From inventor to international entrepreneur, and now an acclaimed thought leader in creativity and organizational resilience, Dr. André Walton blends real-world experience, academic insight, and transformative wisdom.
In his twenties, André turned three patented inventions into global market leaders. His C-ducer microphone became a favorite among legendary performers—including Frank Sinatra, who famously refused to go on stage without it. His Medisonics ultrasound system became the measurement gold standard in its field worldwide.
After selling his businesses, André pursued a lifelong dream: designing and building his home in southern Portugal. He also launched a consulting firm to help entrepreneurs expand into U.S. and global markets—sharing the same creative strategies that had fueled his own success. As demand grew, he began guiding business leaders whose ventures had stalled, using the power of creativity to unlock new growth.
Eventually, family and curiosity brought him back to Reno, Nevada, where he earned a Ph.D. in Social Psychology from the University of Nevada, Reno, with a focus on organizational creativity. In 2011, he published Embracing the New Era, offering a bold and practical exploration of innovation in modern work and life.
Today, Dr. Walton is a sought-after keynote speaker, executive coach, and Visiting Professor of Creativity and Entrepreneurship at Newport Business School. His groundbreaking “Banish Burnout” workshops and coaching programs combine two decades of creativity research with cutting-edge neuroscience to help leaders rewire neural pathways, build emotional resilience, and restore wellbeing.
Whether inspiring Fortune 500 teams or guiding governments and universities, Dr. Walton’s keynotes are known for their clarity, depth, and life-changing impact—empowering audiences to think differently, lead creatively, and thrive sustainably.
