Curiosity is not innate, it is a practice that you can learn and refine. “In leadership circles, curiosity is often treated as a personality trait,” Prof. Karl Moore writes in Forbes.com. “You either have an inquiring mind, or you do not. And if you do not, that is simply how you are.”

Generative AI has begun replacing tasks at work, especially the dull, repetitive and simple ones. But when a task—or an entire job—is replaced by AI, the change doesn’t stop there. The jobs of the people using AI-produced information change too. “The implications are much wider ranging and touch many more jobs than the initial job,” says ѲپDZٱ, Assistant Professor of Organizational Behaviour.

At the 2026 Winter Olympics in Italy, Canada finished eighth in the total medal count. It was the country’s lowest Winter Olympic medal tally since the 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake City. The result is a failure of leadership; Prof. Karl Moore writes in Forbes.com. For many would-be Olympians, the costs are simply out of reach. Elite athletic programs don’t get sufficient funding, and according to the Canadian Olympic Committee, athletes are paying an average of $25,000 each year out of pocket just to compete.
