Launch of RossDawson.com

By

RossDawson.com is now launched! The website focuses on my individual work as a keynote speaker and strategy leader, which complements my organizational roles at Future Exploration Network and Advanced Human Technologies.

I have quite a few websites for the organizations that I’m in involved with, plus the occasional book and blog. Since my work focus is largely on my organizations, I didn’t even look at getting a domain for my name for a good while. When I first looked at the domain rossdawson.com, the domain was registered though unused, by a Ross Dawson living in Scotland. I diarized to check when the domain was up for expiry, and was fortunate enough to be able to pick it up. Several years have passed since then, with my attention on other things, including establishing Future Exploration Network.

At this point I am keen to make space to write my next book, so over the next little while I will put a little less energy into growing the organizations, though we certainly have the resources to deliver significant projects as clients request them. I am quite happy for the next little phase to spend more time doing speaking engagements and working as a solo strategy leader with my clients. As such it makes sense to launch the RossDawson.com website now.

The website includes keynote speaking videos, speaking topics, client testimonials, event planner information, and new global speaking schedule and recent media features, which I’ll incorporate into this blog soon. It also sports a new brochure: Ross Dawson: Keynote Speaker | Strategy Leader (1MB), which gives an overview of my work as a speaker and solo consultant.

I’ve simultaneously set up a very similar rossdawson.net site for speaking bureaux to use in promoting me. Although it’s now very easy to search for and find anyone prominent these days, speaking bureaux still like to be sure that there are no direct contact details on anything they show clients about speakers they are proposing. As such the “bureau-friendly” rossdawson.net is the same as the rossdawson.com site, except with no contact details or external references to my blog or other sites.

Let me know any feedback or thoughts on the sites, as we’ll refine them over time.

    Thanks Scott! I’d thought I’d let people subscribe to the blog when they went there, but it does make sense to offer that on the .com site too… Not sure where the privacy policy fits, as the only info we’ll get from here is if people send us email enquiries.. – is that it?

    Personally I would like to know what would happen to my email address if do contact you (i.e. will I be subscribed to any mailing lists).
    A general privacy policy for the site could cover such things as use of cookies and analytics (i.e. recording visitor IP addresses).

    Hello Ross!
    RossDawson.com … Super!
    The first thing I was looking for was the rss feed, so I link back to what Scott said.
    The videos are great! Are you planning to add a feed also to the videos? and, will you publish some new videos here on your blog?
