Biography

Nick Jankel, a Cambridge-educated medical scientist and philosopher (Triple 1st/summa cum laude), has spent 30 years cracking the code of leading and landing transformation and innovation. With 28 years of experience serving the growth of ambitious organizations like Nike, Unilever, Intel, Virgin, PlayStation, and Novartis and 25 years walking the talk as a high-impact, purpose-led entrepreneur on the frontlines of disruption, Nick is a lodestar of vision, velocity, values-driven business, and exponential value-creation for those navigating change, complexity, and uncertainty.

A highly experienced and sought-after professional mainstage/headliner speaker at the very top of his game, Nick is booked by companies, conferences, institutions, associations, and nations—think Nike, LEGO, Unilever, Abu Dhabi, Pfizer, Google, No.10—who seek an unprecedented ROI from electrifying, exquisitely-customized, and science-backed keynotes that expand minds, captivate hearts & ignite change.

Nick’s keynotes help people thrive in change/complexity, unlock digital transformation/innovation, and become truly transformational as leaders and team members. He has cutting-edge talks on what is probable, possible, problematic, and provocative in the Future of Work, Health, Tech, Leadership, and Regenerative Business.
