Denver, Colorado --Oxford Talk Spotlight: Kathryn Jacobs – “Living Awake in a Tech World”
I’m thrilled to share this Oxford Talk by Kathryn Jacobs, a powerful voice in the space where technology, leadership, and intentional living intersect. After delivering my own Oxford Talk, I had the pleasure of introducing Kathryn to the organizers — and I knew her story needed to be heard on that stage.
In her talk, Kathryn shares how a journey that began with physical recovery turned into two decades of cycling across 35,000 km and 60 countries, exploring how our relationship with technology shapes the way we live and lead. As a seasoned corporate technologist and strategist, she brings firsthand insight into the tension between innovation and intentionality — offering a timely message about what it means to stay present and purposeful in a hyperconnected world. It’s a message that deeply resonates with board leaders and professionals navigating digital transformation.
