Keynote by Morris Misel:
We make around 35,000 decisions a day. Most of them we don’t even notice. That’s a problem. Because decision-making is the foundation of culture, strategy, leadership, wellbeing. And whether any change actually sticks.
This keynote isn’t about fixing people. It’s about surfacing the unconscious systems they use to move through the world and giving them better ways to navigate them.
Choose Forward introduces practical tools like PTFA™, Decision Trust Zones™, and the reframe of “mistakes” into mischoices so people can see where they’re drifting, reset, and start choosing again with clarity.
This session is powerful because it’s universal. It works across roles, industries, and backgrounds. And it creates something most events never do: alignment. Not because everyone agrees but because they’ve paused long enough to ask what really matters next.
Opportunities Ahead
Keynote by Morris Misel:
The way we think about jobs is broken. It’s why strategy stalls, engagement slides, and top talent quietly disconnect even in high-performing teams. We inherited a world built for predictability: job titles, hierarchy, certainty. But work isn’t linear anymore. It’s fluid a shifting mix of tasks, decisions, and interactions powered by humans, machines, and AI. This keynote is a jolt to the system.
It reframes everything:
This isn’t a talk about remote work or four-day weeks. It’s a bold redefinition of what work is, what humans are uniquely wired for, and how to future-proof the very people and systems at your core.
