Instructor-Led Seminar
My flagship, 4-week, online, instructor-led training. Learn to design trustworthy data products that sell, and get used.
If you or your team are making data products, services, or solutions that are going to involve human users making decisions and taking actions with the information, then you're already doing design—even if you don't see it that way today. While it's getting easier to technically build AI solutions, predictive models, and data products, what eludes many software and data professionals is how to get these solutions into production, make the product resonate with customers and delight the stakeholders who only care about value and outcomes.

I would absolutely highly recommend Brian's seminar. Without a doubt.
“I hadn’t heard of Brian before, but I had been enjoying his podcast and way of thinking, and on a leap of faith, I decided to bring him in to train my data science and analytics managers and leads. And after completing our first training, I can safely say there is no risk associated with this seminar. One of my goals was to change my team’s mindset about putting users at the center of our work, and I am already starting to see a positive change, though a long journey ahead of us. You get some tangible, real-world tools that are practical and applicable, so it’s not just “theoretical.” My head of data science also now sees UX and design as a must-have in his team’s advanced analytics projects, not a nice-to-have. I would absolutely highly recommend the seminar without a doubt, and plan to have more of my team take the seminar in the future”

Switching my mindset from outputs to outcomes was a total game changer for me.
“Brian's more practical, targeted approach in this seminar has been very beneficial as it was focused specifically on designing data products with UX in mind. It’s not every time you can meet someone, ask questions and get useful responses, and I was able to do that in Brian’s seminar. In addition to realizing some of the common mistakes I had been making, I also had a big aha moment: understanding outcomes versus outputs. This is more valuable than some of the tactical things because you shift your frame of mind and it’s a total game changer. The way you interact with your users and develop and deliver a solution completely changes. That’s the power of that wisdom. I’ll be referring back to the content and videos from the seminar now and again, and I’d definitely recommend this seminar to other technical product managers.”

Speaking Engagements + Keynotes
Design is the connective tissue that makes B2B AI and analytics trustworthy, usable, and actionable. I’ll inspire your audience to think like a modern design-powered data product leader.
Change sometimes begins with inspiration. If you believe your data science, analytics, or BI team needs a dose of inspiration about customer-centricity, human-centered design and value creation, considering hiring me for a 45-minute private talk (online) with your org, followed by a traditional and reverse Q/A discussion.
In my talk, we'll look at the mistakes I see data teams making, how a product orientation helps produce value more rapidly, and strategies a team can begin practicing right away. Immediately following the talk, we'll open it up for Q/A and a lively discussion—so your team's culture can take the first step towards changing how it builds data products. That's right: I'll also be asking your team the questions they need to hear and projecting the responses live in real-time.
And why would I be a good speaker for your organization?
I'm consistently rated highly as a speaker (view testimonials), probably in part due to my professional background in music as a drummer/percussionist. I've performed in front of audiences of over 100,000 people, host a 5-star podcast in the top 2% of all shows worldwide, and have spoken on international stages. My inspiring style mixes fun, sarcasm, passion, and the occasional tambourine solo. Why? Because the data alone won't convince anyone! These talks also work well as a precursor to my private training Seminar.

Brian created real awareness…well-attended talk with solid interaction and attendance…I am certain we delivered value to our community.
Brian has spoken several times for IIA, most recently as the key guest on a webinar we hosted on "AI Product Management". The topic is hyper relevant, so naturally it was a well-attended talk with solid interaction and excellent retention…Over 80% of our registrants stayed until the end. Brian created a real awareness around the importance of product design and management as critical functions in the deployment of human-centered data products, AI solutions, and analytics. I also appreciated how he made the talk more engaging by allowing one of our clients from Steelcase to reflect on his own experience applying several of the strategies for which Brian advocated. In the end, I am certain we delivered value to our IIA clients and community members.
