John Sweeney's Biography

John Sweeney is an Innovation Behaviouralist; changing the faces of businesses through content and humour rich keynotes.

The past 15 years has seen John Sweeney changing human behaviour within the biggest businesses in the world. Having been trusted by companies such as Microsoft, PWC and Target, not only can he guarantee tangible shifts in the culture of teams and performance of leaders, but his methods are backed by years of scientific research.

John runs the globally respected training and workshop company ‘Brave New Workshop’ where his team of performers instill the agility and resilience of live improvisation into corporate teams across the country. Improvisation, he feels, is a key vehicle to work on one’s mindset, because it breaks down complex interactions, team dynamics and cultural norms to the very basics of humanness and how we collaborate, communicate and create.

As the owner of America’s oldest comedy theatre, it is no surprise that John incorporates humour, along with a clear speaking style at his keynotes, which consistently receive 10/10 ratings. As a result, he continues to create waves of change across organisations, effectively linking improvisational theatre skills to workplaces and broadening the spectrum of forward-thinking among leaders.

John Sweeney is also author of several books such as ‘The Innovative Mindset’ and is featured across a range of media platforms including Forbes and The Financial Times.
