For all audiences:
Dreaming Big: The Mountains Between Dreaming and Achieving

This talk has nothing to do with technology! Rather, it's about the dissapointment, excitement, rejection, exhiliration, frustration, and failure that comes with chasing big dreams. It's about self management, time management, overcoming obstacles, dealing with depression, believing in yourself, and the unique set of challenges people face when they pursue their dreams.

 

 

For Consumer Electronics Manufacturers:
It’s All About Lifestyle: Why Focusing on Lifestyle Will Create Raving Consumer Evangalists

In a world where technology develops at breakneck speeds and ads touting the latest “must-have” products scream at consumers every day, technology companies must shout out their products’ and services’ life-improvement value from the mountain tops. Communicate to your customers how your technology can improve people’s lives, and they will come in droves – with credit cards in hand.

For Consumer Electronics Manufacturers:
What Consumers Want:
How to Communicate about What Your Customers Really Want From Your Products

Alex talks to consumers every day about the technology they use. He's constantly asking questions about what works, what doesn't, and what consumers wish their products could do for them. Alex also knows how consumers want to be communicated to about high-tech products. What would make them buy your specific products? Alex will ask consumers, and then put together a presentation or workshop to answer that question.

"Well done, Alex! You deliver boring topics in a very interesting way. Your insights and delivery are effective because of your humor."
— Brad Bode, Midwest Facilitators Network

For I.T. Departments:
The I.T. Gap: Bridging the Distance between the I.T. Department and the Rest of the Company

The I.T. Gap typically consists of communication, perception and expectation issues that disconnect a company's technology department from every other department in the company. As with all his presentations, Alex will interview your I.T. staff, as well as end-users, to paint an accurate picture of your I.T. Gap, and then lay out steps for bridging it.
