Show by Victoria
Artificial intelligence is advancing rapidly, but leadership remains fundamentally human.In this conversation, David Lengyel of Venture Up discusses why communication is ultimately about driving action—and why action always carries risk. People risk being wrong, being criticized, upsetting someone, losing an opportunity, or simply stepping outside what feels comfortable.That makes leadership more than giving instructions. Effective leaders need enough self-awareness to understand their own emotions, assumptions, biases, motivations, goals, and reactions before expecting others to follow them.David and Victoria also explore the growing intersection of AI, healthcare, nursing, professional development, and human decision-making—and why curiosity, communication, critical thinking, and emotional intelligence may become even more valuable as technology becomes more capable.About David LengyelDavid Lengyel is co-founder and Managing Director of Venture Up, a corporate team-building and leadership-development company founded in 1983.
