Rise Above the Noise

Mark Schaefer keynote topics

Rise Above the Noise

Every business has the same priority: to be seen, to be heard and to be found. That keeps getting harder amid overwhelming competition and information density. Drawing on breakthrough research from his book Audacious, Mark lays out an actionable three-step framework that can help any business rise above the noise and reach the customers it needs.

How AI is Changing Your Customers

Built on new, original research from 300 global futurists, including Mark himself, this talk shows how AI is rewiring humanity. Basic human nature, meaning how people think, act and decide, is already changing. Mark explains that this is not science fiction but something happening now, and what it means for how businesses understand and serve their customers.

Harnessing AI for your Business

AI can seem ephemeral: just when you think you understand it, it turns in another unexpected direction. Mark acts as a guide to help organizations make sense of the AI hurricane. In his entertaining style, he connects the audience to the latest technologies and trends most relevant to their industry, so teams leave inspired and ready to act.

The New Marketing Realities

The consumer world is changing at a breakneck pace, yet most marketing initiatives remain stuck in trenches that do not connect with today’s customer realities. Mark delivers a fun, entertaining and actionable wake-up call that introduces the five pillars of marketing he sees as most useful and effective today, giving teams a clear way forward.
