"The session was great, I think Bruce gave a lot of good tips to evolve our culture and make it stronger and more meaningful to everyone. He shared really interesting studies that bring the subject to life!"
"Thank you Bruce Daisley for joining us at #successconnect and sharing your brilliance and humour with customers and partners. I loved the bits on decision making capacity and stress as a killer to creativity"
"Bruce has a rare combination of inquisitive intellect, creative flair and infectious leadership qualities, a great front man but also can do the detail. Importantly though he is a challenger, a challenge to manage, a challenger of mediocrity a challenger of his people and teams, of norms. Put simply a brilliant man to have on your side"
Bruce is widely regarded as one of the most respected thought leaders on workplace culture and modern work. His writing has appeared in the Washington Post, Harvard Business Review, the Wall Street Journal, The Guardian and The Daily Telegraph, and LinkedIn named him one of the world’s top 10 voices on the topic. For leadership events, that gives him a useful balance of real board-level experience and recognised thought leadership.
Bruce built his reputation inside some of the world’s most influential digital businesses. Industry leaders voted him Fantasy Hire four times, and Campaign said Twitter UK had formed a reputation as one of the most respected cultures in the media and tech industry under his leadership.
After several promotions, he left as Twitter’s most senior leader outside the US. That matters for event hosts because he speaks from direct experience, not theory, about what helps cultures thrive and what creates bad cultures.
Bruce’s keynote speaking style is warm, clear and full of practical takeaways. His own speaker bio says he regularly works with leadership teams articulating and implementing cultural programs, and client feedback on his site includes praise for an incredible presentation and a strong response from a culture conference audience. He is especially effective for organisations looking to strengthen connection, improve performance and build cultural programs that work in the real world rather than only on paper.

Following the remarkable success of his debut book, The Joy of Work reached number one in the Sunday Times charts, and his site says Fortitude was named by the Financial Times as the best business book of the year.
