Strategic Keynotes for Fast-Moving Leaders

Ernesto doesn’t talk about change—he detonates outdated thinking. His keynotes arm audiences with the tools, speed, and mindset to outmaneuver slow competitors and turn disruption into domination.

Commanding Intelligence: How Elite Leaders Train AI to Think Like Them

45 or 90 minutes | Strategic + Tactical | High-IQ, High-Impact

Everyone’s using AI. Almost no one knows how to train it to think like them.

In this electrifying keynote, AI Strategist & Cognitive Architect Ernesto Verdugo reveals how high-level thinkers speak to AI—not like users, but like leaders training a billion-dollar assistant.

Your audience will walk away with next-gen frameworks, elite prompt structures, and mental models to extract 10x value from ChatGPT and other AI platforms—not just better answers, but better thinking.

This is not about “how to use AI.” This is about how to install your thinking into it so it becomes a strategic extension of your mind.

Perfect for forward-thinking executives, entrepreneurs, and teams who want to dominate—not get replaced—in the AI era.

Thinking at Speed: How to Outmove, Outthink, and Outlead the Market

45 or 90 Minutes | Sharp. Fast. No Fluff.

Most leaders react to change. Smart ones engineer it.

In this high-impact keynote, Ernesto Verdugo delivers the tools, mental models, and decision frameworks used by the world’s fastest-moving leaders to out-think, out-position, and out-execute the market.

This isn’t about creativity. It’s about winning with intelligence.

You’ll learn how to:

  • Spot opportunity before it’s obvious
  • Make smarter decisions under pressure
  • Move faster than competitors still stuck in strategy paralysis.

If your team is still “innovating” through brainstorming and buzzwords, you’re already losing.

This is the playbook for leaders who build edge-thinking cultures and turn strategy into speed.

Secret Tools for Ruthless Competitive Advantage

45 or 90 minutes | Tactical + Ruthless | High-Utility, Zero Fluff | Keynote

In this raw, high-speed keynote, digital strategist and tool tactician Ernesto Verdugo opens his personal digital arsenal—no hype, no fluff, no affiliate BS. Just the exact tools, automations, and AI shortcuts that give high-performers an edge 6 months before the public catches on.

These are the same systems Ernesto’s used to build global brands and automate credibility—while others were still stuck fiddling with Canva.

This isn’t a “top 10 tools” talk.

This is a digital unfair advantage briefing for people who play to win.

You’ll walk away with:

✅ Hidden apps that collapse time and explode output

✅ Tools that give you omnipresence without burning out

✅ Shortcuts to brand dominance without a team

✅ AI-driven leverage that makes competitors look prehistoric

Perfect for entrepreneurs, marketers, and execs who want to move fast, stay invisible, and build what others can’t copy.

Strategic Foresight: How High-Level Thinkers Spot Trends Before the Market Does.

45 or 90 minutes | Strategic + Predictive | High-IQ, High-Relevance | Keynote

Most people spot trends when it’s too late. Strategic foresight is about knowing what’s coming—and positioning before the market wakes up.

In this powerhouse keynote, global strategist Ernesto Verdugo reveals how elite thinkers identify early signals, decode market shifts, and profit from patterns before they go mainstream. This isn’t guessing—it’s precision prediction with bottom-line impact.

Your audience will learn Ernesto’s foresight system built across 70 countries, 350 cities, and 57+ industries—designed to help leaders move early, think sharper, and act faster.

Forget chasing trends. Be the one others chase.

Perfect for visionary executives, innovators, and leadership teams who want to control positioning, not just react to it.

Cognitive Command: Messaging That Moves People, Money, and Markets

45 or 90 Minutes | Strategic. Persuasive. Profitable

Most professionals talk. Leaders command.
And the right words? They don’t just inform—they create action, trust, and money

In this fast-moving keynote, Ernesto Verdugo breaks down the high-level messaging strategies used by elite thinkers to move people emotionally, shift perception instantly, and drive action where it matters—revenue, influence, and authority.

You’ll learn:

  • The Cognitive Command Framework for crafting messages that convert
  • Why most communication training is useless in high-stakes business
  • How to shift from “sounding smart” to getting results
  • The psychology behind words that sell, scale, and stick

This isn’t about being clear.
It’s about being undeniable.

Perfect for executives, sales teams, brand leaders, and founders who need their words to move markets—not just fill air.

Adapt or Die: Leadership for a World That Won’t Wait

45 or 90 Minutes | Fast. Brutal. Strategic.

The world’s moving fast—and most leaders are still in meetings.

In this no-BS keynote, Ernesto Verdugo shows how smart companies out-think, out-decide, and out-move their bloated competitors by making speed a leadership principle, not a panic response.

You’ll learn:

  • Why slow = dead in today’s market
  • How to build a culture of execution, not excuses

What fast-thinking organizations do that bureaucracies never will

Forget “agile.” This is about velocity.
Decide faster. Lead louder. Leave slow thinkers in the dust.

Looking for an effective virtual speaker for your online event?

Whenever selecting a speaker for an online event,
you must keep in mind... most 'top' ONSTAGE speakers are NOT as good on virtual environments as they might be on a live event!

Presenting on a LIVE event and presenting on VIRTUAL events require different skills...

Virtual events are a one-to-one medium just like radio and TV. They are not atmosphere driven events like conferences, gala evenings or boardroom meetings.

Ernesto Verdugo Virtual keynote Speaker

Ernesto has 30 years ONSTAGE experience and 16 years experience on digital broadcasting. He's been the host of 2 successful WebTV shows, has a popular podcast and has performed in over 1300 virtual events.

That's why Ernesto can deliver a message and foster interaction with a virtual audience while broadcasting from a studio or remote location WITHOUT a real audience.

His unique distant teaching methodology will instantly grab the attention of any virtual audience and will create a memorable learning experience for online participants of all ages.
