Ignatian Leadership at the Intersection of Artificial Intelligence, Human Dignity, Justice, and Labor
Against the backdrop of rapid advancements in artificial intelligence (AI), the principles of Ignatian leadership—rooted in the teachings of St. Ignatius of Loyola—offer a valuable framework for navigating some challenges, at least I hope so.

Technological Changes on the Horizon: The Covid Effect
The year is 2035, and we are in our third year of lockdown to protect ourselves from Covid-23. We retained very little of the lessons learned when it all began towards the end of 2019, as far as we know. The nature of school and work changed, and some will say for the better. However,…
The Cowardly act of Cyberbullying
