The COVID-19 pandemic, while devastating, also offered a unique opportunity for introspection and transformation. As the world hit pause, many of us reconsidered how we live our lives and what truly matters. This period of reflection has catalyzed a significant realignment, allowing us to step off the relentless hamster wheel of societal expectations and re-evaluate our priorities. Leaders take note: things are different today. But it doesn't need to be confusing: it just takes a shift in how you look at people.

AI is redefining how we live, work, and interact. And it’s only just getting started. I had a call with one of the founders of RWI Synthetics, a perfect case study of AI’s enormous potential for good.

In every keynote I share this simple hack to help folks uncover what people value. The Three Telltale Questions have been tested on people from around the world – they never fail to shed light on what people truly value.

What leadership is today and what it will be tomorrow has become more confusing than ever. A thousand experts promote a million ideas about how to do it right. How can you find your path? A set of shared values will always be the common thread across all leadership issues.

Leaders are often required to be referees, particularly in these polarized times. How can you facilitate and moderate effectively in such an environment? Regardless of the issue, when we find shared values, we’ve found common ground. And we can begin to resolve disagreements. Together.
