LECTURES

A professional speaker for over twenty-five years, Davis has lectured at some 200 universities in the USA and abroad, the National Geographic Society, TED, Bohemian Grove, the Young Presidents Organization, and more than 100 corporate clients.

In 2020, when international travel ceased almost overnight, Davis transferred his skills and stories to online speeches and interviews for news outlets and virtual events being broadcast around the globe.
