When KPMG wanted to shake its own consultants out of legacy thinking, they commissioned Morris to design and lead an Innovation Safari—a full-day, high-impact strategic foresight experience tailored for over 200 senior staff. It helped KPMG’s own people rethink where their true value lies — and how to deliver it before disruption arrives.

When Thoughtworks launched their first Australian CxO event, they didn’t want hype. They wanted honesty. They invited Morris to open a private dinner for their top clients and global leaders — not to dazzle, but to de-risk the future. His keynote stripped away the futurism theatre and drilled into leadership lag, invisible friction, and why foresight isn’t prediction — it’s preparation.

Morris has presented to nearly every TEC group in Australia, all of Vistage New Zealand, and select groups in the UK becoming a trusted voice in the room for CEOs, MDs, Chairs, and facilitators alike. Every facilitator who brings Morris in knows they’re not just booking a talk they’re giving their leaders a foresight injection that will ripple forward into eternity.

Morris didn’t just keynote once for the Institute of Management Consultants. He was invited back across a decade to challenge, provoke, and rewire how Australia’s top management consultants think about their own future. He ran the breakout groups, designed the provocations, and led delegates through a full-funnel interrogation of their relevance.

SEEK brought Morris in to work directly with their senior team. In a world where algorithms mediate first impressions, bias is coded into defaults, and career paths are shaped by invisible filters, SEEK wanted to understand its deeper role not just as a job-matching platform, but as a force in how work is understood and experienced.

MNP is one of Canada’s largest and most respected advisory firms and for over a decade, Morris has been embedded inside their world, not just advising clients but helping MNP consultants themselves reimagine what it means to lead. He has helped their senior consultants evolve their own role in a world increasingly shaped by AI, shifting work models, and future-ready strategy.

The Australian Institute of Company Directors (AICD) brought Morris in twice first for a closed-door leadership foresight workshop in Sydney, and later as a keynote panelist for their Not-for-Profit leadership series. From AI fluency to cross-sector leadership design, Morris gave directors new lenses to evaluate what their organisations and their people need next.

In 2019, Morris was invited to join the Genius 100 Global Visionary Network a group of leaders curated around Einstein’s legacy, designed to shape the long view of humanity, purpose, and progress. The private summit brought together Nobel laureates, NASA leaders, architects of the TED movement, and pioneers from education, space, media, and medicine.

Morris spoke at the CWS Summit where he mapped the trajectory of task-based employment, AI-accelerated platforms, and where trust breaks down when no human’s left to make the call. He showed delegates what comes next when algorithmic systems start shaping careers, not just gigs.

For over six years, Morris served as Resident Futurist to the Australian Israel Chamber of Commerce (WA) not in name only, but in relentless practice. He wasn’t just brought in for keynotes (though he delivered many). He was embedded as a provocateur, strategic compass, innovation interpreter, and future translator for one of Australia’s most influential cross-sector business networks.

iSelect brought Morris in to deliver a keynote to its senior leadership team and investors but it wasn’t about competition or compliance. The session explored how AI, automation, and trust shifts would remake everything from how policies are bought to how clients think about protection, identity, and work-life design.

When Morris was invited to speak at TEDxMelbourne, he gave a talk about humanity and what it takes to stay whole when the world around you keeps rewiring. His talk, Unlearn the Future, became one of the event’s most enduring provocations. In it, Morris didn’t just call for reinvention. He showed what it looks like, live.

Over the past 25+ years, Morris has advised, coached, and provoked internal leadership builders across companies like SEEK, Candlefox, Monash, Holmesglen, Oracle, and more  not with training modules, but with strategic foresight designed to reframe how capability, culture, and human advantage are built. He’s led full-staff provocations that helped culture teams spot the slow shifts before they became emergencies.

Long before “future of work” was a keynote theme, Morris was helping shape it from the ground up. As part of his long-standing teaching and consulting work with Holmesglen TAFE, Morris became a mentor and advisor to student teams participating in the Young Achiever Awards (YAA) — one of Australia’s most respected youth enterprise and leadership programs.
