“Sometimes things don't happen like you want it to be but that's not always the bad thing about it, because we have to learn and unlearn and try again. That's what I say: this is a habit that you create to improve yourself, to improve your organization, the society, the people that you work with. So it all comes to—habit to improve.”

“Now more than ever with the accelerating speed of innovation—the world that is—changing. We had a pandemic, we have a war. Things are going so fast, like waves coming over this garden, we have to adapt all the time. And I think learning as human beings to understand all the impact of this is the only way that we can survive and thrive as people and as an organization.”

“When I'm doing presentations or keynotes for L&D people, HR people, or leaders, I always ask them: when was the last time you went on TikTok? Fortnite? Roblox? And I know the answer about the last time. They never went on it. But that's the future. Those are learning ecosystems.”
