About Me

👋 Hi, I’m Owen.

I work at the intersection of where culture, technology, and strategy collide.

I’ve spent over a decade working across corporate, education, and tech sectors, helping leaders adapt to a fast-moving world. 

My Work Focuses On

  • AI & digital transformation
  • Workplace culture & remote strategy
  • Learning ecosystems & change management
  • Intersectionality of personal and professional identities

What I'm Doing Now

At Trimble Inc., I develop education partnerships and workforce strategy. I’ve built go-to-market plans, scaled learning initiatives, and helped drive the company’s digital transformation from the inside out.

I also contribute insights, through employer sponsored speaking, writing, and engagements, on how people and organizations adapt to major shifts, especially in the age of AI and hybrid work.

My Professional Background

  • Ed.D. in Organizational Learning
    (I researched how remote work really works.)
  • Career path through edtech, higher ed, and global strategy
  • Trusted advisor to senior leaders navigating change
  • Known for translating complexity into action

Media Bio

Owen Chamberlain is a strategist, writer and speaker with 15+ years of experience in organizational transformation, remote work culture, and the future of leadership. He currently works at a Fortune 500 company, shaping strategy at the intersection of people, systems, and power.

A British-born ‘pracademic’, he is currently based in Colorado. Owen has a doctorate in education and critical theory, and his research draws heavily from Foucault, systems thinking, and lived experience. He is particularly interested in the evolution of professional identity, how invisible power shapes our working lives, and the role of technology in shaping the future of work.

Owen has spoken at major conferences in both the US and UK on topics ranging from the future of remote work to the politics of knowledge in corporate systems. He is a guest lecturer, podcast contributor, and behind-the-scenes advisor to executives seeking to redesign their organizations with humanity in mind. His writing has been featured in business journals and online platforms.

Before his current role, Owen held senior positions in both corporate and educational sectors, often serving as the bridge between legacy institutions and emerging models of work. His previous roles include strategic advisor, director of execution, and consultant on distributed teams and transformation initiatives.

He is best known for blending sharp analysis with irreverent humor, frequently asking the questions others avoid, whilst delivering this with a Northern British accent. He’s also after the perfect curry recipe.

When not interrogating the cultural machinery of work, he spends weekends either hiking, fixing things, or playing music. He misses British pubs, but not British weather.
 

Outside of Work

I live in Colorado with my family. I hike, ski, debate philosophy over coffee, and play music with local band TenBuckSixer.

You can find out more about me through my professional profile on LinkedIn.

All professional activities and engagements are conducted through my current employment and in compliance with U.S. visa regulations.
