Talking politics, greed, technology, and action.

In this episode, Carmen Murray and Bronwyn Williams cover various global political and economic trends, including issues such as the lack of trust in institutions, the impact of technology and AI, the role of women in leadership, and advice for conscious leaders. They delve into topics such as growing authoritarian and populist tendencies, rising economic inequality, the spread of misinformation, and the importance of emotional and cultural intelligence.

Bronwyn stresses the need for leaders to understand and connect with disenfranchised groups, educate people to be sceptical of digital information, and inspire hope through purpose-driven leadership. They also touch on the increasing presence of women in leadership roles but highlight the importance of overcoming self-limitations. The episode concludes with advice for leaders to inspire participation and offer better choices to the electorate.
