AI Keynote Speaker · Executive Adviser · Founder of Decision Intelligence
Cassie Kozyrkov is CEO of Kozyr and one of the clearest voices in artificial intelligence. As Google’s first Chief Decision Scientist, she led the company’s shift to an AI-first organisation, personally training more than 20,000 Googlers and shaping over 500 company initiatives.
She founded the field of Decision Intelligence and has advised leaders at NASA, Gucci, HSBC, Spotify, Vodafone and Meta. She also served a full term on the Federal Reserve Bank of New York’s Innovation Advisory Council.
On stage, Cassie pairs deep technical knowledge with theatre-trained charisma. She has spoken in more than 40 countries across all seven continents, including the UN, the World Economic Forum, Web Summit and SXSW. Audiences laugh, call out answers and leave with ideas they can put into practice on Monday morning.
Her new MasterClass, Data-Driven Decision Making in the Age of AI, features a guest appearance from DJ Patil.
Keynote 1 – for executives and aspiring leaders
When AI Can Act, Leadership Must Change: How to Steer Your Organisation Through the Next Wave
As AI moves from answering questions to taking action, leadership itself changes. Cassie shows why AI investments fall short and how leaders can rethink their role, redesign systems and turn AI activity into measurable results across the organisation.
Keynote 2 – for broad and mixed audiences
Stop Chasing AI and Start Getting Ahead: How to Make AI Work for You, Not the Other Way Around
Getting ahead isn’t about keeping up with every new tool. In this funny, energising talk, Cassie shows that the most valuable AI skill is knowing what’s worth trying. Audiences leave feeling capable, confident and ready to act.
Not sure which fits? Cassie can blend both into one tailored talk. She also does fireside chats, panels and executive roundtables.
“Her session isn’t just a presentation; it’s a lightbulb moment waiting to happen.”
– Jack McCullough, Founder and President, CFO Leadership Council
