“Nicholas Roerich: An Artist and Visionary Mystic,” from the “Mystics and Visionaries” issue of the Rosicrucian Digest. This podcast discusses famed Russian artist, humanitarian, and early AMORC member Nicholas Roerich, whose lifelong pursuit of beauty, spiritual enlightenment, and international peace found expression through his art and educational initiatives, along with one of the first efforts to formally preserve humanity’s various important cultural heritages through the Roerich Pact.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. My guest this week is Garrett Sutton who is an entrepreneur and author. He is the co-author of Sports Heaven, The Birth of ESPN. While ESPN is now one of the most influential media brands in the world, its beginning was anything but certain. It had an idea that many people doubted a business model that had never been proven and a future that very few people could actually see. What makes this story so relevant today isn't sports. It's what it teaches us about entrepreneurship, innovation, conviction, and recognizing opportunities before the rest of the market catches up. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…entrepreneurs, founders, and business leaders looking to recognize opportunities, navigate uncertainty, and build conviction before everyone else sees the vision. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…many of today's biggest success stories seem obvious in hindsight, but they rarely feel that way in the moment. Garrett shares the entrepreneurial lessons behind ESPN's unlikely rise, from spotting an unmet need to making bold decisions when few others believed the idea would work. Through the story of founder Bill Rasmussen, he explores how vision, timing, partnerships, and persistence come together to turn an unconventional idea into an industry-defining business. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Great opportunities often look impossible before they look inevitable. Timing can be just as important as having the right idea. Strong partnerships can accelerate growth beyond what entrepreneurs can accomplish alone. Vision requires the confidence to move forward despite skepticism. WHAT I LOVE MOST…this story isn't really about ESPN. It's about having the courage to believe in an opportunity before anyone else can see it. That's a lesson every entrepreneur can apply.

Between the oil, gas, fertilizers, and other feedstocks not making it past a Strait of Hormuz now effectively closed for 5 months, along with the oil, gas, fertilizers and grain not making it out of both Russia and Ukraine's ports and into global markets, is a global economic crash headed our way?

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. My guest today is Dr. David Bach, founder and CEO of Optios. David is a physician, neuroscientist, serial entrepreneur, and someone who spent years studying how elite performers from military pilots and financial traders to professional athletes make decisions under pressure. His work draws on more than $350 million of DARPA-backed neuroscience research to explore how AI and humans can work together more effectively in real time. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…leaders, technologists, and innovators who want to better understand how AI can enhance, not replace, human performance. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…we've spent years asking how AI can become smarter, but David argues we're asking the wrong question. The next breakthrough won't come from AI knowing more. It will come from AI understanding the people it's working with. Drawing on neuroscience research and work with elite performers, David explains how context, physiology, and cognitive awareness can help AI become a more effective partner in learning, decision-making, and performance. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Context is essential for AI to become truly useful. Human-machine teaming outperforms either one alone. Physiological awareness can dramatically improve learning and decision-making. AI should augment human judgment, not replace it. The future of AI depends on understanding people, not just processing information. WHAT I LOVE MOST…David's Iron Man analogy perfectly captures where AI is headed. The greatest opportunity isn't replacing people with technology. It's creating a seamless partnership where each makes the other better. Running Time: 31:36 Subscribe on iTunes Find Tiffani Online: LinkedIn Facebook X Find David Online: LinkedIn

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. My guest is Eric Ries, someone who has changed the way founders and companies think about innovation, experimentation, and growth through The Lean Startup. After spending decades helping companies scale, Eric has started asking a very different question: why do so many successful companies slowly become the thing they once set out to disrupt? His new book, Incorruptible, explores this. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…founders, executives, and business leaders who want to build organizations that stay true to their mission as they grow. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…most companies don't lose their values overnight, they drift away from them one decision, one incentive, and one compromise at a time. Eric argues that this kind of organizational corruption isn't caused by bad people, but by systems that reward short-term thinking over long-term purpose. He explains why mission, governance, and incentives must work together if companies want to grow without losing what made them successful in the first place. Most importantly, he reminds us that building a great company isn't just about scaling but about creating an organization that can stay true to its purpose over time. KEY TAKEAWAYS: • Organizational drift happens gradually, not all at once. • A mission should guide decisions long after a company begins to scale. • Long-term value is created by serving customers and employees first. • Great companies are intentionally built to resist corruption. WHAT I LOVE MOST…Eric's bridge analogy perfectly captures the challenge leaders face. Corruption isn't inevitable, it happens when organizations are built with the wrong materials. Eric reminds us that leaders have the opportunity to design them differently from the start.

It's a dig for gems on a week where there were more comics than we thought. We're constantly weighing the value of nostalgia in comic book properties, and how much it adds to the experience of comic book stories. We reached no conclusion. The secret is always down to the creative team and how good they told that story. Finally, once more, we need to ask forgiveness from the Italian comic book community.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. I'm thrilled to welcome you back to a series I did with my dear friend, Roger Martin. He's the author of the amazing book, Playing to Win. In our tenth episode, Roger Martin interviews me about my book, Growth IQ. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…leaders looking to accelerate growth, make better strategic choices, and connect strategy with execution. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…many organizations approach growth as if there's a single initiative that will unlock results. Roger and Tiffani challenge that idea, arguing that sustainable growth comes from understanding all of the options available and making deliberate choices about which ones to pursue. They discuss the ten growth pathways Growth IQ was built around, how leaders can combine those pathways for greater impact, and why context and sequencing matter just as much as the choices themselves. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Growth is rarely driven by a single initiative. Strong strategies come from making deliberate choices. Combining growth pathways creates greater impact than pursuing one in isolation. Existing customers are often the biggest growth opportunity. Sales execution and strategy must be developed together. WHAT I LOVE MOST…Roger's reminder that you can't make decisions about categories you don't know exist. The more complete your view of the options available, the better your strategic choices become.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. My guest this week is Caroline Stokes, a leading strategist, executive coach, Thinkers 50 Radar honoree, and author of AfterShock to 2030. Her work focuses on helping leaders navigate reinvention in a world where the old playbooks may no longer apply. While we spend a lot of time talking about AI, disruption and transformation, Caroline argues that the real challenge may be something deeper: how leaders adapt themselves before they try to transform everyone else. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…leaders navigating the changes of our world who want to stay relevant, help their teams adapt, and build confidence in an increasingly uncertain future. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…many leaders are focused on transforming their organizations, but Caroline argues that the real challenge is transforming themselves first. As AI, economic uncertainty, and societal shifts accelerate simultaneously, old leadership playbooks are becoming less effective. Caroline explains why curiosity, continuous learning, and self-reinvention are now essential leadership skills. She also explores how leaders can use AI thoughtfully without losing the human connection that drives trust, collaboration, and meaningful change. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Curiosity is one of the most important skills leaders can develop. AI should enhance human collaboration, not replace it. Transformation starts with personal reinvention. Fear slows adaptation while experimentation accelerates learning. Leaders must help people navigate change, not just announce it. WHAT I LOVE MOST…Caroline's reminder that it's never too late to become a "learn-it-all" instead of a "know-it-all." In a world changing this quickly, curiosity may be the most valuable leadership advantage we have.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. This week we're talking about something almost every leader is wrestling with right now: why transformation is so hard even when they know they need to change. My guests are Phil Lebrun and Jana Werner, co-authors of The Octopus Organization, a book that challenges the traditional way companies are structured and led. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…leaders navigating transformation and growth who want to build organizations that can meet the level of change. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…most organizations approach change as a transformation project with a clear beginning and end. Jana and Phil challenge that idea, arguing that the current environment requires organizations to continuously adapt, learn, and respond rather than rely on top-down change initiatives. In this conversation, they explain why so many transformation efforts fail, how bureaucracy and rigid structures slow organizations down, and why behavior change matters more than new technology or organizational charts. KEY TAKEAWAYS… Transformation is often overused when continuous adaptation is what organizations really need. Behavior change matters more than organizational charts or new technology. Bureaucracy grows when organizations prioritize control over learning. Curiosity and psychological safety fuel innovation and adaptability. Leaders create lasting change by empowering the people closest to the work. WHAT I LOVE MOST… Phil and Jana challenge the idea that transformation is something you complete. The organizations that thrive are the ones that treat learning and adaptation as part of everyday work.

The RV industry is chasing the wrong generation. While manufacturers court 30-somethings with outdoor TVs and influencer campaigns, the buyers who are actually writing checks right now look nothing like the people in the ads.Last week I sat around a campfire in Hocking Hills, Ohio with 88 members of our RVCommunity. I asked how many had bought a new RV in the past year. Eleven hands went up. A 12th would have, but he was out on a six-mile hike. He was turning 70.That tells you everything the sales charts do not.In this episode we dig into who is really driving the RV market right now, what experienced RVers actually want that manufacturers keep missing, the quiet but alarming shift happening in our national parks, and a dramatic rescue on the Appalachian Trail that is a reminder of exactly why preparation matters out there.Read the companion blog post on RVing in the second half of life at RVLifestyle.com - link below.Here is the complete episode, start to finish.THE RV PODCAST - MONDAY NEWS EDITION Episode Air Date: Monday, June 23, 2026 - 6:00 AM Approx.

A 12th would have, but he was out on a six-mile sunset hike - and he was turning 70 that summer.This was happening while the RV industry is posting some of the worst wholesale shipment numbers in over a decade.Which raises a question the people running this industry ought to be asking themselves: who exactly are they building RVs for?Because I can tell you who is actually buying them. And they look nothing like the people in the ads.OPENINGGood morning and welcome to the RV Podcast Monday News Edition. I'm Mike Wendland.Eighteen Emmy Awards. Thirty-plus years covering everything from wars to the White House to consumer affairs. And for the past 15 years, living the RV lifestyle myself with my wife Jennifer in every type of rig you can imagine, coast to coast, all 48 contiguous states.Today's show is a little different. Instead of leading with a breaking story, I want to start with something I witnessed firsthand that I believe tells you more about the real state of the RV market than any press release you will read this year.And if you want to go deeper after you listen, I have been writing about this topic at RVLifestyle.com for the past several weeks. We have been exploring what it means to RV in the second half of life - the freedom, the community, the mindset, and yes, the ways the industry keeps getting it wrong. There is a link in the show notes. I think you will recognize yourself in it.Here is what is happening on the road. And here is what the industry is getting wrong. Let's get into it.LEAD STORY: THE LAST GENERATION THAT KNOWS HOW TO TRAVELThe RV industry is having a rough year. A really rough year. And the numbers tell the story fast, so let me give them to you and move on, because the real story is not the numbers. The real story is who is still out there buying and camping while those numbers grind downward.Wholesale shipments are down more than 13 percent through the first four months of 2026. Retail sales off 14 to 15 percent from last year. The industry's own forecast, just revised downward again this month, now projects this as one of the worst years for new RV sales in over a decade.So who is still buying?Here is what I can tell you from 15 years in this world and from what I saw last week in Hocking Hills. The people who are still writing checks for new RVs, right now, in the worst market in a decade, are the people the industry seems most determined to pretend do not exist.Baby Boomers. Older Gen Xers. People who grew up reading paper maps. Making reservations by phone. Talking to strangers when they got lost. Fixing things with their hands. Navigating real uncertainty with nothing but experience and nerve.According to industry research, Americans 50 and older remain the primary customer segment for RVs. Many are retirees fulfilling long-held travel dreams, and that population is still growing as the tail end of the baby boom ages into retirement. These are people with home equity, disposable income, and something even more valuable: the time and the confidence to actually use what they buy.And yet when you look at the ads. When you watch the Go RVing campaigns. When you walk the floor of any major RV show and look at the marketing materials stacked at the booths. You see toned and trendy 30-year-olds doing yoga on the roof of a Class B. You see influencers with ring lights and perfect hair. What you do not see is the 68-year-old retired engineer who just dropped $95,000 on a new fifth wheel and is headed to Alaska.That is a real blind spot. And I think it is costing the industry real money.Here is what I saw at our Hocking Hills rally. Eighty-eight people, ranging from their 50s into their 80s. Riding bikes and e-bikes and scooters. Hiking up and down some of the most spectacular terrain in the Midwest. One of our members, a retired RV technician, got under a fellow member's trailer and repacked the wheel bearings on the spot. Another couple spent an afternoon giving scooter lessons to anyone who wanted to learn.Nobody was stuck. Nobody was panicking. When something broke, someone fixed it. When someone needed help, someone helped them. These are people who grew up problem-solving before there was an app for it. And they brought every one of those skills out here.I asked how many had bought a new RV in the past year. Eleven hands went up. Twelve if you count the man who was out on a six-mile hike at 70 years old.This is happening while the industry chases 33-year-olds with solar panels and TikTok aesthetics.I am not saying younger buyers are not important. They are the future and we need them. But the marketing case being made inside RV boardrooms right now, that the 50-plus buyer is yesterday's news, is demonstrably wrong. And in a market this soft, you cannot afford to ignore your most reliable customer.I wrote about this at length over at RVLifestyle.com. It is part of an ongoing series we have been running on RVing in the second half of life. The link is in the show notes. If today's lead story speaks to you, that post will too.STORY 2: WHO IS ACTUALLY DRIVING THE MARKETThe demographic picture of who owns and buys RVs is more complicated than the ads suggest, and it is worth understanding.The median age of RV owners has come down in recent years. Younger buyers were absolutely part of the pandemic surge. Millennials and Gen Z now represent roughly 22 percent of RV owners - the same share as Baby Boomers - which tells you something about how quickly the demographics shifted during COVID.But here is what the industry sometimes misses in that data. Younger buyers came in during a period of historically low interest rates, flush pandemic savings, and work-from-home flexibility. Those conditions no longer exist. The buyers who are proving most resilient in this market are the ones who are not dependent on 7 percent financing to make the purchase work.Industry analyst Earl Hunter Jr., founder of The Unity Folks, put it bluntly in a recent trade publication outlook piece. He said the biggest trend in the RV industry right now is, simply, lack of growth. And that the industry has not figured out why emerging demographics and nontraditional consumers have little to no interest in the RV lifestyle.That is a real problem worth solving. But while the industry works on reaching new audiences, there is a generation of experienced, well-capitalized, deeply motivated buyers out on the road right now who built this market and are still carrying it. They deserve a little more respect than a supporting role in someone else's marketing story.STORY 3: WHAT EXPERIENCED RVers ACTUALLY WANT - AND WHAT MANUFACTURERS KEEP MISSINGI want to tell you one more thing from Hocking Hills, because I think it reveals something important about the disconnect between what the industry is building and what experienced RVers actually need.During our campfire conversation, I asked people what features they most use in their current rigs. What do they love. What they would change.Nobody mentioned outdoor TVs. Not one person. This is notable because outdoor entertainment has been one of the most aggressively marketed RV features of the last several years. Manufacturers have been loading up rigs with outdoor TVs, outdoor kitchens, outdoor speakers. The assumption is that RVers want to recreate the suburban living room experience outside.Our members were out hiking six miles. They were packed into a campfire circle talking to each other. They were fixing each other's trailers. The last thing they wanted was a television.What did they talk about wanting? Better towing stability. Improved service networks. Simpler systems that do not require a software update to turn on the hot water. Quality that lasts. And dealers who actually know the products they are selling.These are people with decades of RV miles behind them. They know exactly what they need and exactly what they do not. When you have that kind of experience, you stop being impressed by features and start being impressed by reliability.The industry could learn a lot by listening more carefully to the people who have been doing this the longest....

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. I'm thrilled to welcome you back to a series I did with my dear friend, Roger Martin. He's the author of the amazing book, Playing to Win. In this episode, we're talking about the four key characteristics of strategic thinking. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…anyone who wants to strengthen their strategic thinking and make better decisions in complex, uncertain environments. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…many people think strategy is about making plans, setting goals, or controlling outcomes. Roger argues that strategic thinking starts by accepting the opposite: the most important variables are often the ones you don't control. Customers, competitors, and markets will ultimately do what they want to do. The strategist's job is to influence those outcomes by thoughtfully configuring everything within their control. In this conversation, Roger breaks down the four key characteristics of strategic thinkers. Together, he and Tiffani explore how these skills can be developed and why strategic thinking is less about innate talent and more about deliberate practice. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Strategic thinkers focus on influencing outcomes they cannot directly control. The best decisions come from combining quantitative and qualitative information. Strong strategies emerge when multiple variables are considered simultaneously. Strategic thinking is a learnable skill that improves through practice and training. WHAT I LOVE MOST…Roger's reminder that strategic thinking is not something you're born with. Too often, people assume strategy is reserved for a select few with a natural gift for seeing around corners. Instead, Roger reframes strategic thinking as a set of skills that anyone can develop.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. This week, I'm delighted to speak with Denise Persson. She is the Chief Marketing Officer at Snowflake and co-author of Make It Snow: From Zero to Billions. Over the last 25 years, Denise has helped build and scale some of the most recognizable enterprise technology companies, including Snowflake, Apigee, and Genesis, guiding organizations through hyper-growth, IPOs, acquisitions, and major market shifts. What I really love about Denise's perspective is that she understands growth isn't just about demand generation or pipeline, it's about building the operational alignment, customer trust, and internal culture that allow companies to scale sustainably. So today we're going to dive right into these topics. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…marketing leaders and growth-focused executives helping teams stay aligned while navigating rapid change and ambitious growth goals. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…many companies believe growth comes from moving faster, launching more campaigns, or constantly evolving their message. Denise argues the opposite. Drawing from her experience helping scale Snowflake into one of the most successful technology companies in the world, Denise explains why some of the biggest growth opportunities come from creating clarity and not complexity. Denise and Tiffani discuss what happens when organizations grow faster than their processes, why customer advocacy is more powerful than any marketing campaign, and how leaders can balance innovation with consistency. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Category creation succeeds when customers immediately understand the value. Consistency creates trust for customers, employees, and partners. Hypergrowth often exposes gaps in leadership, hiring, and alignment. Strong data foundations are essential for personalization and AI success. WHAT I LOVE MOST…Denise's perspective that growth isn't always about doing more. It's often about creating more clarity. In a business environment that constantly encourages organizations to move faster, add more, and chase the next opportunity, her reminder that consistency builds trust feels especially important.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. Today's conversation is about reinvention, resilience, and what it really means to lead when the pressure is at its highest. My guest is George Barrios, former co-president of WWE and the architect behind some of the biggest media and sports deals in history and author of the new book, Sometimes Wrong, But Never in Doubt. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…leaders, ambitious professionals, entrepreneurs, and anyone navigating career pivots, high-pressure decisions, or uncertainty while trying to grow with confidence and conviction. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…success isn't built on having all the answers but having the conviction to move forward before certainty arrives. George Barrios is a master at this: from helping transform WWE into a global media powerhouse to navigating a very public firing and reinvention, George explains why resilience, continuous learning, and a willingness to take calculated risks are what truly shape long-term success. Throughout the conversation, George and Tiffani explore the difference between confidence and arrogance, why leaders must stay in constant learning mode, and how reading, writing, and developing a strong point of view can separate great leaders from passive participants. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Conviction comes from preparation and doing the work. Confidence and ego can look similar, but they are not the same. Reading and writing are essential leadership habits. Big opportunities often require moving before certainty exists. Failure is often part of the path toward meaningful success. Leaders grow faster when they actively develop their own point of view. WHAT I LOVE MOST…George's perspective that confidence isn't something you're born with but something you build through curiosity, preparation, and action. His insight that "being passive creates self-doubt" feels especially important right now in a world where so many people are waiting for permission, certainty, or someone else to guide them forward.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. I'm thrilled to welcome you back to a series I did with my dear friend, Roger Martin. He's the author of the amazing book, Playing to Win. In this episode, we're rethinking Warren Buffett's "moat" metaphor for competitive advantage. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…leaders, entrepreneurs, strategists, and innovators who want to build a sustainable competitive advantage instead of competing in a race to the bottom. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…most companies think about competitive advantage as something static, or what Warren Buffett famously coined the "moat" that protects the business from competitors. But Roger argues that this metaphor falls short in this day and age and introduces a more dynamic way to think about strategy: moving through "rooms" ahead of competitors. Roger explores why the best companies stay curious, how customer observation leads to innovation, why benchmarking can actually hurt differentiation, and how asking different questions is often the foundation of breakthrough growth. KEY TAKEAWAYS: Competitive advantage must evolve constantly, it can't stay static. Customer observation often reveals opportunities data alone misses. Benchmarking competitors too closely can limit innovation. Sustainable growth comes from continuously moving to the "next room." WHAT I LOVE MOST…Roger's perspective that competitive advantage is about continually evolving faster than your competitors.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. I'm thrilled to welcome you back to a series I did with my dear friend, Roger Martin. He's the author of the amazing book, Playing to Win. In this episode, we discuss how your current actions impact your strategy. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…leaders, executives, entrepreneurs, and teams trying to improve results without getting stuck chasing the "perfect" strategy. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…whether you claim it or not, you already have a strategy. It's reflected in the choices you're making every day. In this episode, Roger and Tiffani unpack one of the biggest misconceptions in business: the belief that strategy is something you create from scratch during a planning session. Roger explains that every company already has a strategy because every organization is making choices about investments, hiring, marketing, products, customers, and priorities. The real question is whether those choices are producing the results you want. KEY TAKEAWAYS… Your current results are the outcome of the strategic choices you've already made. Strategy fails when leaders expect immediate results from long-term decisions. Chasing the "perfect strategy" often delays meaningful progress. Betterment comes from continuously improving the biggest problems first. Writing down assumptions helps leaders evaluate whether a strategy is truly working over time. WHAT I LOVE MOST…Roger's emphasis on "betterment" over perfection. Instead of trying to engineer one flawless strategy that solves everything forever, he encourages leaders to continuously improve the choices creating the biggest pain points.

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova. I'm thrilled to welcome Cheryl Strauss Einhorn, author, decision strategist, and creator of The Area Method. Her new book, The Human Edge, really challenges a core assumption we're all making right now that more technology automatically leads to better outcomes. What I love about her work is that it's not anti-AI, it's pro-human. She gives us a framework to think more clearly, challenge what we're seeing, and ultimately make decisions with more confidence and intention. Because at the end of the day, the question isn't whether we'll use AI, it is whether we will lead it or it will lead us. THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR…anyone using AI in their work and wondering how to make better decisions without losing their human edge. TODAY'S MAIN MESSAGE…AI can make you faster but it doesn't automatically make you better. Cheryl breaks down why decision-making, not technology, is the true competitive advantage. While AI can accelerate research, generate ideas, and even mirror your voice, it lacks context, judgment, and an understanding of what truly matters to you. Cheryl introduces the concept of "strategic stops" which are intentional moments to reflect, question assumptions, and ensure you're solving the right problem in the first place. KEY TAKEAWAYS… AI is only as good as the context you give it. Without that critical piece, you risk getting answers that sound right but aren't useful. Strategic pauses ("friction") improve decisions by helping you question assumptions and refine your thinking. AI can reinforce bias or limit perspective if you don't actively challenge its outputs. The most important decisions still require human judgment especially when stakes are high and outcomes are uncertain. The future belongs to strong decision-makers, not just companies with the best AI tools. WHAT I LOVE MOST…Cheryl's perspective that AI isn't replacing thinking but is actually demanding better thinking. The idea that we're all "chief deciders" in our own lives is a powerful reminder: no matter how advanced the technology gets, the responsibility to think critically is still ours.
