The organizations that will look back on this decade with confidence are the ones making the right AI decisions right now, building new revenue streams, transforming their operations, empowering their people, and creating the customer experiences their competitors cannot match. Ian Khan “The Futurist” is the strategist who makes that possible.

The world’s foremost Future Readiness authority and inventor of the AI Readiness Score™, Ian brings organizations two powerful entry points into AI transformation. His high-energy keynotes on industry transformation and future possibilities deliver the strategic perspective, the electrifying energy, and the audience-wide conviction that gives leadership teams the clarity and courage to move. His FutureSHIFT Workshop Series™ delivers the diagnostic, the roadmap, and the implementation sequence, across revenue growth, operational improvement, workforce amplification, customer transformation, and competitive strategy, that gives those teams the confidence that their movement is pointed in exactly the right direction.

Both engagements are built on over 500+ conversations with global business leaders and validated against documented outcomes across every major industry, making Ian equally relevant and equally impactful for a room of technology executives, financial leaders, operations managers, HR professionals, sales teams, or board members.

The brand examples Ian draws on reflect AI’s universal application:
