Keynotes & Leadership Sessions

I talk about leadership the way it actually happens, not the polished version we usually hear from stage.

Most speakers talk about leadership from the win. I talk about where it broke, what it cost, and what actually fixed it, because that's the version people remember.

Every session is practical, conversational and grounded in real organizational experience, giving leaders ideas they can apply immediately rather than inspiration that fades by Monday morning.

Why Organizations Invite Me

Organizations don't invite me to deliver a motivational talk. They invite me to help leaders think differently about the challenges they're already facing - AI transformation, organizational change, leadership capability and the pressures that come with them.

I've spoken at the Open Data Science Conference, Women in Data, ATD Talent Sessions, delivered sessions for Wayfair on retention and culture, and led employee resource group sessions on communication and confidence.

I’ve led large teams, run offices, and managed P&Ls - so when I talk about leadership, it's from doing the job, not studying it, and because that experience is inside Data & AI specifically, I understand how AI is changing what organizations now expect from their leaders.

Featured Keynote

From AI Adoption to Enterprise Capability

Most organizations are no longer asking whether to adopt AI. They're asking why the investment isn't delivering the return they expected.

This keynote explores the leadership capability required to turn AI investment into organizational performance. Drawing on more than a decade in Data & AI and extensive work with leadership teams, Jenni shares why decision-making, executive effectiveness, accountability and organizational capability - not technology alone - are becoming the defining factors in successful AI transformation.

Sessions Include:

  • Decision Drag: The Invisible Cost Inside Leadership Teams

  • Leadership Capability in an Era of Constant Change

  • Turning Strategy Into Execution

  • The Leadership Infrastructure Every Organization Needs

  • Leading Through Uncertainty

  • From Expert to Leader

What Audiences Say

“There are a lot of aspects of our day to day that we don't really pay attention to, and that just go through with stress and anxiety - this session helped me to 'take a breath', and be me instead of being reactive.”

“Jenni’s background and experience was great to hear! Sometimes a friendly reminder that we all have different starting points in life but it doesn't mean we can't accomplish tough goals.”

“Imposter syndrome is a real thing that I feel, so knowing so many others leaders feel the same way... it made me sad but also made me realize, we're all amazing and don't feel that way!”
