If you want someone who teaches “how to think like an inventor,” Julie brings first-hand experience. She’s not theorizing from a textbook — she’s innovating in the real world and showing others how to do the same.

What Sets Julie Austin Apart as a Keynote Speaker
Teaching “How to Think Like an Inventor”
While many speakers talk about “thinking outside the box,” Julie teaches you how to design the box from scratch. She unpacks the inventor’s mindset — curiosity, risk-taking, resilience, and observation — and shows how anyone can develop it.
Here’s the deal: Innovation isn’t reserved for a chosen few. Julie’s keynotes empower every team member — from the front desk to the C-suite — to become creative problem-solvers.
Real Innovation, Not Buzzwords
Let’s face it — a lot of “innovation” talks are all flash and no substance. Julie brings concrete tools and field-tested methods. Her approach is refreshingly free of jargon and grounded in actual invention success stories.
Your audience won’t just leave feeling inspired — they’ll walk away with frameworks for immediate action.
The Power of “Brainstreaming” to Unlock Breakthrough Ideas
One of Julie’s signature methods is Brainstreaming™, an alternative to traditional brainstorming. Where brainstorming often leads to predictable results, Brainstreaming unlocks unexpected connections and disruptive thinking.
Key benefits of Brainstreaming:
- Encourages non-linear, creative thinking
- Helps uncover unique solutions
- Works in small and large teams
- Ideal for cross-functional collaboration
This innovative tool alone makes Julie’s sessions worth the ticket.
