The AI Mullet™ KeynoteAn AI keynote from someone who actually runs the room.

Most people on this topic predict the future. I have to fill a room and hit a number. Your audience has sat through the hype reel and the tool tour already. I give them one practical, human rule for where AI belongs and where they need to stay in front. Humans in front. AI in back.

For customer events, sales kickoffs, leadership meetings, and industry conferences.

Audience takeaways

What people leave with.

Not a list of tools that will be out of date by the next quarter. A clearer way to decide where AI belongs, what work it should support, and where humans have to stay in front.

A better question

From "what can AI do?"

To "what outcome matters, and where does human attention create the most value?" The question that actually leads somewhere.

A usable model

Process. Prioritize. Perform.

Put AI in back to process the signal and prioritize what matters, so people can perform where trust is built.

A real next step

Fewer, better bets

How to spot the AI use cases worth changing behavior for, instead of chasing prompts, novelty, and disconnected pilots.

Where it fits

Built for rooms where trust is the whole point.

The keynote is tailored to your audience and your theme. It lands hardest where the people in the room sell, lead, host, or build relationships for a living.

Customers

Customer events

Give attendees a frame that respects their intelligence.

A human-centered take on AI that fits a room you have invited your best customers and prospects into.

Sales

Sales kickoffs

Point a sales team at AI without telling them to outsource trust.

Where AI makes a seller sharper and more present, and where it never belongs in front of the buyer.

Leadership

Leadership & conferences

Replace AI anxiety with a decision-making lens.

A practical operating model for event leaders deciding where AI belongs and where a human has to stay in front, not another doom-or-hype talk.

Pick the room you are filling

Choose the kind of room

Mixed room, short attention

A point of view they can repeat at dinner.

Practitioners, vendors and executives in one room, most of them tired of AI talks. They leave with one frame that survives the hallway, and a reason to argue about it with somebody.

Your own team, high stakes

Permission to stop running twenty pilots.

The room usually knows the AI effort is scattered. This gives them shared language for where AI belongs, and a way to say no to the demos that were never going to change the work.

Customers watching closely

Proof you take their relationship seriously.

Customers are wary of being automated at. This says the opposite out loud, in front of them, and shows what it looks like when the intelligence stays backstage.

Why me on this stage

I run the room before I talk about it.

I am not a keynote speaker who discovered events. I built a top-rated one, wrote the book on event marketing, and spent twenty years selling and following up for a living. The frame comes from the work.

91.5% of Sales Success Summit attendees call it the best event they have attended.

The credentials behind the keynote.

This is a stage I have earned from the operator's seat, not the speaker's.

200+ top sellers interviewed.
Author, Making Rain with Events.
