Welcome to Leading Across Difference, where we believe growth isn’t just a goal—it’s a process rooted in intention, nurtured with care, and harvested with purpose. Led by Dr. Shari Miles-Cohen, our practice blends psychological insight, strategic innovation, and lessons from the land to help people and organizations thrive.
Whether you're tending to a vision in its earliest stages or replanting in new soil after a season of change, Leading Across Difference provides the tools, support, and strategies to help you grow.

Planting Progress: Ethical AI and the Wisdom of Dormancy with Nicole Alexander
Together, we’ll explore what it means to engage emerging technologies with intention, restraint, and care—especially when the pressure is to move faster than reflection allows.
Rather than focusing on tools or trends, this conversation centers on questions leaders are already holding:
When does speed become a risk rather than an advantage?
Where might pause, review, or guardrails actually lead to better outcomes?
How do we design AI systems that support human judgment, creativity, and dignity—rather than erode them?
