“Every great event tells a story.
I help yours shine”
EVENT MODERATION
Turning events into shared journeys
Most events are a series of speakers with great points but no shared story. Audiences leave inspired, but unsure what it all meant — or how it connects.
I shape a guided journey for your audience by weaving individual talks into a bigger, shared narrative — so your event feels cohesive, purposeful, and powerful.
Who is it for?
I am in my element starting conversations about how people feel about their work.
My moderation works best for:
Leadership offsites and retreats
Culture and employee experience conferences
Future of work events and conferences
Internal / external leadership forums
HR / People & Culture Conferences
Change Management activities
Key Message
Serious fun—curious exploration, playful problem-solving, and getting out of our comfort zones—is the core skill for reconnecting your teams with the missing spark, a renewed sense of purpose, and the agency to shape their experience of work.
What It Covers
-
Ross’s radical story of losing—and then rediscovering—meaning through fun jobs
-
The science of meaningful work, plus a visceral business and human case for why it matters
-
A simple, powerful framework for making work feel meaningful
-
Interactive stories and insights from the Fun Jobs Project—from the opera stage to the ski slopes
-
The core insight: fun and playful exploration isn’t a distraction—it’s a skill
-
How to start applying serious fun immediately—in your role, your team, and your culture
Planning a leadership, future of work, or change management event?
I bring my trademark warmth, subject expertise, and serious fun to ignite the room and keep your audience hooked.
But why stop there?
-
A simple framework—and a felt understanding—of what makes work meaningful and how it drives culture and performance
-
A clear sense of why this matters: both the business case and the personal inspiration to lead with authenticity, purpose, and spark
-
Concrete tools to spark meaning and energy in their own roles and teams—starting immediately

The results
Audiences become the main character in a gripping shared story
The conference makes sense, feels grounded, and makes a bigger impact
The audience feel part of a shared journey - deeper connections are made
Your event builds to a crescendo that sparks action
Let’s start the conversation
I flip the standard event moderation script on its head.
Think of it like a modular keynote talk.
I build a narrative throughline — with each speaker building on the last and expanding a core element of the story.
How it works
I use my Serious Fun Meaningful Work model to anchor the event with a core theme and coherent structure
Between talks - I introduce short, interactive “bites”, fun, insightful moments that spark reflection
and connection, setting the stage for the Speaker
Each speaker becomes part of the bigger conversation — their voice and impact are elevated
