What an energizing first day at #NBForum2025! Full of insights, new connections, and plenty of inspiration.
One highlight was Gianpiero Petriglieri, who reminded us that leadership is less about constraints and more about making us feel connected.
Howard Yu reframed future-readiness brilliantly: it’s not about predicting the future, but about building the capability to perform and transform simultaneously — and being easy to partner with.
Angela Ahrendts, truly inspiring, asked: “Who hires people and pays them a salary in order to NOT change anything?!”
The very authentic Milda Mitkutė shared how she doesn’t see herself as a business leader, but as a problem solver — humble enough to admit when she lacks knowledge and enlist help from others.
Closing the day, Simon Sinek struck a chord as always. One takeaway: Writing makes you smarter; just producing output with LLMs does not.
Looking forward to day 2 tomorrow!
