.

    In deference to Niels Bohr, predictions about the next twenty years are difficult. But the benefits and practical value of looking forward nonetheless help guide our thinking about the tools we shape – before they inevitably shape us.

  • Intentional Evolution: How People & Companies Navigate Challenges & Thrive

    An entertaining and informative keynote focused on how the world’s best companies advance towards a better future in an ever-changing world.

    With a grounding in real-world experience, and the best thinking from today’s tech and business luminaries, Tom explains how best to prepare as individuals and teams to meet the challenges of the future (including COVID-19).

    As a result of the uncertainties and challenges facing businesses today, a significant percentage of once (or currently) healthy businesses will encounter significant difficulty operating with a “business as usual” mindset. Yet the reality is that these inevitable changes concurrently bring new opportunities to those organizations that are able to understand, respond and leverage them. However, a successful future is not arbitrary nor is it reached with a haphazard approach. Rather there are proven strategies that can be learned and methodologies that can be applied to not just survive • but thrive in the future.

  • Be More Human: Lessons For World-Class Innovation & Creativity

    Your attendees have a lot in common with many of the world-class innovators and creators. This talk will remind them of their innate capabilities and provide guidance on their path toward a better future.

    An inspiring talk on the myths and folklore that prevent teams and individuals from producing their best work, and an explanation of the techniques and best practices to drive world-class innovation and creativity.

    Learning how to better innovate and create will help your attendees provide greater value to themselves, their families and their organizations.

    Every company needs innovation and creativity to remain competitive – especially in today’s world. Building a culture of creativity and driving innovation doesn’t happen by accident, nor does it happen by magic. The talk provides lessons common to the best innovators, all of which are relevant to professionals engaged in marketing products and services.

  • Getting Great: How We Can Impact the Five Pillars of Every Organization

    This talk distills decades of research into the world’s best and most innovative companies, and explains the salient lessons from their best practices. The world’s best companies are mission driven, and align their strategies, culture and processes to continually improve and innovate. Gaining an understanding of how that’s done can make the difference between a business succeeding or calcifying into mediocrity.

    Tom explains the five pillars common in every organization, and illustrates in an engaging and informative manner using case studies how we can continually make improvements within each pillar.
