They also talked about:

  • How Wolff’s previous experience working with leaders at tech giants like Facebook and Netflix helped shape her leadership style
  • The importance of working with indigenous groups to learn how people have been managing the land for centuries
  • The key role AI places when it comes to monitoring land management and creating adaptive planning
