Topics for Mike Walsh
- The AI powered organization
This keynote explores why now is the time for radical reinvention. ChatGPT and the rise of generative AI platforms are just the beginning of a much bigger algorithmic revolution that is set to reshape the future of work itself.
Rapid shifts in technology, customer needs and competitor dynamics allow companies to build resilience to changing environments and integrate not only cutting edge technologies but also embrace a new generation of talent.
Whether it be how we engage our customers, how we automate our processes or even how we make decisions as leaders - the ability to effectively transform data into value will be at the heart of 21st-century business. Building an AI powered organization is crucial to your company’s future survival.
In this keynote, attendees will learn:- Why AI will change the dynamics of every industry and the delivery of even the most traditional products and services.
- How to harness new ways of working, with the use of humans and algorithmic platforms.
- How to identify and develop future needs from tomorrow’s leaders and teams.
- New rules for a new world
COVID-19 is not only changing our way of life, it will hasten the arrival of a radical new future of work. While for many of us working from home has been a new and unexpected challenge - that is just the start of a much bigger transformation set to reshape the nature of business itself. In order to survive, every organization will have to virtualize.
Whether it be serving customers through digital channels or leveraging AI, algorithms and automation to ensure business continuity - we are likely to experience in the next twelve months, a decade's worth of change. Not every business will make it, but those that do will never be the same again. And for leaders, now more than ever, is a time to upgrade their capabilities, embrace new technologies, and reimagine what they do.
Mike Walsh's inspiring new keynote presentation will offer audiences an insight into the organizations and leaders that are successfully navigating this period of change, and how to create a playbook for their own transformation. Becoming future-proof is more than just about getting through the current crisis - it is about being ready for the new world that awaits us on the other side.
In this keynote, attendees will learn:- Why there is no such thing as digital disruption, just digital delivery.
- Why there is no remote work, just work.
- Why AI is not here to destroy our jobs, but it will change them.
- The algorithmic leader
We live in an age of wonder - cars that drive themselves, platforms that anticipate our needs, and robots capable of everything from advanced manufacturing to complex surgery. Automation, algorithms and AI are transforming not only business, but every facet of daily life. While many fear that robots will take their jobs, the rise of machine intelligence begs a more important question: what is the true potential of human intelligence in the 21st century?
In this dynamic keynote, Mike Walsh, futurist and author will present a vivid portrait of a brave new world orchestrated by machines that think, and how tomorrow's leaders can upgrade their capabilities to survive and thrive in an age of accelerating technology.
Audiences will walk away with an insight into the companies, technologies and global forces shaping the age of machine intelligence, as well as a set of tailored next actions on how to redesign their organizations, reimagine their roles and reinvent the way they make decisions.
In this keynote, attendees will learn:- Why competing in an age of AI requires a radically new approach to delivering data-driven experiences and personalized services.
- What it takes to accelerate your journey to becoming an AI-powered organization, and how to lead a successful process of digital transformation.
- How to unlock the new skills, capabilities and mindsets that your leaders will need to survive and thrive in the future.

Mike Walsh's session definitely resonated with our partners and helped challenge their assumptions about the future and to “think bigger” -- specifically around “how to make culture the operating system” and to consider whether they are “probabilistic” or “deterministic” in their decision-making. Again, we sincerely thank Mike for sharing his insights and we appreciate him helping us to build transformative leaders.
EY Inclusiveness Leadership Program
Amazing! I have found that some futurists and speakers simply regurgitate other people’s work without much original thought. Mike Walsh’s session was the contrary – full of original insights and humour – it gave me a number of genuinely new insights. He was also on-point during the subsequent panel discussion and complemented the other speakers.

If the future is already here then it’s certain that Mike Walsh manages somehow to insert himself into one of those little pockets of the future, have a look around, and then come back and let the rest of us know what our world will soon be like! It’s been a pleasure debating the future of media with a real visionary.

Fascinating! You should also write books on presenting technology topics to non-technology people. It’s a skill very few technologists have.

Mike Walsh was a pleasure to work with. His presentation was perfectly pitched reflecting his research prior to the event to tailor his presentation to our audience and he also took the time to meet with some of them prior to the presentation. We would highly recommend Mike to anyone interested and would love to work with him again.
