LOOKING FOR A SPEAKER FOR YOUR VIRTUAL EVENT?
Watch Greg’s virtual trailer and learn more about his online keynotes.
For the past five years, digital transformation has been the hot topic in boardrooms around the globe and digital leadership the must-have competency for executives serious about leading their organizations into the future. Still, few were prepared when the COVID-19 crisis made transformation an overnight imperative. All at once, organizations found themselves grappling with widespread closures, supply chain disruptions, and a heightened sense of urgency around digital business models — all while employees were learning how to work remotely. The good news is that most organizations are adapting in the face of these sudden changes. The bad news? It won’t be long before you’ll need to adapt again, to the next wave of change.
Greg’s signature talks on digital transformation and adaptability as a core business competency have never been more relevant than they are in today’s “never normal”.
Let business futurist and digital transformation expert Greg Verdino open your audience’s eyes to the ways in which exponential change is remaking markets, reimagining industries, and reinventing companies. He is a popular speaker who delivers high energy, thought-provoking virtual presentations loaded with actionable insights and practical ideas that any business person can use to excel at digital today and thrive as digital tomorrow.
When you hire Greg to ‘talk transformation’ at your virtual conference or company meeting, you don’t just get a great presenter — you get a practitioner. A world-class expert on the future of business and recognized digital transformation thought leader who, unlike many keynoters on the circuit, does more than just “talk the talk.”
Over the course of his 30-year career, he has worked with more than 50 of the Fortune 500; led one of the world’s first social media marketing agencies; headed the strategy team at a global social business consultancy; and has held senior leadership positions within a half-dozen scrappy technology startups. Today, he is an in-demand consultant who helps business leaders build thriving future-ready organizations by embracing digital change, creating new digital opportunities, and formulating bold digital strategies for transformational growth.
His ideas have appeared in dozens of mainstream media outlets including Bloomberg BusinessWeek, CNBC, Cablevision News12, Fox Business News, Investors Business Daily, Newsday and the Wall Street Journal. And his acclaimed book microMARKETING: Get Big Results By Thinking and Acting Small taught marketers that mattering a lot to the right people trumps marketing a little to everyone.
Greg’s speeches entertain and inspire. But more importantly they deliver fresh, bold ideas and practical, actionable takeaways that attendees can apply to create exciting digital futures for their businesses and themselves.
Each customized keynote combines up-to-the-moment insights about digital’s transformative effects on leadership, culture, marketing, customer experience, and innovation with vivid, industry-relevant examples that ‘speak your audience’s language.’ Greg draws powerful connections between the accelerating pace of exponential change and the actions attendees can take to create exponential value for their companies, customers and careers.
