Erik A. Dewey PhD

Speaking & Consulting

The bridge between
motivation
and outcomes.

A PhD in Educational Psychology who has spent a career studying how games make people learn, engage, and think better — and who can stand in front of your group and make it land. In-person or virtual.

I have extensive experience as a public speaker, both in-person and virtually. Whether it’s a keynote, a workshop, or a working session with your team, the goal is the same — take what the research says about games, motivation, and learning, and turn it into something your people can actually use on Monday morning.
