Keynote Speaking
Introducing to the stage ...
Real experience. Real energy.
The kind that people actually remember.
Ewan doesn’t deliver keynotes from theory. He delivers them from experience.
From starting out washing dishes at thirteen to leading at global brands like Disney, Celebrity Cruises, and Marriott, he’s spent over twenty years in the kind of environments where leadership actually gets tested.
That shows up in how he speaks.
Honest stories.
Clear thinking.
No pretending things are easier than they are.
But what sets him apart is how he brings it to life in the room.
High energy.
Fully present.
Deeply human.
He doesn’t talk at audiences. He pulls them in. Gets them thinking. Gets them involved. Keeps them with him from start to finish.
So people don’t just sit and listen. They feel it. They see themselves in it.
And they leave with ideas they’re ready to use straight away.
If you want a keynote
that lifts the room and
stays with people long
after, this is it.
Here's Ewan's
top three keynotes.
But let's talk and speak about what you and your audience need to hear.
From dishpit to boardroom.
What if the biggest opportunities in your career aren’t planned?
Ewan’s story didn’t follow a straight line. From starting work young to leading teams across the world, his path was built on saying yes, stepping in, and learning fast.
Not perfect plans or polished career ladders, but the mindset that helps you move when it counts.
You’ll explore how to build momentum by saying yes to the right opportunities, how to learn without burning out, and how to take your growth seriously without losing perspective.
It’s honest. It’s practical. And it challenges the idea that success has to look one way.
Because the people who move fastest aren’t always the most qualified. They’re the ones willing to step forward.
From zero to 15,000 stars.
What it really takes to build a world-class service culture at scale?
What does it take to turn 15,000 people, from different countries, backgrounds, and starting points, into a team known for exceptional service?
When a global cruise brand set out to become the first cruise line in the world to earn an official luxury star rating, it wasn’t a small shift. It was a complete reset of what exceptional looked like.
Not on one ship. Across all of them.
Ewan shares how that happened. Meeting people where they were. Building a shared standard that cut through language and culture. Creating something consistent, without losing the human side of service.
The result? Recognition at a global level. Not once, but four times.
But this isn’t just a story.
It’s a clear look at what it takes to lead at scale, build belief across a diverse workforce, and turn a big ambition into something real.
Beyond words.
What if your biggest impact as a leader isn’t in the big moments, but in everything in between?
This keynote focuses on what most people miss.
The everyday conversations. The tone you set. The small choices that either build trust or quietly break it.
Ewan brings this to life through real examples and sharp insight from years of leading in high-pressure, people-first environments.
You’ll see how small shifts in how you communicate can change how your team responds, performs, and works together.
No scripts. No corporate language to memorize.
Just a clearer way to show up in the moments that actually matter.
Because culture isn’t built in big speeches. It’s built in how you show up, every day.
