AI is accelerating markets, work, and entire industries faster than most leaders can process. In this Core Conversation, Kian Gohar (former Singularity University Executive Director) joins Jeff Duncan, CEO of Ingenuity Live, to explore how leaders must shift from linear thinking to exponential thinking. Drawing on experience with NASA, XPRIZE, and Fortune 500 companies, Kian shares mental models for navigating uncertainty, reframing risk and opportunity, and building a “future operating system” to lead confidently in an AI-driven decade.
