Muhammad Lila
Finding the Hero: Building Resilient Teams Through Reframing and Perspective

Emmy-nominated war correspondent Muhammad Lila spent over a decade reporting from the world's most dangerous places - Afghanistan, Syria, Ukraine, and Gaza - where his job came down to a single discipline: finding the hero in stories the world had written off. What he learned on the front lines about people, pressure, and the quiet power of perspective - is what he is now sharing with the world. In this keynote, Muhammad shows how the simple act of reframing can change the way we show up at work, at home, and on the teams we lead. He offers a practical framework for finding strength in difficult moments and building the kind of resilience that holds - long after the room has cleared.
