FAQs

Can Keynotes be customised?

Laurent’s talks can be tailored to specific contexts and environments, to a certain extent. Backbones are the result of multiple performances and will be the basis of each talk. However, some specifics can be adapted or added, following prior agreements. Totally new and unique topics can also be discussed.

What is included in Keynotes?

Talks can be given in 15-, 30- or 45-minute format. Following prior agreements, copies of the book can be distributed to (some) participants. Slides are shared after the event. A preparation call is always foreseen. Rehearsal and tech checks can be organised prior to the event.

What is the technical setup required?

Laurent uses his own laptop (MacBook Air), remote control and a HDMI cable. Google Slides is the preferred format, it can also be PDF. Screen and microphones must be managed by the host organisation. Laurent prefers to place his laptop on a lectern and control it himself.

Can I book Laurent for a private talk?

Absolutely. Most talks are booked by private companies and organisations and intended to an internal audience. Laurent always adapt some parts to the organisation’s specifics. A (moderated) Q&A session can follow the talk. Technical setup is organised by the organisation. Copies of Laurent’s book are offered to audiences below 25 participants.

What about languages and record?

Laurent’s talks are given either in English or in French. Slides are in English by default, except if agreed otherwise during the preparation call. Keynotes can be recorded with prior notice, and we’d like to receive the file with all rights attached. Same for pictures.
