Speaking
Keynotes That Wake People Up
Not another dry tech talk. These sessions shift the way leaders think, act, and build—on stage, in boardrooms, and beyond.
Reclaim the strategy, language, and leadership you were told tech wasn’t yours to own.
Why discomfort is the gateway to growth—and how elite performers lean into it.
Ditch the default. Build frameworks that actually move the needle.
Over 30 years, I’ve spoken at dozens of industry conferences, business groups, and leadership events—plus 50+ webinars and podcasts alongside fellow business leaders. My audiences range from C-suite execs to founders, department heads, and end-users. What I deliver isn’t just information—it’s insight. I focus on the why behind the tech, not just the what or how, translating complex concepts into strategic value that business leaders can act on.
Jody Jankovsky is not your typical tech speaker. He’s a founder, triathlete, general aviation pilot, and 45-year veteran of the technology world who’s spent his life helping business leaders navigate systems they were never taught to understand. As the founder of Blackline and author of Technology Intelligence (TQ), Jody has built a career—and a reputation—on translating complexity into clarity. He doesn’t speak in acronyms. He speaks in outcomes.
In an age where leaders feel outgunned by their own IT teams, Jody offers something rare: a framework to think clearly, act decisively, and lead with confidence in the face of digital overwhelm. His TQ method was born from decades in the trenches—seeing good businesses fail not from bad tech, but from misunderstood power dynamics and poor decision-making.
Jody’s talks are electric but grounded, packed with insight, humor, and real-world tools. He’s been invited to speak to C-suite executives, entrepreneurs, functional leaders, and business groups across industries—earning praise for delivering “the best tech talk we didn’t fall asleep to.” Whether he’s telling stories from the cockpit or the consulting room, Jody leaves his audiences clearer, bolder, and better equipped to lead in the age of complexity.
