A discussion on the general scientific consensus that screen
addiction is a real thing correlating to attention disorders,
narcissistic tendencies, and what one of our guests calls "the
infantilization of the brain." Still, there seems to be no sign
that many of us are willing to give up the digital world, regardless
of science. So where does that leave businesses, schools, and other
institutions that require people who can concentrate, work in teams,
and resist immediate gratification? Join us as we discuss this
question and others with a well-known neuroscientist and a
local business owner who both have paid considerable attention to how
the digital world impacts us all.
Panelists:
- Baroness Susan Greenfield, CBE, FRCP, Founder and CEO of
Neuro-Bio Ltd.
- Jeff Koeze, J.D., President and Chairman, Koeze
Company; Partner, Nuthatch Software
Moderator:
- Michael DeWilde, Director, Koeze Business Ethics Initiative

Should businesses and organizations mandate Covid-19 vaccines for
their employees? What are the legal, financial, morale and health
ramifications if they do? if they don't? Do they have a greater
obligation to respect their employees' autonomy, or a greater
obligation to wider public health concerns? Are they more likely to
gain or lose employees (and customers) if they issue a mandate? Join
us Thursday Oct. 7th as three experts from medicine, law and ethics,
respectively, take up the issues that attend to vaccine mandates.
Panelists:
- Dr. Alejandro Quiroga (MD, MBA), Senior Vice President
Population Health at Spectrum Health

M&A Member at Miller Johnson
