Description

In this episode of the Positive Leadership Podcast, I sit down with Rana el Kaliouby, AI scientist, entrepreneur, investor and thought leader in the field of artificial emotional intelligence. 

From growing up in Cairo to studying at MIT and co-founding Affectiva, Rana has spent her career bridging the gap between human emotions and technology. Today, as Deputy CEO at Smart Eye and founder of the ethical AI venture fund Blue Tulip, she continues to champion a more empathetic, inclusive, and human-centered approach to innovation. 

Together, they explore: 

• Why emotional intelligence matters more than ever in today’s AI-driven world 
• How leaders can foster trust, diversity, and belonging through empathy 
• What it means to be a humanist in a digital age 

Rana’s story is one of bold vision, resilience, and a deep belief in technology as a force for good. 

🎧 Tune in for a conversation that will inspire you to lead with both head and heart.
