Speaking & Advisory Engagements

Deana Nannskog works with organisations, leadership teams and event audiences navigating AI transformation, capability building, innovation systems and the future of work.

Engagements are shaped around context, audience and strategic relevance. The figures below indicate starting levels for common formats.

Most requested engagement

Keynote + Executive Capability Session

A keynote for the wider audience, followed by a focused leadership dialogue that translates the ideas into priorities, conditions and next steps. The most effective combination for organisations that want shared language and immediate leadership action.

What you can expect

  • Board members will understand the strategic risk profile of AI transformation from a capability standpoint

  • Strategic implications and risk landscape

Advisory & Strategic Work

  • The engagement concludes with strategic clarity, practical outputs and defined next steps

Typical format

  • Discovery conversation and scope definition
  • Advisory rhythm shaped to organisational context
  • Working sessions, strategic outputs and decision support
  • Long-term capability building and transformation support

All fees are starting points and may vary depending on scope, geography, preparation, format and strategic complexity.

Which format is right?

Keynote

Choose a keynote if you need shared language and momentum - for a conference, leadership gathering or organisational moment where the audience needs a new frame.

Executive Session

Choose an executive session if your leadership team needs alignment and translation into action - turning strategic intent into a shared capability picture.

Board Briefing

Choose a board briefing if decision-makers need to understand strategic capability risk - what AI transformation demands of the organisation, and what the board needs to ask.

Advisory

Choose advisory if you need deeper support over time - capability mapping, system design, transformation framing or ongoing strategic capability building.

Every engagement is built for its context

Deana does not deliver off-the-shelf talks or standardised programmes. Each engagement starts with a conversation about the audience, the strategic moment and the value the organisation needs to create.

That tailoring takes preparation. Preparation is part of what makes the engagement land. It is also why the figures above reflect a starting point, not a ceiling.
