#2: The speaker’s hat
Speaking
In 2019 I stood on a stage in Southern Africa’s final of the Toastmasters championship with a speech about a chicken crossing the road, and I won. A decade of Toastmasters taught me that speaking is thinking made audible. Today I keynote on Reinvention, AI adoption and the AI-first journey, and I teach teams and leaders to communicate clearly, through talks, facilitation, and hands-on courses under my own name.
