"Quand tu fais appel à un zèbre, tu lui demandes pas d'enlever ses rayures !"
Ludo (Gilles Lellouche) dans Ma vie en l'air - Rémi Bezançon - 2005

Depuis 10 ans maintenant j'aime bien gratter et provoquer partout où je passe, pour comprendre comment fonctionnent les choses (organisations, interactions humaines, business model, ...) et pourquoi on ne ferait pas autrement.

Aimant toucher à tout j'interviens au sein de plusieurs collectifs, dans plusieurs domaines, pour arriver à mes fins : imaginer et se projeter dans le futur, repenser les organisations et les manières de travailler, interroger le positionnement et la valeur des offres (produits et services), travailler la prise de parole et la mise en récit.

J'aime beaucoup Gaston Lagaffe, les Casseurs Flowters, les joggings et les casquettes. Et les Dinosaurus aussi.

You need a speaker who doesn’t just hold attention-but electrifies a room. That’s me. I’m Karis Gill, multi–award-winning founder, storytelling strategies, and the go-to speaker for businesses ready to harness the neuroscience of storytelling to drive real action.

With over 100 high-impact workshops and keynotes delivered across industries, I bring high energy, sharp humour, and strategies that stick. My sessions are known for getting audiences laughing, scribbling furious notes, and walking away saying: “Why has no one taught us this before?”

Because no one teaches you how to sell, lead, or pitch through story. That’s where I come in. I show you the neuroscience and how the brain is wired for story, why decision-makers buy with emotion, not logic- and how to craft business stories that move people. This isn’t fluffy theory. It’s science-backed storytelling that gives your team an unfair advantage.

As a founder, I’ve generated multi–seven-figure revenues over the last 5 years, using the exact storytelling principles I now teach. Whether I’m delivering a keynote to thousands or running an intimate workshop for your team, my goal is the same: to make you better at storytelling than 99% of people you’ll ever meet.

If you're ready to stop sounding like everyone else and start speaking in a way that connects, converts, and compels- let’s talk.

Madison Rolley

Madison Rolley

Madison Rolley is a travel strategist and digital educator helping over 270,000 travelers move through the world with more clarity, strategy, and ease.

Through her short-form educational content and digital tools, she is redefining what modern, accessible travel can look like for a new generation.

Across Instagram and TikTok, Madison has built a highly engaged community of over 270,000 in under three years by focusing on clarity-first travel strategy, calm content, and high-impact systems.

Her short-form videos — which have helped hundreds of thousands plan trips for a fraction of the cost — have driven impressive traffic, including one TikTok video that surpassed 30 million views. One organic viral post sent thousands of visitors to a travel deal company’s website and social channels, resulting in 10,000+ new followers, 10,000+ email subscribers, a temporarily crashed site, and more than 30,000 new community members who now trust Rolley for travel insights and strategy.

Her flagship product, the Travel Tuesday Hub, organizes real-time global travel deals into a filterable, streamlined platform — giving users the ability to find and book smarter during the most competitive travel deal season. The Hub launched with over 500 paid users in its first campaign, entirely through organic content.

Her audience doesn’t follow her for aesthetics — they follow her because they trust her. Her work has been highlighted in Business Insider, Newsweek, The Washington Post, and more.

Since taking her first solo trip at 19 while studying abroad in the south of France, Madison has gone on to visit 20+ countries across three continents. Now 27, she continues to empower travelers around the world and lead by example — building tools, systems, and storytelling that are reshaping how modern travelers move.

Adrian Alexander of New York

Adrian Alexander of New York

Adrian Alexander of New York, born in Bucharest, Romania, in 1946, emigrated to the United States in 1964 after completing high school. Holding dual U.S. and Italian citizenships, his early days in America were marked by adversity; his father passed away just six months after their arrival. He rose to the challenge, supporting his mother while pursuing his education. He earned a Master’s in Electrical Engineering from NYU Engineering School in 1970 and an MBA from Harvard Business School in 1972.

His academic excellence during these challenging times set the stage for his successful career. He began in investment banking, recruited by Morgan Stanley & Co. from Harvard, where he worked for three years before moving to Lehman Brothers Kuhn Loeb as VP of Mergers and Acquisitions.

In 1978, his career took him to Milan, Italy, where he worked for the executive search firm Egon Zehnder, recruiting executives for multinational clients until 1983. He spent most of the subsequent decades working in Italy, reflecting his deep ties and commitment to his European origins.

Upon returning to the U.S., he demonstrated his entrepreneurial spirit by acquiring and revitalizing Minneapolis Sport, a struggling sporting goods store franchise, which he successfully sold to its franchisees. His knack for transformation was further evidenced from 1987 to 1990 when he joined Polly Peck International, Plc as Vice President of Acquisitions, notably acquiring Del Monte Fresh Fruit Company and developing the company’s strategy in Eastern Europe.

He continued to leverage his extensive experience by advising a regional corporate stationer from 1991 to 1994, guiding it to become a $2 billion multinational office products distributor. Subsequently, he served as the principal of a boutique investment bank, specializing in emerging healthcare companies and securing crucial venture capital investments.

In 1996, he founded the Phoenix Real Estate Fund in New York, acquiring and managing over 200 properties before selling the fund at the end of 1999. He then established Technology Seed Capital in 2000, an early-stage venture capital fund that supported technology startups for three years.

His innovative approach to business continued with his partnership with Limores.net, a pioneering online platform for ground transportation, from 2004 to 2006. He also managed an imaging center in Astoria, New York, from 2006 to 2014, which he successfully turned around and sold.

In 2010, he founded Health Settlement, LLC, a lender for personal injury cases, eventually partnering with U.S. Claims, a Blackstone company, in 2014.

On a personal note, Adrian Alexander is a dedicated family man. He celebrates significant anniversaries and milestones with his wife and children. He also enjoys the strategic complexities of chess and poker, where he applies his analytical skills and strategic thinking.

Adrian Alexander of New York’s journey from a Romanian immigrant to a successful American entrepreneur showcases his resilience, strategic acumen, and ability to navigate and thrive in diverse industries and challenges.
