He is also an Advisor at the Emergence Project for Purposeful Entrepreneurship at Stanford University. 

Andres has a fresh and unique take on leadership and he shares a number of them in our conversation. On the day we recorded, he released his first book, Facilitating Leadership. I found it interesting that the book's co-author was....ChatGPT! He wrote the book in thirty days and he shares what that process was like.
