Bots & Brains: The Science of Leading in the Age of AI

  • The Hub, by Citizens4Community 291 East Main Avenue Sisters, OR, 97759 United States (map)

AI is here. Is your organization ready?

Artificial intelligence is already reshaping how we work – often faster than we feel ready for. Some people are excited. Others are uneasy. Most of us are just trying to figure out what this all means for our jobs, our teams, and our future.

Join C4C and Scott Crabtree, Founder and Chief Happiness Officer of Happy Brain Science, for a science-based talk that will cut through the hype and fear to focus on what actually helps humans and organizations thrive alongside AI.

Drawing on neuroscience, psychology, and real-world workplace examples, Scott will discuss how AI is changing decision-making, learning, creativity, and leadership – and what skills matter most now.

At this FREE workshop, you’ll learn:

  • Why the most effective leaders (and workers) in an AI world don’t need all the answers

  • How to shift from “knowing” to asking better questions

  • Which human skills become more valuable – not less – as AI gets smarter

This session is for anyone who works with other people, leads in any capacity, or wants to feel more confident navigating rapid change. No technical background required – just curiosity. Complimentary refreshments will be provided; accessibility services are available (see below).

This workshop is free, but space is limited. Register now:

Scott Crabtree, Co-Founder and Chief Happiness Officer at Happy Brain Science.

About Scott Crabtree

Scott Crabtree helps people apply science to thrive at work. After earning a degree in cognitive science from Vassar College, he went on to lead the design and development of video games and other software. He discovered the science of thriving (positive psychology and other brain sciences) in 2003 and immediately became a passionate student and teacher of that research. He resigned his senior leadership position at Intel in 2011 to found Happy Brain Science.

His Happy Brain Science clients include DreamWorks, Nike, Kaiser-Permanente, Boeing, Intel, Hewlett-Packard, Activision, Blizzard Entertainment, and NBC.

Scott continues to use his game development background to ‘gamify’ all of his keynotes and workshops. He applies the latest findings from adult learning and hears from audience members years later that they still remember and apply his immediately applicable techniques. He’s also produced the successful ‘serious card game’ Choose Happiness @ Work (now also available as an online game).

When not presenting the science of thriving at work, Scott enjoys playing music and getting into Oregon wilderness, especially with his wife and two daughters.
