Professor of Strategy and Entrepreneurship
London Business School

Speaking

I regularly give keynote speeches at business conferences but specifically also at company meetings, for instance a firm’s annual Top 100 meeting. I do not have a standard talk that I roll out but, instead, adapt the keynote to the specific interest of the audience. It usually concerns issues related to strategic transformation, strategy execution, managing innovation, or organisational culture.
