Whomst this “Dr. Jason Fox
Arch-Wizard of Ambiguity (most fantastic)”?
Ahoy and well met
You’ve found my daylight form: the enigmatically groomed and mostly authentic persona of Dr. Jason Fox—a resplendent wizard-philosopher who writes bestselling books, charms audiences, and advises those who quest for new and enduring relevance.
Behind this persona lies the (mostly) intellectually honest trickster known as the foxwizard. It is in this aspect I write the much-loved museletter, providing elucidation for those who seek to be more effective imposters within the mythical ‘future of leadership’.
Here is my ‘official’ bio—my glittered trojan horse, written in third person to sound extra impressive. Use this to help me slip past the gatekeepers of your organisation—so that we can work our magic together.
The Official Bio of Dr. Jason Fox ✨
Dr Jason Fox is a wizard-philosopher masquerading as a motivational speaker and leadership futurist. He works with clever teams seeking meaningful progress—beyond the default.
His many happy clients include the senior leadership teams of Fortune 500 companies around the world including Microsoft, HP, Novartis, Red Bull, Cisco, Johnson & Johnson, Toyota, Honda, Sony, Oracle, Honeywell and Salesforce, to other multinationals such as Beam Suntory, Vodafone, Tableau, Gartner, Xero, HP, Bupa, Red Cross, Bulgari, Pandora, Arup, Aon, PWC, Ricoh, Honeywell, KPMG, The World Tourism Forum and The International Institute of Research (not to mention: university chancelleries, government agencies, software developers, decentralised autonomous organisations, and so on). Much of his work is as a leadership advisor to teams questing amidst complexity.
Jason has lectured at three universities (systems and behaviour), and is the bestselling author of The Game Changer and How to Lead a Quest. Despite his intentional ineptitude at any and all social media and marketing—his monthly ‘museletter’ is read by more than 11,000 leaders around the world.
In addition to serving as a leadership adviser, Dr Fox is also a globally in-demand keynote speaker who works particularly well with senior leaders and sceptical audiences who have ‘seen it all before’. In 2016 he was awarded Keynote Speaker of the Year by Professional Speakers Australia (the highest honour of this craft).
Dr Fox lives with an illustrator-veterinarian, a chihuahua named Snorri and a cat called π in an old chocolate factory in Melbourne, Australia. When not liberating the world from the delusion of progress, Jason enjoys partaking in extreme sports such as reading, sun-avoidance and coffee snobbery.

Japes aside, I am mostly a metamodernish wizard-philosopher and infinite ‘game~b’ hermetic gentleman-pirate trickster-bard.
I quest to co-create a world more curious and kind. ◕‿◕
And a future less grim. I work with founders, leaders, developers and daos as an advisor in the domains of quest leadership, narrative strategy and motivation design.
Oh look, here’s an old and overly-sincere video of me. So broody! Faux deep.
And here’s a slightly more recent one (still before The Plague times). Here I go about the process of crafting a new keynote presentation for a client.
Here’s a mini-interview that followed a keynote I gave at the 925 Festival in Helsinki in 2014. It fills me with cringe like you wouldn’t believe (I’m a much more seasoned wizard now; oh the things I now know)—but people keep saying it’s nice. So here it is.
Oh look: Dr. Fox in some magazines.
