Kanene Holder Speaking Topics

Data is DNA

The rise and reliance on algorithms and AI is transforming not only our relationship to time and effort due to an exponential increase in productivity but also to our relationship to our human potential. AI will force us to redefine the process of creativity and ownership of intellectual property. How do we ensure people are prepared for these existential shifts and reconfiguration of skills, passions and self esteem to ensure people use AI to augment and not replace what is uniquely human?

Innovation, AI implementation and bias, and the future of work

How can organizations and teams pivot to position themselves for massive growth, momentum and success in a GenAI powered future? From AI to EQ (emotional intelligence), Kanene’s REFRESH®️ framework empowers participants to leverage their strengths to iterate and innovate their winning formula.

Diversity (race, women’s equity, LGBTQAI+, class, conflict resolution)

Education (social emotional learning, media literacy, student engagement, parental involvement, civic engagement, student grit, conflict resolution)
