Harvey Seifter is one of the world’s leading authorities on organizational creativity, future-ready leadership, and arts-based experiential learning. With a rich background as a classically trained musician and former leader of the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra and the Magic Theatre of San Francisco, Harvey brings a rare synthesis of artistry and strategy.

Through The Art of Science Learning, funded by the National Science Foundation, he led groundbreaking research that established a direct link between arts-based learning and improved creativity, collaboration, and innovation in fields as diverse as science, healthcare, and education.

As a co-founder of Creating Futures That Work, Harvey has helped shape the future of leadership through immersive, arts-infused learning experiences that develop high-performance teams and purpose-driven organizations.

In this conversation, Harvey reminds us that in a world of accelerating change, empathy is not a soft skill, it’s a strategic one. That in the future, there will be no distinction between leaders and innovators. And that the deepest, most enduring work happens when we choose projects aligned with purpose. Through his eyes, we see leadership not as a role, but as an art — one that calls us to listen deeply, collaborate boldly, and create futures that work for all.
