Bitcoin's path to $160K by Christmas is still in play, with analysts calling for only an “average” Q4 comeback. Fueling this bullish momentum, KindlyMD shocks Wall Street with a $5B stock offering dedicated to buying Bitcoin - one of the largest corporate treasury moves of the year. At the same time, Japan's Metaplanet approves an $880M raise earmarked almost entirely for BTC, while Venezuela's inflation crisis accelerates grassroots adoption. Geopolitical risk adds another layer, with reports that China could exploit crypto ties to the Trump family. The clock is ticking - Bitcoin's next leg up is here.

Mark Condon, founder of QuantumWork Advisory (QWA), joins us on this episode of The New Talent Code to explore how HR can evolve in the age of AI. We discuss why agility — not skills — should be the starting point for workforce transformation. AI agents are moving the conversation from the theoretical to the tangible applications of what HR can achieve with this growing technology. Condon also shares QWA's “5B model” (build, buy, borrow, bot, bundle) as a framework for shaping the workforce of the future. He highlights the critical need for HR leaders to step into a more strategic role — one that impacts every employee, not just the HR function. Additional takeaways: - Why HR should lead the charge on AI governance and partner with IT to manage emerging risks. - The role of work design — breaking down tasks and redesigning roles — in making organizations more agile. - How storytelling and transparency help overcome leadership hesitation and employee fears around AI. - Why ROI from AI and workforce transformation can be far greater than cost savings alone, creating lasting value for both businesses and employees.

As you all likely know, The President of the United States is the CEO of our country. I’ve tested a lot of CEO candidates for small to mid-sized companies, with annual sales ranging from $50M to $1.5B. These company sizes are obviously not as big as the U.S.A. However, I honestly asked myself if I could recommend President Trump as a hired gun CEO for any of my client companies. My honest answer is clearly no. With all due respect to his supporters, I just perceive President Trump as too toxic and divisive to run a typical private or public company. Believe me, I have recommended candidates I have not particularly liked for some clients based on objective testing and the client’s needs and goals at a particular time. But my perception of President Trump is just too polarizing and negative. I’d prefer someone who I and others would perceive as more grounded, principled, magnanimous, and inclusive, but also inquisitive, capable of systemic thought, adaptive, direct, and decisive. Some Charisma is preferred but not required. I wouldn’t want to have half of the workforce feeling engaged and excited, and the other half feeling angry, intimidated, excluded and passive aggressive. That said, no matter how I feel, there are millions of voters who perceive President Trump very positively: He has great charisma. He inspires people who have lost faith in government. He dominates the media with great persuasive skills. He challenges and explodes cultural norms in ways that excite many people. He can divert people’s attention on a dime from issues that could hurt him. His transactional policies attract many voters. He’s often quite humorous and clever in the ways he diminishes and denigrates his adversaries. He has great energy, drive and stamina. And he acts and makes decisions according to his best interests, his MAGA philosophy and the loyalty of his base, and doesn’t really care what others think (many admire that). In essence, he remains a formidable opponent for any Dem contender. Watch https://www.transformationtalkradio.com/watch.html

News and Updates: Delta defends AI pricing system after lawmakers accused it of “surveillance pricing” to inflate fares. Delta says it does not use personal data for individualized prices—AI only analyzes aggregated demand, competitor offers, and route performance. About 3% of domestic flights now use AI pricing, with plans for 20% by year's end. Critics say vague early explanations fueled public mistrust. FBI warns of QR code scam involving mysterious, sender-less packages. Scammers lure recipients into scanning codes that lead to fake sites or malware downloads, sometimes tied to “brushing” schemes to post fake product reviews. Authorities urge never scanning unknown QR codes. AI startup Perplexity offers $34.5B for Google Chrome amid an antitrust case that could force Google to sell the browser. The bid—nearly double Perplexity's own valuation—comes as a judge weighs remedies for Google's illegal search monopoly. Google has not indicated any willingness to sell. AT&T to pay $177M in settlement over 2019 and 2024 data breaches affecting over 51M customers. Victims can claim up to $5,000 (2019 breach) or $2,500 (2024 breach) for documented losses, or smaller class payouts. Claims due by Nov. 18, 2025; opt-out or object by Oct. 17. Starlink cuts monthly fees for new customers in select U.S. areas—Residential drops from $120 to $99, Lite from $80 to $65—for the first year. Dish hardware discounted to $175.

Tien Tzuo has been at the epicenter of Silicon Valley innovation for three and a half decades. In 1990, Tien was hired by Oracle. Eight years later, he joined Salesforce as employee #11. In 2007, he co-founded Zuora, a company he has been running since its creation. Tien and his team grew Zuora from an idea to a company that was valued at $1.5B when it was acquired in early 2025. In this interview, Tien shares why great startups need to have a visionary who is supported by leaders who can manage both relationships and execution. He dispels the Genius/Jerk myth so often associated with leaders like Steve Jobs, he shares what he has learned about selecting exceptional talent, and Tien discusses how the lessons he has learned about founders apply to other businesses and in our personal lives too. He closes the interview by sharing what fills him with optimism and what mistakes humans are making today that the people of 2075 will look back at in disbelief. Tien currently serves as CEO of Zuora (NYSE:ZUO), a company he co-founded in 2007 and took public in 2018. Under Tien's leadership, Zuora has emerged as the leading evangelist of the Subscription Economy -- the idea that all industries are shifting to a customer-centric, subscription-based business model. He is also the author of "SUBSCRIBED: Why the Subscription Model Will Be Your Company's Future - and What to Do About It". His second book, “Founders, Keepers: Why Founders Are Built to Fail, and What It Takes to Succeed,” was released in June 2025.
