Marc Tawil nos alerta para um silêncio perigoso: não o da ausência de som, mas o da falta de escuta. Em um mundo onde sete gerações convivem ao mesmo tempo — da silenciosa à Z — perdemos afeto, presença e inteligência coletiva quando deixamos de ouvir umas às outras. Para Tawil, escutar é um ato de resistência, uma tecnologia social capaz de unir diferentes idades, fortalecer equipes e transformar relações. Afinal, o que acontece quando paramos de escutar? E, mais ainda, o que podemos reconstruir quando o diálogo entre gerações volta a ser prioridade? Estrategista de Comunicação multipremiado. Foi eleito em 2024 e 2025, o Especialista Nº 1 em Comunicação no LinkedIn Brasil pela Favikon.
