Leading with Purpose: Fireside Chat with Tim Rowe
This special conversation, “Leading with Purpose: Innovation, Community, and Belonging,” goes beyond buzzwords. We’ll reflect on how leaders and communities can cultivate environments where everyone feels seen, valued, and empowered, and how innovation can be a tool for human connection and meaningful impact.
In a world where change can feel overwhelming, this fireside chat offers a moment to pause and ask: How do we build organizations that uplift people’s lives? What does leadership rooted in belonging truly look like? And how can innovation strengthen, rather than fragment, our communities?
Join this curated gathering of founders, students, professionals, and civic leaders - sharing space with Tim Rowe, CEO of the Cambridge Innovation Center. Together, we’ll explore these essential questions with honesty, warmth, and vision.
