We’re living through unprecedented change. Ten years ago, the Responsive.org Manifesto laid out that “the rate of change continues to accelerate” and “the future is increasingly hard to predict.” Today, those principles are more relevant than ever.

I know of no better way to navigate uncertainty than to gather with other executives, founders, and builders to share ideas and learn from each other to design for this rapidly changing future.

We have an incredible lineup of speakers at Responsive Conference 2025, including…

"Redefining Work" with Shelby Wolpa & Suzy Welch, PhD

Suzy Welch, PhD is a renowned business leader and author of multiple bestsellers, including Winning (co-authored with her late husband, Jack Welch), and Becoming You, which she also teaches as a popular course at NYU Stern. Suzy is an advocate for clarity, courage, and values-driven decision-making, and her work has helped millions navigate both personal and professional crossroads. At Responsive Conference 2025, Suzy joins Shelby Wolpa for a fireside chat exploring career reinvention in the age of AI.

Shelby Wolpa has spent 15+ years mastering people operations in high-growth tech companies like Palantir, Instacart, One Medical, and InVision. At InVision, she was the driving force behind their remote work strategies, leading an 800-person workforce spread across 30 countries and 40 U.S. states, all without a single office.

This session is about personal reinvention, navigating uncertainty, and making bold decisions in an era shaped by AI and constant change.

"The Leadership Diamond" at Amy’s Kitchen

If you’ve ever picked up a frozen pizza at Whole Foods, there’s a good chance it came from Amy’s Kitchen. What began as a small, family-run operation in Petaluma, California has grown into a nationally recognized organic food brand with more than 2,700 employees and distribution across the U.S.

As Vice President of Procurement, Tim Griffin has helped Amy’s Kitchen navigate global supply chain complexity, deepen its regenerative agriculture partnerships, and future-proof its procurement systems amid growing climate and market challenges.

At Responsive Conference 2025, Tim will join Andrea Robb and Doug Kirkpatrick for a conversation about Peter Kostenbaum’s Leadership Diamond. They will explore what it takes to grow a business from a family-run shop into a global operation without losing the soul it started with.
