Making Sense of the 2020s: What the Rest of This Decade Will Require From Leaders in Policy, Politics & Communications

“Leadership is not about one’s title, but rather the ability to inspire, empower, and unite others towards a common purpose.” – Pete Buttigieg

In this thought-provoking talk, Pete Buttigieg unpacks the defining challenges of the 2020s and what they demand from leaders in policy, politics and communication. Drawing from his experience as a mayor, military officer, presidential candidate and U.S. Cabinet member, he explores the lessons learned from navigating crises, advancing major policy initiatives and bridging divides in a rapidly changing world. With insights on resilience, effective leadership and the evolving role of communication in shaping public trust, Buttigieg offers a roadmap for those who seek to lead with clarity and purpose in this pivotal decade.
