Modern life is full of chance encounters, changing plans, delayed journeys, human errors, and unforeseen events. This uncertainty can be destabilizing and anxiety-inducing, especially when many of the forces at work are out of our control. But what if we could use such unpredictability to our advantage? Dr. Christian Busch has spent a decade exploring how, if acted upon, unexpected moments can enhance our worldview, expand our social circles, and create new opportunities for innovation and impact.

In this talk, Dr. Christian Busch, Director of the NYUSPS Center for Global Affairs Global Economy Concentration, will share how we can use uncertainty as a pathway to more joy, purpose, and success, for organizations and individuals alike. This talk will enable you to:
