Alex Moffat

Award-Winning Keynote Speaker
Winner – Best Newcomer 2026 | The Speaker Awards (London)

Blending Neuroscience and Illusion to Help Leaders Thrive in Uncertainty

Leader, NeuroLeadership Practitioner, and award-winning magician, Alex Moffat is an award-winning keynote speaker, NeuroLeadership Institute Facilitator, Certified Brain-Based Coach, and experienced corporate leader.

Drawing on more than two decades in global organisations across the UK and Australia, including around a decade in senior leadership, Alex has led teams through transformation, growth, and complex organisational change.

Alongside his corporate career, he has spent more than 30 years as a professional magician, earning multiple international accolades, including recognition at the British National Close-Up Magic Championships and, most recently, winning Best Newcomer 2026 at The Speaker Awards in London, competing with speakers globally, becomning the first Australian winner of a judged category.

Alex’s fascination with the mind began early. Legend has it that his Australian visa was secured shortly after he sent a global bank a “hire me” video featuring a magic illusion to demonstrate why he should be chosen. That experience reinforced his belief in the power of magic and expectations to communicate, influence decisions and create opportunity.

Today, Alex combines neuroscience, leadership, and cognitive illusions to create highly interactive keynote experiences that audiences don’t simply watch - they experience.

His sessions reveal how the brain predicts, adapts, and rewires itself, equipping leaders and teams with practical strategies to embrace change, strengthen human connection, build resilience, and unlock high performance.

Audiences leave inspired, challenged, and equipped with ideas they can apply long after the event ends.
