Brian Fanzo

futurist and keynote speaker

Fanzo has built his reputation as a keynote speaker on high-energy and interactive stage presentations. He said in the LinkedIn article that he’s reinvented his approach for a digital audience by implementing other (non-sartorial) elements, such as changing perspective or introducing an interactive element every eight minutes, using five different camera angles in his home office, and forgoing slides — which forces audiences to split their attention between the speaker and a PowerPoint — and instead using custom broadcast overlays and/or Prezi video graphics. He also alternates between standing and sitting — ”depending,” he said, “on the emotional connection I want to make with my audience.” To encourage questions, he lets the audience know that whatever he doesn’t have a chance to answer in the Q&A or chat box at the end of his session, he will address in a personalized video sent to all attendees after the event.
