Researchers, industry practitioners, educators and thought leaders comprise a list of presenters scheduled Sept. 26 for the inaugural North Dakota AI Conference hosted at Valley City State University (VCSU) at the Larry J. Robinson Center. Attendees will have the opportunity to hear about the evolving relationship between humans and AI in the context of work, society, personal development and what it will mean for all North Dakotans.

I enjoy hiking the hills on our ranch, Eagle Springs. My favorite path is next to a vibrant Quaking Aspen grove. Every season, I'm amazed at their beauty. Plus, these treks are a great source of leadership development insight and inspiration. In the fresh outdoors, I’m often surprised by the leadership strategies that nature teaches me... if I tune in. As my friend Jill Konrath says, "Walking is working."

Our first stop on our recent trip around the world (24 time zones in 23 days), was with our daughter, Danae, who's co-director of STEMM, a medical/educational mission in the foothills of Kilimanjaro.   While there, I trained local educational leaders on principles from my eBook,  5 Success Mindsets to Create Breakthrough Results. Gordon was grateful to see that I only packed an eBook and did NOT bring an extra bag to tow leadership development books!
