Connecting Research to Real-Life Decisions

For over two decades, I’ve studied how influence, persuasion, and human behavior shape the world we live in. My work asks how people are swayed, why trust matters, and what happens when manipulation blurs the line between truth and control.

Through speaking and consulting, I bring these questions into real conversations with audiences, organizations, and individuals. My goal is to make complex ideas clear and to offer practical tools for resilience and ethical decision-making in uncertain times.

Core Themes in My Work

Across keynotes, advising, and consultations, I return to a few central questions:

  • How media and culture shape influence and manipulation
  • How ethics guides decisions in organizations and daily life
  • How people respond under pressure — and what builds resilience

These themes connect everything I do — whether I’m speaking to a large audience, advising leaders, or working one-on-one.

Here are the three ways I work with audiences and clients:
