Speaking

Regulation,
explained to
people who build.

I teach this material to engineering master's students at Ghent University, which is good training for making it land with people who did not choose to care about it. Keynotes, workshops, guest lectures and expert panels, in English or Dutch.

Booking

What I need to confirm a date.

Date, audience, room size, and what you want them to do differently on Monday. That last one shapes the talk more than the topic does.
