Welcome to the Presenter Application page.

Thanks for coming to find out more about speaking or being a panelist at the Long-Term Strategy Conference 2025. This year’s theme is “Long-Term Strategy – Pre-Emptive | Game-Changing | Sustainable.”

(If you don’t understand the basics of the event, see these pages: What Is It?, How Does it Work? and Who Should Attend? In summary, this is a virtual conference running for 48 continuous hours from June 25-26, 2025.)

With that in mind, you may be asking yourself: “What can I gain as a speaker?”

Your Opportunity

Our conference mission is:

Feeding hungry creators of game-changing, pre-emptive, long-term strategic plans with insights that make a quick difference.

This year we are focused on delivering 25+ lessons or principles. The overall idea is simple.

Game-changing, pre-emptive, long-term strategic planning which spans 15-30 years isn’t easy to produce. The obstacles are formidable and most forces in the world are pulling us toward a short-term orientation. We are all about moving participants beyond the immediate challenge.

As such, a participant may be an executive, board member, manager, consultant, futurist, strategic foresight professional, change advocate, content creator or just a fan of all things game-changing.

At the same time, one of our conference mantras is that “If it ain’t game-changing, then it ain’t a strategy.”

To fulfill our mission, our speakers will deliver content related to 25+ lessons. (We are open to others, if you have a powerful lesson of your own to share.)

Here is a link to a page with a description of each lesson or distinction. Here is a portion of the page.

As you review the list, you may find a lesson that you feel qualified to handle. But perhaps you are not sure how you want to participate. Here are your choices.

  • be interviewed by one of our experts in a problem-solving session. The pre-recorded video will be shown at the conference on-demand for attendees to watch. (Preferred)
  • prepare a 20-40-minute pre-recorded, solo video.
  • join a live panel. These real-time sessions include Q&A interactions with a live audience. You could be a member of the panel, or the moderator.
  • appear live in an interactive solo session with the audience. Only a few will be invited. Greater preparation is required.

However, we don’t want to mislead you. We don’t pre-pay our speakers.

Instead, we offer you a commission on ticket sales to your followers via the use of a special Gumroad link. In all of our previous 11 virtual conferences on different topics, speakers have received thousands in commissions through this method.

But you still need to determine: “How can my participation as a panelist and/or presenter help me reach my goals?

Your Goals

For just a moment, we’d like you to consider both your 1) personal and 2) commercial goals.

  1. Personal goals include the challenge of presenting your thoughts to a savvy audience. This won’t be an audience of beginners.
  2. Commercial goals are related to your career, business or profession. What specific measurable results do you want to accomplish? Do you want revenue from sales of a program/coaching/consulting? More leads for strategic planning meetings? To meet a network of experts from around the world? Or see a bump in your professional reputation?

Considering and answering these questions for yourself will help you respond to the questions in the application form linked below.
