. @Uber, you picked up my nephew 21 minutes late for a SCHEDULED Uber. He was late for his very expensive tutor. Contacting support for this is impossible. Poor service all around. :(

Day 1 of #CLON26 delivered serious fun! @cryswashington sparked BIG ideas and even bigger energy. While the hugs, handshakes, and “So great to see you!” moments made it unforgettable. 💙 What was your favorite part of Day 1? Drop it below ⬇️ Day 2, let’s go! 🚀

Such an amazing conference!

Crystal Washington (@cryswashington) is a certified futurist, technology strategist and author who equips organizations with the knowledge they need to become “future-proof.” This April, Crystal will present “Future-Proof Yourself.” ICANconference.com

Per usual . . . More great feedback on @cryswashington "Crystal was outstanding! We have received really positive feedback on her presentation, and she was a delight to work with."

“If you don’t know why you’re on social media, it’s very easy for it to start using you instead of you using it.” In the latest episode of #NextStepsForward, I sat down with @cryswashington, futurist, author, and Hall of Fame speaker, to talk about intentionality online and why so many professionals end up on social platforms without ever stopping to ask why. As Crystal puts it, our time is valuable. Time spent scrolling is time we could be using for personal growth, family, volunteering… or even a much-needed nap (which she reminds us are wildly underrated 😴). When we don’t lead with purpose, our attention becomes the product. 🎧 Catch the full conversation on @VoiceAmericaTRN and hear Crystal’s powerful perspective on reclaiming control of your digital presence. voiceamericamedia.com/show/n… #SocialMediaStrategy #IntentionalLiving #PersonalDevelopment #DigitalWellbeing

I am so upset w/ @united . Delayed my family's flight UA492 4x and erased boarding passes and had to rescan plane. Also delayed my other family member's flight UA1815 whose supposed to meet us at destination. Shame!

Gr8 review of @cryswashington engagement, proving she's a quintessential professional speaker-even w/ adverse conditions "The keynote was wonderful. We have had a ton of awesome feedback. We cannot thank Crystal enough for the patience & flexibility she had with the power outage"

We’re living through change at record speed. 💥 @cryswashington reminds us: positivity isn’t enough — the longer we do things one way, the more we resist change. Time to think forward. 🔗 eaglestalent.com/crystal-was… #CrystalWashington #ChangeLeadership #FutureOfWork #Innovation

. @BeautifulAI_ I'm no longer able to add audio to my slides since the update. The Playback-> Audio option has both Record and Upload File grayed out. This wasn't a problem before. Grrr.

. @united I spend too much money with you as 1K to deal with rude gate agents. The gentleman boarding UA676 to Austin today gets 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽. I normally get great service.

“In the 1980s, if you wanted to be a fairly techie person, all you had to do was be able to program your VCR and use a fax machine. Congratulations, you were a techie in the ‘80s! “Right now, today, if I were to take all the technological information that would be useful in your role and download it into your brain right now today, by tomorrow it would be outdated.” At #CitySummit24, we heard from the amazing AI specialist, futurist and author @cryswashington on the power of AI and its possibilities. In her presentation, Washington stressed how it’s impossible to be fully caught up on technology in today’s day and age. But that’s okay – because neither is everyone else. The goal is not to be caught up, but rather, to adopt a culture of curiosity like a child still exploring how the world works.

Listening to @cryswashington @CMMA conference at San Francisco today! Enjoying it! 😍 embracing change is sooo important! @ICPMA2

The @ESOPAssociation's #EO24 is underway! Thanks @cryswashington for wowing the crowd during our conference open! Who's ready for today's Main Stage guest, @damonwest7? See you at 8am for Day Two!

It’s so hard to accept that #CitySummit24 is almost over. 😭 Especially after today’s amazing Afternoon General Session! Today’s session focused on the future – with an emphasis on AI. We heard from Mistique Cano, Director of Policy and Public Affairs at NLC Centennial Sponsor @Google (and a former NLC intern!) on our newly released AI Report and Toolkit, informed by NLC’s AI Advisory Committee. We heard from NLC CEO @ceanthony50 on the necessity of cybersecurity training for cities, towns and villages. We heard from city leaders on how AI has benefited their communities. And finally, we heard from AI specialist, futurist and author @cryswashington on the power of AI, and its possibilities and pitfalls. “Don’t try to be caught up,” Washington advised. “Instead, adopt a culture of curiosity.” There is still one day left of City Summit, and we plan to savor every second of it! 😁 Stay tuned for more photos and videos as we wrap up an incredible week! #NLC100
