I have been privileged to speak at a number of really excellent conferences. Preparing to discuss a topic with a group of fellow EPM practitioners is a great mental workout and a great motivation to dig into the fine details.

This page lists past and future engagements, along with links to the presentations where available.  In some cases these may be behind attendee-only logins, but (unless speaker agreements prohibit it) I’m always willing to share slide decks. Feel free to contact me – details on my About page – if you’d like to discuss any of these topics further.
