Jonathan Brill Speaking Topics

  • AI ON YOUR ORG CHART: THE NEW WAY OF WORK

    How will AI make you a better leader? 'Silicon Valley Legend' Jonathan Brill will take you on a behind the scenes tour of the world’s advanced technology labs to find out. This talk is not about science fiction. It’s about inspiration and action.

    There’s a reason HBR called Brill, 'The world’s foremost transformation architect'. As HP’s Global Futurist, an AI inventor and the bestselling author on transformation, he has successfully helped both legacy and AI native companies transform to win.

    In your time together, you’ll have access to the same customized insights as clients like Microsoft and the Secret Service. In the process, you’ll learn to:

    • Align your team with vision, values and goals that take advantage of AI.

    • Find new ways to solve complex problems with speed and creativity.

    Perhaps, most importantly, you’ll discover that AI doesn’t replace humans. It is making us more human.

  • ARCHITECT YOUR FUTURE: CHANGE IS OPPORTUNITY

    Don’t just watch your future happen — architect it. Take a thrilling journey to the frontlines of tomorrow, where technology, geopolitics, and society collide to create what’s next. If you know how to turn disruption to your advantage, it’s your biggest opportunity.

    There’s no better guide to the changes we face — or coach on how to take advantage of them — than Jonathan Brill, HP Global Futurist, bestselling author, and celebrated inventor. His repeated ability to spot disruption and flip it into opportunity is why Forbes recently ranked him as the #1 Futurist in the world.

    Your assumptions will be challenged by hard data. You’ll be inspired by extraordinary people who are changing the world. Your imagination will be ignited as you gain the same exclusive access as the Fortune 50 CEOs and government leaders Brill advises. In this inspiring talk, you’ll learn how to:

    • Navigate Uncertainty — Discover the 10 trends shaping the 2020’s.
    • Invent Tomorrow — Leverage AI on your org chart.
    • Do What Matters — Learn the ABC’s, the three actionable tools to Architect Your Future.

    As Adam Grant said, this is “an actionable framework for driving change, instead of being blindsided by it. Which path will you choose?"

  • STRATEGIC LUCK: THE SCIENCE OF THRIVING IN UNCERTAINTY

    Most people think luck is coincidence, fate or that you make it yourself. It’s none of the above.

    It is, however, a science-based skill that your audience can get dramatically better at it — in less than an hour.

    Luck isn’t chance. It’s a choice. Your audience can have more joy, success and ease with less effort through this science based, interactive keynote — no matter how lucky they are. Brill, an international best selling author and scholar on decision making, and principal investigator of the largest study on luck, persuasively argues that luck isn’t an option, it’s perhaps the most impactful factor of success. It’s strategic in your business and in your life.

    Throughout your time together, he’ll create a sense of wonder and opens up a world of practical possibility through hilarious personal stories, intimate interactive moments and hard data. Along the ride, you’ll learn how to find rainbows, dodge riptides, survive meteors and make gold.

    More importantly, you’ll learn four science-based methods to turn uncertainty into opportunity in nearly everything you do.

    Once you understand the science of luck, uncertainty won’t ever paralyze you. You’ll embrace it! Would you like a little more luck in your life?
