Contact & enquiries

Tell me the room, the date, and what has to be different afterwards.

That is the whole brief. Most engagements start with a 30-minute call, and you will get a straight answer about whether this is the right session for your audience, including when it is not.

Rahim Hirji is a London-based keynote speaker specialising in AI and human judgement, and the author of SuperSkills (Kogan Page, 2026). He founded the skills platform EtonX, later acquired by Eton College, and led Quizlet’s international growth across more than 60 countries.

Keynotes, board and leadership sessions, and advisory work, drawn from fieldwork across more than 200 organisations in 30 countries and an evidence base of 509 graded studies published in full. Recent rooms include the main stage at the CIPD Festival of Work, Dubai Arbitration Week and the Shape the Future Consortium at Korn Ferry: the speaking record lists them with dates you can check at the organiser.

I come back within 24 hours. If it is easier to talk it through, book a 30-minute call instead.

How far in advance should I book?

Six to twelve weeks is workable for most dates, and short notice is often possible from London. Three to six months is better for in-person keynotes that involve travel, and later slots in a calendar year fill first. Each city page carries the real lead time for that market rather than one number applied everywhere.

What do fees depend on?

Most conference keynotes come in around £10,000. What moves it: the time I commit, travel, how full the diary is that month, and how far the talk is built for your room. Advisory assignments are scoped one at a time, and most are five-figure. A retainer is a different arrangement and is priced differently: monthly, starting in four figures, and I take on no more than a handful at once. I keep a small number of slots each year for schools, charities and universities.

What organisers say

“I brought Rahim in to speak to the Luminary Community, a group of female leaders and high potentials working in HR and people. I wanted something that would make sense of AI for them without the hype and without the fear. Rahim started with the human rather than the technology, and that reframing was the thing. He made AI feel simple and made us feel capable, which is not a combination I have come across before. Our members left with something they could actually use.”

Azmina Kara, Founder, Luminary. Booked a talk for the Luminary Community.

“We brought Rahim in to help our EMEA People Operations leadership team think through AI and human judgement. He surveyed us beforehand, sixteen of eighteen answered, and he built the session from our own responses, so the whole morning was about us. I’d recommend him to any leadership team working out what should stay human.”

Karina Govindji, Director, Head of HR UK, Google. Booked a leadership session.
