In this week’s Power & Impact , I sit down with Dr. Gary King, one of Harvard University’s most distinguished professors and a leading voice in social science research, for a wide-ranging conversation about learning, leadership, and the power of community. Joined by my co-host and friend Dr. Bobbi Wegner, we explore why relationships sit at the heart of meaningful education and how community fuels innovation (Dr. Wegner is a psychologist, entrepreneur, and herself a Harvard educator.) During the conversation, Gary reflects on his work at Harvard, tracing the path from academic insight to its impact in the real world. He also shares what human behavior can teach us about change and why data and AI must be guided by judgment and care. At its core, this is a conversation about curiosity, collaboration, and the responsibility we all share to build environments where people feel connected, challenged—and inspired.
