We explore how leaders can trade command-and-control for curiosity, build digital flexibility instead of defaulting to one channel, and use community to protect attention in a noisy, hybrid world. Craig shares stories behind Digital Overwhelm and practical ways to switch modes, set boundaries, and grow social capital that lasts.
• leading amid fast, relentless change
• listening as a core leadership skill
• filtering noise versus flexibility with modes
• practical boundaries and single-use tools
• old tech for deep focus and brain health
• teams, pit stops and shared norms
• why Craig wrote Digital Overwhelm

• communicating across generations with respect
• questions over commands and tracking consequences
• social capital and the “relationship score”
• task and gift: a healthier view of communication
