Every Duncan Stevens keynote in Orlando, USA begins with a structured briefing designed to ensure the content reflects your audience’s specific context and needs.

From that foundation, Duncan conducts his own pre-event research into the organisation’s current strategic priorities and relevant sector context, before building the keynote framework and examples that will make the session feel genuinely built for this audience rather than adapted from a generic template. For Orlando’s hospitality audiences, the briefing covers seasonal performance pressures and the cross-department leadership dynamics specific to the resort environment.

Orlando’s hospitality and entertainment leaders are navigating a real demand shift in 2026. Comcast confirmed in its July 2026 earnings call that Orlando-wide theme park attendance began softening in June, even as Epic Universe continues to deliver strong guest response and higher per-capita spend. That’s not a marketing problem. It’s a leadership problem: teams need to protect service standards and morale while the top-line environment gets tighter. Duncan’s change management keynotes are built for exactly this kind of pressure, giving resort and park leadership teams a concrete framework for holding performance steady through a demand slowdown rather than just riding it out.

Yes. Duncan has spoken at major association events held at the Orange County Convention Center, including the GCSAA Conference and Trade Show, the AAO Annual Meeting and the Gartner Supply Chain Symposium/Xpo. The OCCC is the second-largest convention centre in the US, and the audiences there span golf course management, ophthalmology and supply chain, which means Duncan’s behavioural psychology content has to translate cleanly across very different technical fields. That range is exactly what OCCC event planners are booking him for.
