Strategic Storytelling: How to Persuade, Inspire, and Move Ideas Forward

Great work doesn’t always speak for itself. And without the right narrative, even your best ideas can go unheard. This keynote teaches you how to communicate your ideas with clarity and confidence so you can gain buy-in, inspire action, and drive decisions. Drawing from over 200 high-stakes presentations advising top brands like Google, Amazon, Stripe, and Meta on design and product strategy Rinaldo delivers practical storytelling tools to present high-stakes work, navigate stakeholder dynamics, and increase your influence, no matter your role or title.

COMBAT A SYSTEM-LEVEL DISRUPTOR

Dancing on the Edge: How to Build a human Moat in an AI World

Everyone’s talking about AI. Few are asking the right questions. In this keynote, Rinaldo invites the audience to step beyond surface-level narratives and explore what it truly means to stay relevant in a world of accelerating capability. This isn’t a talk about tools, it’s a challenge to rethink your relationship with change, value, and what it means to remain unmistakably human in the age of machines.

We have received strong feedback from our attendees that Rinaldo was amazing and had super interesting insights. We were eager to have him back again this year.
