CEO Climb Event: Leading with Trust & Care in the Age of AI

Friday, April 24, 2026 8:00 a.m. - 9:30 a.m. PDT

Leading with Trust & Care in the Age of AI

As artificial intelligence transforms how we work, one truth remains: people still power performance. When change moves fast, fear rises—and trust can fracture. 

In this energizing session, Kathleen Quinn Votaw will show leaders how to embrace innovation without losing the human connection that drives results. Using her Designed to Care™ framework, she’ll share practical strategies to build trust, strengthen retention, and create a workplace where people feel valued and motivated—even in times of rapid technological change. 

Register today to ignite employee engagement and accelerate growth by turning care into a true competitive advantage.
