Introduction
In a world increasingly shaped by AI and rapid technological advancement, technical
tools are more powerful and more necessary than ever. Automation and data have
transformed how we communicate, hire, and make decisions. The workforce is moving faster, and efficiency is no longer optional.
But while technology enhances business, it does not replace the human element.
Hiring decisions — and most meaningful business decisions — are still built on trust,
judgment, and relationships. Data can inform you, but it cannot fully measure character, ambition, or cultural fit.
In this session, Michael Breslin and Dylan Sullivan, Co-Founder and Managing Director at Landing Point, respectively, will provide the tools needed to develop meaningful connections built through consistency and value.
