Keynotes & Workshops

In an ever more complex world, simplicity wins.


Based on my book, It Just Works: The Nine Simple Rules of Apple’s Success, I show leaders and teams how to simplify what they do and leverage simplicity as a competitive advantage. I'll help you make better things, focus on what matters, drive change and get the most from AI.


I offer a range of keynotes and interactive workshops:

Simple Focus
Complexity is the most expensive tax your organisation pays. I'll help you pay less. Learn how to eliminate distractions, sharpen priorities and focus your energy on what matters most. Learn more.


Simplifying Change

Change doesn't have to be painful. Apple has convinced billions of us to embrace the new. How? By making each step of the journey so simple that change feels intuitive and worthwhile. Learn more.


Simplicity: The AI Multiplier 

AI won’t fix complexity. It will amplify it. Discover why organisations that simplify first get far more value from AI than those that don’t. Learn more.
