May Samali is the Founder and CEO of Human Leadership Lab. A Harvard Medical School Fellow and board director, she combines science, coaching, and strategy to help leaders evolve. May is a frequent keynote speaker and has been featured in Forbes, TechCrunch, and the Stanford Social Innovation Review. With deep experience across investment, entrepreneurship, and organisational transformation, she’s on a mission to unlock human leadership at scale.
In the world of startups, we A/B test everything—except ourselves. In this session, May Samali shares how to bring a scientific mindset to leadership, decision-making, and growth. You'll learn how to design and run small, purposeful experiments that build self-awareness, strengthen your leadership brand, and unlock career momentum. With practical frameworks, real-world stories, and a nudge of courage, this is a must-attend for leaders navigating change. You’ll leave ready to test, iterate, and lead better.
With five tracks running across the first‑ever Startup People Summit, even the most committed note‑takers couldn’t catch it all live.
Now, you don’t have to miss a thing.
The SPS 2025 On‑Demand channel is ready. Packed with 40+ session recordings from every track, game‑changing ideas from all our speakers, and 12 months to watch, rewatch, and take notes at your own pace.
But SPS was never just an event. With the All Access Bundle, you’ll get everything in On‑Demand, plus join our new private SPS Community—a year‑round space where startup People professionals share challenges and wins in real time, swap fresh ideas and frameworks, collaborate on solutions, and know they’re not doing this work alone. Because the real value of SPS isn’t just in what we heard, it’s in what we can build together next.
