The Point of Us: The Future of Humanity in the Age of Machines
Ethics is Everyone's Business
Leadership 4.0: Leading for Humanity
We’re entering a new era where our choices in the executive chambers are not only driving profit, they are — in every way — shaping the course of human history. A new revolution of leadership is required. As CxOs we’ve achieved success by perfecting our craft and leading for growth, profitability and innovation. No one has prepared us to lead with the moral imagination, wisdom, and courage to lead for humanity.
Forces of Change: 4 Ds of Disruption + AI in the Next 10 Years
What is on the event horizon? How do we prepare for the future? The accelerating pace of technological development is presenting new challenges and opportunities. In my talks, I cover the key mega-shifts happening in the AI space, and highlight the vital choices executives face. Crucially, I make sense of how these shifts will impact business, life and society.
What Will You Become? The Future of Work
How do we redeploy our talent? What skills do we need to develop? It’s no secret that the future of work will look dramatically different than it does today as machines of all kinds play an increasing role in our future. The picture that is often portrayed is of dystopian drylands of jobless humans. In this talk, I share a more optimistic and positive view on the future - leading with the question - when machines take over the labor of our jobs, WHAT COULD WE BECOME?
Human Intelligence in the Age of Artificial Intelligence
Part keynote, part workshop, in this talk I explore the domains of humanity that stand outside the forseeable reach of machines, and through experiential and deeply immersive exercises I help audiences lean into these skills, and together, we begin to unravel our concepts of human value and help create a possibility for a new future.
The Age of New Metrics. HINT: It's Critically About Human Flourishing
It's not an exaggeration to say that our new technologies will either lead to the evolution or extinction of our humanity. The implications of what we are building are profound. This talk was born out of a conversation I had with a developer in one of the Big 5 tech companies. He said - "if you ask me to design something that maximizes eyes on screen, I can do that. But if you ask me to design something to enhance human wellbeing, I don't know what that looks like."
