I promote dialogic learning, conversations in which we all speak, listen and learn. As a speaker I bring broad experience and specific expertise; I frame the context of a conversation, present my perspective, invite audience participation, am an active listener, prioritize clarity over consensus and show my respect for those who may disagree with me.

Examples of my presentation topics include:

1. Workforce and economic development
2. Executive coaching and leadership development
3. Systems transformation: demographic change, policies, programs, budgets and personnel
4. The Creative Economy and its workforce
5. War, peacemaking and veterans services
6. Organized labor and climate jobs
7. Technology and the transformation of work
8. Reflective practitioners, writing and storytelling
