Our Services

Speaking & Workshops

Keynotes, retreats, and workshops for organizations ready to think harder about the future of media.

Speaking & Workshops

We bring research-backed perspective to leadership teams, newsrooms, foundations, and academic settings. Our speaking and workshop engagements are built on original research, current advisory work, and years of newsroom and institutional experience, all of which shapes sessions that move audiences from engagement into action rather than stopping at inspiration.

Whether you're programming a conference, planning a board retreat, or developing team training, we partner with you to design sessions that are grounded in the specific questions your audience actually needs to work through, not the generic talking points that show up on every panel in the field.

Speaking & Workshops

Conference Keynotes

Keynote presentations on audience trust, AI in communications, creator journalism, and the future of media. Past stages include WAN-IFRA World Congress, Saudi Media Forum, News Product Alliance, Online News Association, Sciences Po, and the Bonn Institute, among others.

Panel Moderation

Research-grounded panel moderation for conferences and institutional convenings. We bring preparation, structure, and sharp questions to panel sessions that too often default to surface-level conversation, because a well-moderated panel can be the best session of an entire event when it's done right.

Board & Executive Retreats

Custom retreat sessions for boards and leadership teams working through strategic questions about their communications, audience, or editorial future. These sessions are designed for depth rather than performance, with facilitation that creates space for the harder conversations most teams avoid.

Newsroom & Editorial Workshops

Hands-on workshops for editorial and communications teams covering topics such as AI policy and practice, audience trust, creator partnerships, and digital strategy. Each workshop is grounded in current research and tailored to the specific context of the team receiving it.

University Lectures & Academic Convenings

Lectures and research presentations in academic settings. Ongoing teaching affiliations include Brandeis University, with past engagements at a range of universities and research institutions where the conversation centers on the intersection of research and applied media strategy.

Custom Team Trainings

Bespoke trainings on AI, audience strategy, creator journalism, and editorial frameworks, designed for teams working through real-time questions about their practice rather than sitting through generic workshop content that doesn't connect to the work in front of them.
