On Zoom or in person, inspire your colleagues with an energizing talk about the trends, technologies, and business models influencing the future and how your org can play a role in shaping what’s et.

As an ecosystem developer, I've learned that why we gather and how we do it is key for breaking down silos, sparking innovation, disseminating information, and cross pollinating ideas. I also know that to create a better future, we have to collaborate more. That mainly happens when we get to know each other, build trust, and don't see each other as "other." In this episode, I share my philosophy for gathering diverse parts of the ecosystem and why it's so important to have an open mind and constantly seek to learn from others.
