July's Meeting Protocol Monthly Podcast: Kieran DiEmidio
This month, Kieran and I explored what's on top of mind for almost everyone: AI. Our discussion ranged from the critical role of in-person events right now as they provide a unique opportunity for focused human attention amidst an oversaturated digital landscape, to how our emotionally intelligent roles as event professionals help us remain largely immune to AI job disruption.
