Many members of CRH are attending the ASH 2024 meeting. I’m honored to have received an invitation to present at ASH this year. Join me this afternoon at 4:30 PM in Room 31!
My first time at the Disney Data and Analytics Conference - what an incredible experience! So many takeaways, especially about how adaptation and thoughtful application of AI is improving outcomes across multiple industries. I gained a new respect for its benefits and challenges and the need for creating a set of guidelines to help manage its responsible use, especially in educational settings.
I’ve always valued and championed using data to inform decision-making, but seeing how organizations like Disney innovate to leverage data for everything from improving customer experiences to leadership excellence to operational efficiency was exciting to see. Plus, I got to spend time with some brilliant and creative people—both from Disney and other organizations—who are pushing the boundaries of what AI and data analytics can achieve.
At the same time, an underlying message that resonated for me was this: while technology drives efficiency and new possibilities, it still needs to be designed with empathy and understanding of human needs. Advancements in AI, robotics, or data analytics should enhance our lives rather than replace genuine connection and well-being. We need to keep people at the core so that institutions and organizations can harness technology to create solutions that are both innovative and meaningful. It was a reminder that using technology to simply check a box or make a process more efficient doesn’t foster trust or long-term value for those who are served by our organizations or those who dedicate themselves to making their organizations successful.

🤔 The History of Rotary Club and BNI: Lessons in Leadership, Networking, and Community Service. Thank you Dr David Foo for the sharing 😁 💪 👍
The Rotary Club and Business Network International (BNI) are two iconic organizations that have profoundly impacted professional networking and community service worldwide.
Rotary Club: Founded on February 23, 1905, by attorney Paul P. Harris in Chicago, Illinois, the Rotary Club started as a gathering of professionals from diverse backgrounds to share ideas and foster friendships. Harris and his friends envisioned a space to recreate the close-knit community spirit of their hometowns. The name "Rotary" was inspired by the initial meetings rotating among members' offices. Today, Rotary International has grown to over 1.2 million members in more than 35,000 clubs globally, dedicated to humanitarian services, promoting goodwill, and fostering peace.
BNI: Business Network International (BNI) was founded in January 1985 by Dr. Ivan Misner in Arcadia, California. BNI was established to provide a structured, positive, and professional referral marketing program, allowing members to develop long-term, meaningful relationships with other quality business professionals. The organization, which ensures no conflicts of interest by allowing only one representative from each profession per chapter, has grown to over 300,000 members across 79 countries.
Lessons Learned:
👉 Community Building: Both organizations emphasize the power of community and collaboration. By bringing together individuals with diverse expertise, they create environments where innovative ideas and mutual support thrive.
👉 Structured Networking: The structured approach of both Rotary and BNI highlights the importance of having a clear framework for networking and professional growth.
👉 Commitment to Service: Rotary's focus on humanitarian efforts and BNI's dedication to professional development remind us of the impact of serving others and contributing to the greater good.
👉 Adaptability and Growth: From their humble beginnings, both organizations have adapted and grown, showing the importance of evolving with the times while staying true to core values.
By learning from these pioneering organizations, we can better understand the importance of community, structured networking, service, and adaptability in both personal and professional realms.
