Talk topics

Academic Integrity and AI: Building Trust in Learning

Conversations about academic integrity and AI often start and end with cheating. This session starts somewhere else: with the trust that makes learning possible. Faculty and staff learn to tell misconduct apart from cognitive offloading and over-reliance, to talk about each without defaulting to suspicion, and to leave with one practical move that builds trust in their own courses and offices.

For faculty, staff, advisors, tutors, and coaches. Keynote with facilitated discussion. 60 to 90 minutes.

What Is Worth Learning Now? Leading with Purpose in the Age of AI

When AI can produce an essay, a lesson plan, or a strategy memo in seconds, a harder question follows: what is worth learning now, and why? This session invites faculty, staff, and academic leaders to name the purposes that make their teaching and learning worth protecting, and to carry those purposes into decisions about curriculum and AI.

For faculty, staff, and academic leaders. 60 to 90 minutes.

Leading the Way: Rejuvenating Your Strategic Presence and Humaning Capacity

Higher education leaders are asked to steady others while carrying more themselves. Drawing on the Humaning Framework™, which maps ten irreducible human capacities, this session guides leaders through a Purpose Audit and a Capacity Self-Assessment, turns to their institution, and closes with one commitment they will act on.

For deans, chairs, directors, and senior leaders. 60 to 90 minutes.

Leading in Uncertainty: Wisdom and Discernment When the Answers Aren’t Clear

Leaders rarely get complete information before a decision is due. This session builds the practice of wisdom and discernment: holding competing priorities, deciding well with incomplete information, and drawing on analytical, emotional, and intuitive ways of knowing. It moves from personal resilience to team and organizational resilience, with practical moves participants can use the same week.

For leaders and managers in organizations and higher education. 60 to 90 minutes.
