When her husband brought home a computer in the 1980s Robin Raskin had two options: learn about the technology or get a divorce. She opted to do the former and to add to that by writing a column about it for InfoWorld Magazine. That column got Robin noticed and launched her into a career as one of the most influential women in technology publishing. Rising through the ranks in Ziff-Davis, Robin was an editor at PC Magazine, where the challenge of being a woman and keeping home and work separately was substantial. So it's no small irony that after PC Magazine, Robin launched and ran another title for Ziff-Davis – entitled Family Computing. After Ziff-Davis, Robin headed for the Consumer Electronics Show where she spent 15 years driving efforts to bring emerging technology trends into the event – things like Digital Health and the Smart Home. Lately, Robin is running a new venture focused on how events and technology evolve in a virtual world. In this episode, we talk about leadership, curiosity, and tribalism – and how a cool dog named Sam taught her the truth about belonging. What does leadership actually mean in today's world? Good questions, right? That's what Cathy Brooks, thought. And it's why she created Talk, Unleashed – a new podcast of entirely candid conversations with fascinating people doing remarkable things. This weekly podcast will feature guests from arts and entertainment to business to technology to food to activism to politics (well, we'll see on that last one). Talk Unleashed invites these influencers to consider the things that have led to them to where they are, the lessons they've learned and how all those things can come together to create a better world. #RobinRaskin #VirtualEventsGroup #ConsumerElectronicsShow #PCMagazine #FamilyComputing #ZiffDavis #leadership #TalkUnleashed #UnleashedConversation #UnleashedLeadership #FixYourEndofTheLeash

Good or bad, computers and phones in all forms are having a huge impact on the youth of today. Infants to children are exposed every day to different forms technology and information from Google research, Facebook, YouTube and artificial intelligence platforms just to call out a few. Kids are now able to become creators, programmers, artists, you name it. Basic computer and tech skills are almost a prerequisite now for any child entering school, let alone the expectations for those leaving high school and college. In this discussion, Raskin explains it is important that our youth understand and can adequately use all of these platforms. As the old saying goes, “With great power, comes great responsibility”. The same couldn't be more true when it comes to accessing and implementing the knowledge gained from technology. Currently Raskin is involved in the Consumer Electronics Show (CSE) where she is focused on exploring technology for the entire family. She examines the benefits and challenges with regards to Smarthomes and the IoT. She looks at issues ranging from whether we should be tracking our children electronically to looking at major toy companies joining the field of AI and what that means for your children's experiences. This in-depth discussion with Raskin is a great reminder for all of us, to take another look at the benefits and potential negative aspects to technology in our homes and where we are headed in the future.
