Design the session
Agree purpose, audience, context, format and duration, and what participants should understand or develop.
Speaking and workshops
Ideas that start conversations. Teams that put them to work.
I design talks and workshops on place branding, place narratives, promotion and artificial intelligence. Depth, examples and exercises are tailored to the audience and purpose, connecting ideas with practical decisions.
Learning and facilitation
A talk introduces a perspective and opens a discussion. A workshop works through a specific challenge with exercises and participant dialogue. We choose the format according to the intended result and available time.
When this can help
- Your event needs an applied perspective on place branding and promotion.
- Your team needs shared understanding and decision criteria.
- You want to bring stakeholders together around narrative, governance or communication.
How we work.
Connect ideas and cases
Prepare content and examples appropriate to the group. Workshops include exercises and materials for the selected challenge.
Facilitate and close
Guide discussion and synthesise learning. For workshops, agree how to record outputs and next steps.
What the work can deliver.
- Tailored talk

- Workshop summary
- Key ideas, initial proposals and agreements when included in the scope.
Deliverables, participation, format and timeline are agreed in the project proposal.
A clearly defined scope.
Workshops produce learning and initial inputs. A validated strategy requires additional research and development through a consultancy project. Duration, logistics, travel and materials are specified in the proposal.
