All Shades of Red

Ep. 1: The Long Arc of Curiosity

Featuring Dr. Mary Lacity In the opening episode of All Shades of Red, we sit down with Dr. Mary Lacity, Distinguished Professor and David D. Glass Chair of Information Systems at the University of Arkansas, for a conversation about curiosity, learning, and the stories that shape a life. This episode looks beyond titles to explore the human journey behind Dr. Lacity’s work — from early influences and formative questions to a career spanning industry, academia, and global research institutions. We reflect on how curiosity develops, how perspectives evolve, and what it means to dedicate a life to asking better questions. The conversation sets the tone for the season: thoughtful, grounded, and centered on the lived experiences that connect us all as learners and leaders.
