AI & Future of Work Keynote Speakers – Curated Insights & Example Shortlist

Artificial intelligence is reshaping how organizations operate, innovate, and lead. It is changing decision-making, team structures, customer experience, and productivity at a pace that challenges even the most seasoned leaders. While many companies are experimenting with AI, fewer truly understand how to generate business value, reduce resistance, and lead people confidently through change.

This is where the right AI & Future of Work keynote speaker can make a measurable difference.

At Scurati, we do not offer long lists or generic speaker directories. Instead, we create a 3+1 curated shortlist tailored to your event’s goals, audience, and desired impact. The example shortlist below demonstrates how our curation process works — and what you can expect when you request your own personalized shortlist.

As former Chief AI Officer at a global enterprise, Mark has built AI Centers of Excellence and driven adoption at scale. He explains how to identify high-impact use cases, stand up cross-functional squads, and measure value iteratively. Drawing from B2B transformations, he shares CX, pricing, and operations cases that moved the needle. He outlines pragmatic governance—model lifecycle, risk controls, and literacy programs—that accelerate trust. Leaders receive a clear 90/180/365-day adoption roadmap.

Why Scurati recommends him:
Senior managers benefit from his in-the-trenches playbook on scaling what works. He frames simple guardrails and decision rights that organisations can adopt the next morning.

The +1 Wildcard

The Wildcard highlights a speaker who sits slightly outside the obvious choices — someone who brings a fresh angle, unexpected perspective, or different energy to the topic. While the other three recommendations are direct, high-fit matches based on your briefing, the Wildcard is intentionally more exploratory.
It introduces a speaker who can spark new thinking, shift the room’s mindset, or elevate the experience in a surprising way.
Often, this “out-of-the-box” voice becomes the most memorable part of the event.

Angela Chee

Communication Coach | Keynote Speaker

Core Message:
Angela equips leaders to communicate AI transformation with clarity, empathy, and authority. She shows how to translate technical initiatives into narratives that align teams and reduce resistance. Through practical exercises and message frameworks, managers learn to handle tough AI questions, set expectations, and maintain morale. She bridges human-centered communication with the realities of AI-enabled work.

Why Scurati recommends her (Wildcard):
If leaders already understand the use cases but need confidence to bring people along, Angela is a differentiator. Her session can set up a leadership communication agreement for AI initiatives.

How does Scurati select AI keynote speakers?

Through a tailored 3+1 curation process based on your event goals, audience, sector, and desired impact. No catalogue — only relevant matches.

Can Scurati help with availability and booking flow?

Yes. Once you choose a speaker, a senior Scurati consultant guides you through the entire process — from checking availability and securing the date to managing contracts, briefing alignment, preparation calls, and on-site logistics.
This end-to-end “white-glove” support ensures a smooth, clear and professional booking experience, so you can focus fully on your event.

How are the speaker recommendations curated if the matching is fully AI-driven?

Scurati’s AI generates the 3+1 shortlist automatically. The human curation happens before the matching process — during the creation and refinement of our speaker database.
