On Sunday, June 29 at 7:00 pm, Justice Southbury will offer the twenty-fourth in its Speaker Series of interactive Zoom conversations. Kelly Dowd MBA, author and entrepreneur, will discuss his new book “The Power of HANDS,” in which he argues that “In a time of rapid change and digital acceleration, the most overlooked innovation tool remains our humanity.”
The Zoom presentation will explore how integrative collaboration – across disciplines, identities and industries – can spark sustainable solutions through empathy, strategy, and bold design. As Kelly says, “Drawing on my new book, we’ll uncover how systems change when human potential is fully activated.” Kelly’s motto: “You wouldn’t move into a home without a floorplan; so why live inside a self you didn’t design.”
Kelly Dowd MBA is a strategic empath, innovation designer, and author of “The Power of HANDS: Designing a Sustainable Future Through Integrative Collaboration.” Founder of FIDA Design Inc., Kelly advises global leaders on human-centered innovation, blending architecture, AI, and systems thinking to advance social, environmental, and business impact. Their work reimagines the future – one integrative collaboration at a time. Kelly is a native of Nigeria and resides in Ohio.
