Litmus Live 2022 Keynote Speakers

Kason Morris (he/him) Head of Learning Experience Design, Salesforce Follow Kason on LinkedIn

Since 2006, Kason Morris (he/him) has been fortunate to help upskill and reskill thousands of career professionals, lead L&D functions at SaaS start-ups and play many executive consulting roles across industries and disciplines for high-powered fortune 100 organizations, including Bank of America, Accenture and Salesforce.

As a chief learning executive, he is focused on enabling the development of real skill learning and career development culture inside companies. He is establishing the workplace learning experience of the future with stability, equity and dynamism into all elements of the L&D function: its strategy, structure, people, processes, tech and systems.

As a career and life transformation coach, he is focused on empowering underserved professionals to apply design thinking to tackling the “inequity” problems of career development and life wayfinding.

Kason’s north star: In a world that is increasingly polarized and unequal, we can use career and life design skills to craft rewarding personal and professional lives dedicated to dismantling systems of oppression while becoming more aware of and aligned with our own skills, expertise, gifts and power in the pursuit of a more just, sustainable, and equitable society.

Outside of work, Kason love spending time with his daughters #girldad, traveling, stargazing, cooking, video games, anime, pop-culture and tinkering with new ideas around career development, personal improvement and whole life design.
