Why does diplomacy matter — especially now?

In this episode of The Impact Exchange, John Frehse speaks with Ambassador Lee Feinstein, President of McLarty Associates and a seasoned diplomat whose career spans the Pentagon, the State Department, and the U.S. Embassy, in a conversation "On Diplomacy."

Together, they explore the philosophy and real‑world value of diplomacy across government, business, and personal life — highlighting the timeless principles that make it effective: clear communication, trust‑building, long‑term strategic thinking, and the ability to understand both your own position and the one across the table.

They also discuss the growing danger of today's short‑term mindset and why sustainable outcomes require a willingness to think beyond today.

Click through to hear Ambassador Feinstein's insights on why diplomacy still shapes the world — and how it can help all of us drive stronger outcomes.
