Here are 3 key takeaways from our discussion:
-
Human Connection Will Always Win: As Alan Lazaros pointed out, in an increasingly tech-driven world, genuine human connection and community are the differentiators. People crave belonging and real interaction—no algorithm can replace that.
-
Personal Development Is Non-Negotiable: Our education system teaches plenty about professional success, but as Alan Lazaros shared, “personal development is not a part of it, whereas professional development is.” Skills like emotional intelligence, communication, and self-awareness are must-haves for 21st-century leadership.
-
Tech Is a Tool, Not a Crutch: Embrace innovation and use platforms like ChatGPT to learn and level up, but never outsource your authenticity. Let tech enhance your message, not replace your voice.
