The Leadership Mindshift: The Six-Stage Mindset Shift to That Helps Every Leader Shape the Future, Right Now

Most transformations don’t succeed because they’re trying to build tomorrow with
yesterday’s assumptions, metrics, and mindsets. When the world changes faster than the organization can adapt, even the best strategies stall in the same place: “We’ve
always done it this way.”

In this energizing keynote, Brian Solis introduces the six-stage Mindshift cycle:

1)Receive

2) Perceive

3) Weave

4) Conceive

5) Believe

6) Achieve.

The Mindshift framework empowers leaders can use to reframe disruption into possibility, convert uncertainty into strategy, and move from reactive change to intentional reinvention.

Audiences learn how to spot signals early, connect dots others miss, and create the
belief and momentum required to lead people through uncertainty, while helping them see the role they play in transformation. It’s equal parts inspiration and a usable blueprint…helping leaders define a future worth building and then rally their teams to make it real.

When Intelligence is Abundant and Human Agency is Scarce: How True Leaders Scale Vision, Creativity, and Courage with AI

You compete with AI. AI isn’t here to replace you. It’s here to help you augment…to more effectively compete with AI. The winners in 2026 won’t just be the people who “use AI.” They’ll be the people who know how to think and collaborate with it…to do what what’s possible without AI and what AI couldn’t do without you. That’s the AI mindshift. It helps people unlock “WWAID” to use AI to work beyond efficiency and productivity.

This keynote is designed to reduce fear, build fluency, and empower teams and employees with AI…to embrace AI with confidence and enthusiasm. Brian Solis shows audiences how to move from basic prompting to context prompting and augmented prompting. He introduces the “AI mindshift” that starts by asking, What Would AI Do? (WWAID)

The result is better decisions, better creativity, better outcomes…work that’s genuinely impossible without AI, and certainly impossible without those who attend this session.

The Innovation Game: How Leaders Can Build a Culture of Innovation to Turn Uncertainty into Opportunity

Digital and Darwinism is reshaping markets and behaviors, and it’s only accelerating.
Most companies don’t lack ideas, they lack vision, leadership, and culture that can
create belief, clarity, and courage. And in this model, AI, humanoids, quantum, and other important trends, can distract from what truly matters. This keynote is for executives navigating constant disruption, internal politics, and innovation theater.

Brian has published several award-winning research studies that explore successful
corporate and culture innovation initiatives and has advised companies on their
innovation strategies.

This session maps how leaders take a step back, assess real threats and unseen
opportunities, to set a new vision, build cultures that bring that vision to life, and drive change that puts technology to work, for people…supported by bold vision, modern metrics, and an operating system that turns curiosity into execution.

Why Experience is the Brand: The New Playbook for CX Innovation in an Era of Digital Customers and AI Expectations

Brian wrote one of the world’s “best customer experience” books of all time. In today’s
AI + Attention Economy, customers have more power, more options, and more tools to
evaluate options and brands instantly. Expectations are being reset by the best
experiences in every category.

Customers now research, compare, and decide with AI copilots before they ever visit
your site, store, or contact center. Attention spans are shorter, patience is thinner,
movements faster, but intentional. Brian frames the modern customer as the “accidental narcissist”: not selfish, but self-directed…empowered by technology, and expecting every interaction to be personal, immediate, and validating.

In this keynote, he will introduce a modern formula for competing through experience:
BX + CX + UX = X, where X is your “Signature” Advantage.
