Adam Conover. He challenges my brain to think beyond "what I've always known to be true" and makes me laugh in the process - the best of all worlds for me!

Benjamin Franklin - as an innovator and inventor I'd love to get his opinion on some modern-day technology. What would he say about Smartsheet? How would he improve Smartsheet? I bet he would use it to organize, categorize and collaborate on his inventions.

As I read through all the prior submissions and gave this some thought - I would have Rev Dr. (Mister) Fred Rogers as my first guest. We live in a world of tribalism, created through fear that is polarizing, dividing and radicalizing. In turn hate, violence, racisms and classism is taking hold to widening the gaps that will set generations of people to suffer instead of a modern age of flourishing humanism and enlightenment.

oh this is a fun one! I would interview Benjamin Franklin and Steve Jobs for leadership knowledge and then a few presidents to know what REALLY goes on behind the curtains!

Mother Theresa. What an incredible opportunity to hear and share words with the most humble and kind people this world has ever known. Her selflessness and concern for the most marginalized of human beings all over the world. Her work lives on today through the work of many others and her legacy is strong with the Missionaries of Charity. Dignity for all!

I think it would be my 92 yo grandmother. She has seen so many things in her lifetime! Coming from a small mining town in Michigan, then spending most of her lifetime in the Pacific Northwest before she moved to Arizona about 25 yrs ago.
So many changes over her years on this earth that I would love her take on... are they changed for the good, bad, or indifferent!

Audry Hepburn. She survived WW II in Europe and pursued her passion for dance and theater to become an Iconic Actress. Her humanitarian work was amazing. She was an overcomer, generous, and compassionate.
A great example of how to overcome the worst of situations and change the world for the better in the time we live.

King Sejong from the Korean Joseon Dynasty era. He invented (really sponsored but took credit for) the modern Korean alphabet (hangul). Before Hangul, Koreans used Chinese characters to write. Chinese is notoriously difficult to master so Korea had a very low literacy rate. King Sejong wanted to bring writing and reading in Korean to the common man.
Hangul has 24 letters (10 vowels and 14 consonants) and is written in block form. Korean is widely touted as the most logical writing system in the world. Each of the 24 letters has a distinct phonetic sound, unlike English where the letter C can have a k or s sound.
I'd like to ask King Sejong why he wanted to increase literacy in Korea despite opposition from the noble and scholar classes.

I'm not too sure how people feel about this but I would go through a Q&A with Elon Musk. I've recently read his biography and it is very fascinating.
I'd love to pick his brain about AI, upcoming advancements, and breaking through technological barriers.

My first guest would be Cher. A powerful woman who has accomplished so much in her lifetime!

If I had a talk show, Brené Brown would be the first person I’d want to call up — her work on shame and vulnerability has been so incredibly helpful to me in both professional and personal spaces, and I think everyone has something to learn from her.

Jim Henson. How he came up with the idea of the Muppets, how he learnt to do the character voices, design and look of them all.... would be such a fascinating conversation, and I think we'd all be reminded how special it is to never loose that spark/inner child in us :)
