Joshua M. Evans

Joshua M. Evans is a professional keynote speaker and future-of-work expert who helps organizations reconnect people with purpose, strengthen performance, and unlock human potential. His work addresses challenges shaped by artificial intelligence, automation, changing workplace expectations, uncertainty, and burnout. Evans’ central message is that people do better work when they care, and that a stronger sense of purpose can support adaptation, productivity, creativity, and meaningful contribution.

His keynote presentations explore change and adaptation, employee engagement, purpose-driven leadership, the future of employee experience, and human capacity. Programs such as “Purpose or Perish” and “Unlocking Human Capacity” encourage individuals and teams to recognize the value of their efforts and expand their potential. Evans also offers workshops and retreats for organizations seeking to develop these ideas beyond a keynote event.

He is the author of Purpose or Perish: The Quest for Meaning in the Future of Work, a book about rediscovering and reconnecting with purpose amid evolving technology and workplace dynamics. Organizations can contact Evans to discuss speaking engagements and event needs.
