What does the world need, and how can we build it together?

What does the world need, and how can we build it together?

Ben Keene has spent over 20 years building tribes, not just teams, from eco-tourism projects in Fiji to Rebel Book Club and AI climate startups.


In this episode of Human in the Machine, we explore what it means to lead, learn, and connect in an age of intelligent systems and fractured attention. You’ll hear how Ben blends technology with intentionality, and why belonging might just be the infrastructure for the future we actually want.


We cover:

  • Building communities that last in a world of constant scroll

  • Leadership that pulls people in — not pushes tasks down

  • Using AI to serve missions, not just metrics

  • And what it means to be truly human in an age of machines

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by AI or just quietly wondering how to stay connected while the world speeds up this one’s for you.
