01
Adoption is the outcome
Go-live is not the finish line. Why change efforts stall after launch, and what it took to get 84% of 102 sellers, and 15,000 end users, to actually adopt something new.
Speaking
Change only counts when people adopt it.
I speak about adoption and change management: why people take on something new, why they don't, and why the best leaders still think like teachers. Expect practical stories, real numbers and at least one lightbulb.

Signature topics
Talks I give.
02
Lead like a teacher
What a classroom teaches you about leading adults through change: meet people where they are, show them why it matters, and stay until it is theirs.
03
Initiative fatigue: when people run out of room for change
From my doctoral research on teacher retention: why well-led teams still burn out when new initiatives land faster than old ones can be absorbed, and the three things leaders can fix: how change is communicated, protected time, and support that is built in.
04
Technology adoption is just adoption
New tools in schools and companies, AI included, succeed or fail on the same human factors as any other change. Access is not relevance: how to bring people along instead of rolling it out at them.
Every talk is tailored to the audience. Custom topics welcome.
