It's gonna be a good time.
Briar promises.
Most organizations are implementing AI wrong—treating it like a better search engine instead of a thinking partner. I help teams transform how they collaborate with AI through practical frameworks that get immediate results.
Available for: Keynotes | Workshops | Corporate Training
Human First AI: Building Technology That Feels Revolutionary AND Familiar
Your teams are resisting AI tools because they feel alien. This keynote explores skeuomorphic design principles—how we bridge familiar human patterns with revolutionary AI capabilities to increase adoption and reduce friction.
Perfect for: Technology companies, product teams, innovation conferences
Audience takeaway: Understanding why AI interfaces fail and how to design tools that feel intuitive while delivering transformative capabilities.
Format: 45-60 minute keynote
Backwards Prompting: Mastering AI Collaboration
Most people approach AI collaboration backwards, starting with what they have and hoping for useful output. This workshop teaches your team to architect outcomes first, then engineer the collaboration structure that delivers those results.
Perfect for: Marketing teams, consulting firms, leadership development, any team implementing AI workflows
Audience takeaway: Immediate improvement in AI output quality, reduced revision cycles, practical framework they can implement the next day.
Format: Half-day workshop (3-4 hours) or full-day intensive
Accessible Systems: Building Business Infrastructure That Works
Traditional productivity systems fail because they're built for brains that don't exist. This talk reveals how neurodivergent thinking unlocks better systems for everyone—not through accommodation, but through fundamentally better design.
Perfect for: HR teams, leadership development, inclusive workplace initiatives, startup conferences
Audience takeaway: Why "best practices" often create worst outcomes, and how to build systems that flex instead of break.
Format: 45-60 minute keynote or 90-minute interactive workshop
