Regan, Lori Mazan (President and Co-Founder of Sounding Board), and Claude Silver (Chief Heart Officer at VaynerX) dive into the provocation of “what if we embrace tenderness and love (in its most expansive form) within the workplace,” and the potential they could unlock by being open to the future’s possibilities. They explore the ways that Claude is intentionally and habitually embedding empathy into VaynerX’s culture, and how its harmony with leader development and future-readiness could create untapped strategic advantages and bottom-line benefits.
Key Takeaways
- Why AI has the potential to bridge the gap between human-centered values and commerce.
- How perfectionism is subjective and at odds with future-readiness-which thrives on experimenting, embracing challenges and growing through failure.
- Why VaynerX’s cutting-edge approach to building behavioral and functional competencies unlocks their talent’s potential.
- The importance of practicing and acting on empathy so that it becomes a habit and a problem-solving tool.
- How psychological safety releases oxytocin and builds trust among high-performing teams.
