Vance Crowe helps organizations navigate distrust, disagreement, and change. His career runs through the Peace Corps in Kenya, the World Bank, and Monsanto, where as Director of Millennial Engagement he was the public face of the most distrusted company in America during the height of the GMO controversy.

Since then he has recorded 487 episodes of the Vance Crowe Podcast, testing his ideas against ambassadors, macro analysts, farmers, priests, and Nobel-adjacent scientists. That archive is the raw material for his keynotes, his Interest-Based Communication course, and Legacy Interviews, his professional life story interview service.

What he speaks about

Eight themes, each built from the archive: groupthink and polarization, escaping information bubbles, economic uncertainty, rebuilding trust in attacked industries, conversation craft, legacy and memory, succession and knowledge loss, and change through windows.
