Today we are going to explore something different.

When we think of an advanced society, we usually think of technology. But technological sophistication is not always the same as civilizational sophistication.

Rome's genius was not simply invention. It was how it used roads, engineering, architecture, and art to connect people and communicate ideas. Later, Christian Rome used those same instincts through painting, sculpture, and urban design to communicate faith.

Today's conversation with historian and art historian Elizabeth Lev is about technology, art, and the human person—and what Rome might still teach us about what it really means to be an advanced civilization.

Today we're exploring how leadership is being reshaped by the age of AI.

As technology changes the way we work, make decisions and solve problems, leaders are being asked to do more than simply keep up with new tools. They also need to rethink how they lead, how they respond to uncertainty, and which human capabilities will become even more important as AI becomes part of everyday work.

So, what does it take to lead with clarity, adaptability and confidence in this new era? That's what we'll explore in today's conversation.

In today's episode, we'll explore what it really takes to build a coaching culture, why it matters now more than ever, and how leaders can turn everyday conversations into opportunities for lasting growth and organizational success.
