As seen at
Alexis always wanted to be either a comedian or a business owner. After being booed off stage at a school talent show, he started his first business aged 12, then promptly failed to grow the next six.
Those early failures forced him to figure out the real reason businesses get stuck. Now an award-winning entrepreneur with two software businesses and a consulting practice, he serves over 600 organisations worldwide, including Sony, 3M, Google, Asahi, AstraZeneca, TUI, IMI, and Pepsi.
He's passionate about helping business leaders create genuine freedom: freedom to spend time on what actually matters most, rather than firefighting in the day-to-day.
In 2025, he made the arguably questionable decision to build the world's first 100% AI accountancy practice, hiring eleven AI colleagues, giving them job titles and personalities, and spending six months finding out whether they could actually run a firm. The result became Accrual Intentions. That same year, he was named Neurodiverse Entrepreneur of the Year at the Great British Entrepreneur Awards. Those two things may be related.
Alexis is founder of AirManual, Spidergap and Ukoru, is host of the De-Stress Your Business podcast, and author of Accrual Intentions and the forthcoming The Accountancy Playbooks.
As a speaker, Alexis is entertaining and high-energy. He raises the energy of the room, shares ideas your audience can act on immediately, and makes your job as an event organiser easier.
Alexis writes with the same energy he brings to the stage: practical, entertaining, and packed with ideas you can use immediately.
Part business experiment, part insider comedy, part serious inquiry into what AI means for jobs, leadership, and the future of professional services. Written by Alexis and all eleven AI colleagues.
"I loved it. A huge and important contribution. This is not a warning. It is a summons." β Ronald J. Baker
