  • MIT Entrepreneur Mentor in Residence and IE Business School professor
Terence Mauri is one of the world’s leading thinkers and keynote speakers on future-ready leadership, disruption, and change, helping organizations stay relevant and resilient as uncertainty becomes the new normal. He is the founder of Hack Future Lab and the Future Insights think tank, and a three-time bestselling author whose work focuses on how leaders can sharpen their future readiness in times of rapid disruption. Terence has been named by Thinkers50 as an influential and outspoken voice on the future of leadership and serves as Entrepreneur Mentor in Residence at MIT as well as a visiting professor at IE Business School. Global organizations including Google, HSBC, Pfizer, and Assurant partner with Terence as a trusted advisor on leadership in the Intelligence Age. His ideas have been shared on some of the world’s most respected stages, including the Oslo Business Forum in 2025 alongside Simon Sinek and Scott Galloway. His latest book, The Upside of Disruption, was praised by Chris Barton, Shazam founder, for "breakthrough thinking to unlock huge potential." Alongside his academic and advisory work, Terence brings firsthand experience from building and scaling $100m+ businesses as a former director at one of the world’s largest advertising agencies, advising companies such as Apple, Microsoft, and Google through periods of rapid change. His work blends insight on megatrends, leadership psychology, and real-world case studies to help organizations turn disruption into a tailwind for focus, courage, and value creation. He enables leaders and teams to move faster, think bigger, and adapt with confidence. Terence’s audiences gain practical ways to think, decide, and lead when disruption is high, from building strategic courage to spotting the opportunities hidden inside uncertainty. His leadership keynotes have been described by Unilever as the equivalent of a double espresso for leaders and by Nike as the most wisdom per keynote, reflecting the pace, clarity, and relevance he brings to every room. Bring Terence Mauri to your organization to sharpen future-ready leadership when uncertainty is high.
