Episode 051 - A Discussion with Dr. Irene Kilubi

Steven and Kate had the pleasure of hosting Dr. Irene Kilubi, on Digital Dump. Irene talked about her background and education as well as her career journey. She wears many hats i.e. as a speaker, a moderator, a writer, and a teacher… but feels that the word Entrepreneur best describes what she does!

Irene is a builder of communities, of bridges between generations. She helps to create a runway for learning and cooperation. Irene feels that learning from each other starts with a dialog, but that is not enough! It is the experience of actually working together and interacting that enhances true cooperation and can change "traditional" mindsets! Pairing the wisdom and experience of seniors with the drive and fresh ideas of juniors is an important factor for success in our society! Social responsibility and sustainability are also key. We did discuss technology and what is - or will be - important in the future. Dr. Kilubi elaborated on AI/ML, IoT and Blockchain for trust and record keeping.

Should digitalization always be the goal? What are the pitfalls? What does a longer and healthier life imply for our work/life balance?

What are the key skills that we need to focus on for success?

Tune in and find out the answers to these questions and so much more!
