What can leaders (and the rest of us) do to keep up with ever-increasing and shifting demands driven from societal changes? Multiple, transformational changes have been suddenly thrust upon the world — the evolving conversation around diversity initiatives, AI upskilling, post-pandemic trauma, delivering more with less, unprecedented shifts in politics, and more. Organizations and individuals are finding themselves under pressure to adjust to these changes with varying results. What skills could we all use to not only react to turbulence, but respond in ways that enhance our performance and well-being?

Join Dr. Janet Ahn for an interactive session to hear the latest insights drawn from market research and solutions based in behavioral science to create a culture of leaders who are future-ready.

The program begins promptly at 6:00PM through 7:00PM. Join us afterward on the first floor at the Asia Society Leo Bar to continue the conversation and meet the other attendees. One free drink at Leo Bar is included with each ticket.
