Are you seeking a speaker who can take complex communications topics and make them relevant and simple to understand? Do you need someone to demystify the changes going on around us? And to do so in a highly dynamic style that keeps your audience engaged and interactive?
For over 20 years I have given hundreds of presentations to groups ranging from tens to thousands of participants, from CEOs and CTOs to hard-core developers, from high-level business-focused talks to deep technical dives, from full-day tutorial sessions to fast 10-minute talks... and everything in between.
On this page I list many of my public presentations. I would be delighted to speak at your event or to your company or organization on a variety of topics. Please contact me.
FYI, I often make my slides available on SlideShare at either slideshare.net/danyork or slideshare.net/deploy360. (Older presentations may be found at slideshare.net/voxeo.)
