I’ve come to love the virtual presentation experience, but I must admit I’ve missed speaking in front of a live audience. So, when a repeat client asked if I would keynote their in-person, hybrid event, I said yes!
After two years of work, we were incredibly excited to finally see Zconomy published by HarperCollins and even more excited when it became a #1 New Release on Amazon!
I am excited to share the biggest news of my speaking career! I was inducted into the Speaker Hall of Fame! Check out the fun, short video from the awards ceremony.
When large in-person gatherings cannot be held, a spectacular virtual speaker can make all the difference in keeping engagement levels high and driving results. I look forward to working with you to deliver an amazing virtual event!

Sincethe pandemic spread from country to country in the early part of the year, many graduating seniors have been reexamining their plans going forward, according to a new survey.

Colleges and universities across the U.S. were forced to rapidly move to an online format or close completely this past March as they quickly tried to adapt to a situation most have never encountered before: a global pandemic.

The last month has been a challenging time, and employees, customers, and colleagues are looking to company founders for leadership and guidance.

As a Gen Z researcher and author of the soon-to-be-released book Zconomy, I spoke with USA TODAY about how the pandemic is impacting generations differently. It is already clear that the COVID-19 is profoundly impacting Gen Z. Moreover, there are clear-cut signs as to what it will mean for the generation that comes after.
In this time of uncertainty surrounding economic, health, and mobility, it is crucial to learn how people are coping with the COVID-19 pandemic. As a generational researcher who has led more than 65 generational studies around the world, it is clear that this pandemic is the Generational Defining Moment for Gen Z. So, what does that mean?
As I shared with Axios in their recent article, “COVID-19 is going to be the 9/11 of the Gen Z generation.” Yet the extent of the current crisis is unknown, especially as it is still unfolding in real-time. How all of these rapid changes to daily life affect people’s mental health is not yet fully realized (though it will likely have negative effects).
As a generational researcher and strategist, I am closely researching the impact of COVID-19 on Gen Z. The oldest members of this rapidly-emerging generation are already 24 years old. My team is monitoring how the pandemic will change the attitudes, behaviors, and expectations of this generation.
