Keith envisions creativity as a powerful catalyst for change in the world.

One of the founders of SYPartners and the kyu collective, Keith has spent his long career collaborating with CEOs and leadership teams to transform and build great companies and organizations, including Apple, IBM, Starbucks, AARP, Weight Watchers and Nike.

In 2018, Keith suffered a stroke. As he journeyed to heal, he began an exploration of human suffering, vulnerability, and what it really takes to overcome adversity—and find renewal. He is inspired as fascinated by the elements of healing, from the spiritual and sublime to the pragmatic everydayness of resilience.

In 2020, in response to the global pandemic, Keith launched a series of gatherings called This Human Moment. The aim of this effort is to help people sit with darkness, delve into grief, and choose to find renewal and a collective imagination about what could be on the other side.
