Empowering Leaders To Build A Better Tomorrow with Lara Stein
How do we empower leaders to build a better tomorrow?
My guest Lara Stein understands this challenge as well as anyone as the Chairman and Founder of Boma Global. Lara was the founder of the TEDx program at TED, and grew it into a global movement with more than 15,000 events and more than 1 billion video views. Through her work with TEDx, Lara learned the innovation power of local communities, and how to harness this power. She also learned how to build a massive volunteer network and how to sustain it long term. After leaving TED, she joined Singularity University, to build a decentralized network of country partners and take them global. Now, she has joined forces with dozens of country, corporate and community partners with an intimate understanding and appreciation of the power of large-scale, decentralized networks.
Join us as we explore and learn from Lara’s incredible insight drawn from extensive experience of empowering leaders and engaging communities to build the most incredible momentum for a better tomorrow.
