My name is Shannon Mullen O’Keefe. I’m the curator of The Museum of Ideas. The Museum is a place for the art of the mind to shine.
I invite you to visit.
“The imagination has no limits.
The physical world does.
The work exists in both.”
― Rick Rubin, The Creative Act: A Way of Being
About me?
I’m a lover of wisdom, dedicated to imagining what we can build and achieve together. I operate from a place of curiosity, inviting questions, and reflections in order to call to light the hidden messages that surround us everywhere. I believe there is power in what is often unseen, unsaid, or invisible.
What does this look like practically speaking?
I’m building a new place to celebrate the beauty and transformative power of human creators, thinkers, entrepreneurs and artists and their thoughts and ideas by encouraging and promoting their imagination, exploration and collaborative spirit, in bespoke projects and products that uplift, promote and encourage thinking.
I’m also a thinker, writer, curator, and leader of collaborative teams. I’ve served in leadership and executive roles in a global professional services firm and in a nature-based nonprofit organization. I’ve led global scale projects and culture change initiatives. I’ve contributed to thought leadership articles, newsletters and reports. I’ve co-curated an artistic exhibition and installation for a global audience and have facilitated conversations about AI and technology ethics.
I frequently contribute my reflections on the invisible things all around us that matter to our lives and leadership.
I collaborate with leaders, thinkers, and everyday experts to publish collaborative thought pieces which invite thinking about our better future.
I coauthored a book about moral questions for technology leaders published in January of 2024. Check it out at 10moralquestions.com
