About Alex Norman

I am an Amazon Bestselling Author, keynote speaker, and executive strategist with a career devoted to removing friction and unlocking growth.Over the past two decades, I’ve helped leading advertising, digital, and media agencies generate more than $1.7B in revenue through new business wins, strategic partnerships, and acquisitions. My career spans building and scaling agencies, leading global innovation teams, and founding Access Built, an agency that reimagines environments to be more inclusive.That work led me to create the Friction Point™ Method, a framework that helps teams uncover hidden obstacles, reduce complexity, and create flow in customer journeys, workplaces, and communities.My book, Boundless: Real Stories and Practical Strategies for Inclusive Living, became an Amazon Bestseller by showing how accessibility is not only a moral imperative but also a driver of innovation, resilience, and competitive advantage.Today, I consult with executive teams, speak at global conferences, and advise organizations across two intersecting fields- Growth & Brand Strategy: Driving revenue, partnerships, and market positioning- Accessibility & Design Futures: Embedding inclusion as a catalyst for innovation and performance.If your organization is rethinking what’s possible in growth strategy or inclusive design, I’d love to connect.Featured In: Fast Company, Newsweek, Crain’s, The Real DealSpeaking: Smart City Expo (Barcelona, Miami), World Retail Congress (Berlin), Cisco Innovation Conference (London), FIFA and Olympics (Rio)
