What an inspiring week at Cambridge Judge Business School as we celebrated the graduation of the latest cohort of the Senior Management Programme for Latin America. 🧑‍🎓 📜 

This group of 34 leaders from 12 countries brought curiosity, courage, and a deep commitment to creating impact across their organizations and communities. Watching them connect ideas with real-world challenges — and with each other — has been a privilege.

I’m grateful to play a small part in a programme that blends world-class teaching, thoughtful design, and a strong culture of reflection and growth. Every cohort reinforces the power of bringing diverse leaders together to learn, challenge assumptions, and support one another. 

A big thank you to Suzanne Weeks for her leadership and umatched commitment to excellence that makes a team of talented leadership consultants come together to provide meaningful individualized professional development opportunities to all participants. (Looking at you Katie Dardagan , Estefanía Yome, Miguel Ángel Sanz, PhD , Eva Fernández Jordana, and Delphine Bondu!) 

Congratulations to all the graduates — the work ahead is important, and you’re leaving Cambridge with the clarity and momentum to make it happen.  👏

So excited to share that National University of Natural Medicine has secured the purchase of the Woolworth Building in downtown Portland as the school's new site. 

Facilities are much more than walls and windows; they set the tone for the culture and learning that will take place for years to come. I am thrilled that the NUNM community will have a great new home to continue to advance the important mission of having natural medicine play a greater role in our society. 

There has never been a more exciting time to be a student at NUNM! 

Thinking of going into natural medicine? Reach out to NUNM! 

Congrats to Melanie Henriksen, ND, LAc, CNM, Iris Sobottke MA, NCC , my fellow board members, and the incredibly talented and dedicated team at NUNM, who have helped make this a reality.

This isn’t just a campus move. It’s a celebration of who we are and who we’re becoming. A space where our students, clinicians, researchers, and staff can come together under one roof to learn, to heal, to innovate, and to build the future of integrative health.
For everyone who has believed in NUNM’s mission, thank you. This is your milestone too.

In this role, I’m working closely with ASU faculty, superintendents, principals, teachers, and leaders from the community to design new educator roles in P-12 schools and how to best support and develop people who choose those opportunities. This work concerns not only current educators, but also others who may aspire to impact students but don’t yet see a path to do so. Additionally, I’m thinking about new ways for educators to signal training or expertise—including the use of specializations and micro-credentials.
