## Biography
Terence Mauri is one of the world’s leading thinkers and keynote speakers at the intersection of Leadership, AI, and Disruption. He delivers provocative, elevating, and actionable keynotes that help leaders Think Boldly, Act Decisively, Sharpen the Human Edge, and Lead with Strategic Courage. Terence’s thinking is not developed from the sidelines. It is shaped through leadership conversations inside some of the world’s most ambitious and innovative organizations—from Microsoft Frontier Company and Anthropic to SpaceX and JPMorgan. Recently, he was invited to speak at the prestigious Oslo Business Forum, challenging thousands of leaders to confront a simple truth: today’s challenges cannot be solved with yesterday’s thinking. Over the last decade, Terence has been invited into hundreds of leadership conversations at the intersection of strategy, technology, leadership and human behavior. Organizations do not invite him to predict the future. They invite him because when uncertainty rises, conventional thinking stops working. His role is to help leaders see around corners, challenge outdated assumptions and make bold decisions before certainty arrives. Across industries and geographies, Terence hears the same concern from leadership teams: “We’re entering an era of disruption that will rewire the DNA of business, work and thinking itself. If we don’t learn to think differently, change will happen to us.” Terence calls this the Unthinkable Age—an era in which AI acceleration, geopolitical volatility, shifting business models and collapsing assumptions are rewriting the rules of advantage. “We have entered the Unthinkable Age, where the old rules no longer work. What if the way we think is now on the ballot—and thinking-as-usual has become a tax on future readiness?” Thinkers50 has described Terence as “an influential and outspoken thinker on the future of leadership.” He is the founder of the leadership think tank Hack Future Lab, a former board director, an MIT Entrepreneur Mentor-in-Residence and a Visiting Professor. He brings more than 20 years of battle-tested experience helping leaders turn uncertainty into a tailwind for laser-like focus, strategic courage and long-term vitality. His latest book, The Upside of Disruption: The Path to Leading and Thriving in the Unknown, was described by Shazam founder Chris Barton as “Breakthrough thinking to unlock huge potential.” Before founding Hack Future Lab, Terence helped grow $100m+ businesses during periods of rapid change as a director at one of the world’s largest advertising agencies, advising iconic organizations including Apple, Coca-Cola, NVIDIA and Pfizer. That experience reinforced a conviction that now sits at the heart of his work: the greatest danger in disruptive times is not disruption itself—it is responding to a new world with an old mindset. As Terence puts it: “Change used to feel like a breeze. Now it feels like a category-five typhoon. Yet it has never been easier to miss the upside of disruption. We cannot waste one of the biggest reframing moments of our lifetime. The future is not just about technology and trends. It is about mindsets, choices and the courage to act.” His message to leaders is deliberately provocative: even our assumptions have an expiry date. We routinely overestimate the risk of trying something new and underestimate the risk of standing still. When volatility is high, not taking a risk is a risk—and the biggest risk is inaction. Terence’s keynotes have been described as the “equivalent of a double espresso for leaders” by Unilever and “the most wisdom per keynote” by Nike. His thinking has been featured in Big Think, Fortune, Financial Times, Business Insider, Fast Company and The Economist. At the heart of his work is one defining question for leaders navigating the Unthinkable Age: What if the biggest barrier to your future is not what you know—but how you think?
