Speaking & Keynotes
Conversations on AI, leadership and what doesn't change.
I speak to boards, leadership teams, conferences and universities on the practical questions of AI strategy, governance and transformation — and on the human qualities that remain valuable when the tools around us keep changing.
Speaking Topics
AI in the Boardroom
What boards need to ask — and own — about AI strategy, risk and accountability. Drawing on experience as an independent board director, committee chair and former CEO, this session moves from ambition to practical governance.
Suitable for: boards, supervisory committees, executive leadership teams.
Timeless Intelligence
What doesn't age in the age of AI. Based on the book Zamansız Zekâ / Timeless Intelligence, this keynote explores four qualities — action, curiosity, resilience and authenticity — that create lasting value as the tools around us change.
Suitable for: universities, leadership programmes, conferences, corporate all-hands.
Turning AI Ambition into Delivery
AI programmes need a clear owner, a baseline and a way to measure progress. This session addresses the gap between ambition and value — based on 25+ years of transformation delivery across consulting, corporate leadership and technology investing.
Suitable for: enterprise leadership teams, transformation programmes, investor forums.
Women, Leadership and the Long Game
A personal and professional account of building a career across geographies, industries and transitions — and what the next generation of leaders can draw from it. Grounded in the stories behind Zamansız Zekâ.
Suitable for: women's leadership platforms, universities, mentorship programmes.
