Podcasts about Agility

Nearly every marketing leader has been told to "do more with AI" — and many of them are now sitting on a pile of pilots, a growing bill, and not much to show their CFO. So why is it that adoption of AI in marketing is so high, while the number of organizations actually getting predictable returns from it is so low?Agility requires the discipline to reimagine how work gets done before automating it — because pointing AI at a broken process just produces a faster broken process.Today, we're going to talk about:- Why so many enterprise AI initiatives stall between ambition and production, and what separates the organizations that succeed from the ones that quietly cancel their projects- How marketing and CX teams can move from disconnected experiments to a governed, agent-powered operating model that turns a brief into live 1:1 engagement- How to make the economics of AI predictable — so the people approving these investments can actually forecast both outcomes and costTo help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Don Schuerman, CTO & Head of Marketing at Pega. About Don Schuerman As CTO and Vice President of Marketing & Technology Strategy at Pegasystems, I see my role as being a "Chief Translation Officer" – bridging the gap between cutting-edge technology and real-world business value. With 25 years of experience in orchestration and AI technology, I'm passionate about translating complex technical concepts into meaningful solutions that drive digital transformation for global organizations. My approach to technology leadership has been shaped by an unexpected source: 20 years of improv comedy at ImprovBoston's Mainstage. The skills I honed there – active listening, storytelling, and thinking on my feet – now help me connect with both technical teams and business leaders. It's where I also met my wife, proving that sometimes the best partnerships form when you say "yes, and..." At Pega, I lead the intersection of technology and go-to-market strategy across our enterprise AI decisioning and workflow automation platform. My focus is two-fold: translating the power of technology into tangible value for our Fortune 500 clients, while ensuring our technology roadmap reflects the evolving needs of these organizations.

Simplicity in Agile: The Art of Maximizing Work Not DoneSimplicity is preached in Agile, yet somehow, we are tangled up in complex system processes and frameworks. And if you've worked with Agile at scale, you've probably seen it: what started as a powerful mechanism for flexibility and speed now seems more like a convoluted system of frameworks, metrics, and reports, ironically complicating the very agility it sought to enhance..This paradox isn't just a minor hiccup. It's a core problem in the way Agile is scaled today. The idea of simplifying work gets lost under layers of practices and processes that complicate the very thing Agile is meant to improve: Agility.- [website] ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.agiledad.com/⁠⁠⁠⁠- [instagram] ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.instagram.com/agile_coach/⁠⁠⁠⁠- [facebook] ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.facebook.com/RealAgileDad/⁠⁠⁠⁠- [Linkedin] ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/leehenson/

Send me a messageWhat if supply chain resilience is already too slow for the world we're now operating in?In this episode of the Resilient Supply Chain Podcast, I'm joined by Abe Eshkenazi, CEO of ASCM, the Association for Supply Chain Management. Abe has watched supply chain move from a quiet back-office function to a boardroom priority, and this conversation gets into why that shift matters now, as export controls, tariffs, climate volatility, cybersecurity, sustainability pressures, and supplier risk collide in real time.You'll hear how agility has become more than a contingency plan. Abe makes the case that resilient supply chains are no longer just about recovering after a shock. They are about seeing earlier, deciding faster, and building optionality before disruption turns expensive. We break down why supply chain visibility is now table stakes, but also why knowing who and what is in your supplier network creates a harder question: should those suppliers still be there?We also explore the tension between CFOs pushing for lower inventory and cash flow discipline, and supply chain leaders pushing for flexibility, resilience, and long-term capability. Abe explains why AI in supply chain, automation, data, and real-time visibility matter, but also why technology without talent and critical thinking can become another risk vector. And you might be surprised by the cybersecurity angle: connecting the extended supply chain solves one visibility problem, while opening up new exposure through smaller suppliers.

How many marketing leaders can confidently tell their CEO which specific AI use cases are actually driving revenue right now, and which ones are just running up the bill as experiments?Agility isn't just about adapting to new tech like AI. It's about building the solid data and operational models that let you connect those innovations directly to business growth.Today, we are here at CRMC 2026 in Frisco Texas, and we're going to talk about:- Moving beyond campaign metrics to directly link lifecycle marketing programs to revenue.- Separating the hype from reality to identify where AI is delivering tangible results in marketing right now.- Rethinking your operating model—what to own, what to outsource, and how to build a first-party data foundation that supports it all.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Matt Kelly, Growth Strategy Partner at Mavlers.

What if the future of marketing isn't about creating better campaigns, but about designing intelligent agents that render campaigns obsolete?Agility requires not just adapting to new technologies, but fundamentally re-architecting our operating models to harness their potential. Today, we're going to talk about the move from personalization to agentic experiences and what that means for enterprise marketing.We'll cover:- How “agentic experiences” are moving beyond simple personalization to fundamentally change the economics of customer acquisition and retention.- The shift in talent and technology required, moving from managing campaigns to orchestrating AI agents across the customer journey.- The practical first steps for building an “agentic foundation” within a complex enterprise environment, focusing on governance and core systems.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Kathleen Managing Director of Marketing and Anuj Mathur, Managing Director of CX Transformation at BrillioAbout Kathleen Ulrich Kathleen Ulrich is Managing Director of Marketing at Brillio, where she leads the company's global marketing strategy and brand growth.

You do not need to be the biggest. You need to be the fastest. In this episode of The Level Up Podcast, Paul Alex breaks down the agility advantage and why small businesses can use speed to beat massive competitors. Let's be real… Big companies have money. They have staff. They have market share. But they also have red tape. Approval chains. Slow decisions. And endless friction. That is where you can win. In this episode, you'll learn: Why size can create massive operational friction How small businesses can use speed as a competitive weapon Why acting too corporate too early destroys your advantage How rapid execution and fast pivots help you steal market share The truth is simple: A giant company may take four months to approve a campaign. You can make the move this week. They may need a board meeting. You can make a decision today. They may be trapped in bureaucracy. You can listen to the market, adjust the offer, and launch before they even react. That is the power of agility. Most small businesses lose because they try to look bigger than they are. High-level operators use their size as an advantage. They stay lean. They move fast. They trust their team. They strike while the giants are sleeping. Speed creates separation. Agility creates opportunity. Execution creates market share. Stay lean. Move fast. And keep leveling up. Your Network is your NETWORTH!

Born and raised in San Diego, Charles Snow held a variety of jobs early in life, including: paperboy, grocery store cashier, accounting clerk, chauffeur, and sports director at a private school; each of which taught him important lessons about how organizations worked and were managed. Chuck earned his PhD in Business Administration from the University of California, Berkeley, and spent his entire academic career as a professor and researcher at Penn State. While there, Chuck taught management subjects to MBA students and executives in more than 35 countries. In this episode, we focus on the core essay that Chuck and co-editor Oystein D. Fjelstad wrote for their book, “Actor-Oriented Organizing,” which is part of Cambridge University's Companions to Management series. In conversation, Chuck discusses three key qualities essential to flattening hierarchical bureaucracies so that teams of employees can respond to emerging customer needs with greater speed and spontaneity. First, there's a great (often unmet) value in openness to change and transparency. The second is a “commons” area, a space where team members feel they're on equal, shared ground. And third is having the resources – financial, digital, and political – to ensure their work leads to outcomes that are incorporated into the company's operational bloodstream. Underlying the entire approach that Chuck advocates for is seeking to act for the common good of all, embodying the “mutual sympathy” style that made Adam Smith not the just the “Father of Modern Economics,” but also a leading promoter of empathy before the term rose to prominence today. Real Transformations: Business Change That Works from the Inside Out is co-hosted by Julie Anixter and Dan Hill, PhD, entrepreneurs with deep experience as corporate change agents, devoted to helping companies make continuous change work for everyone through clarity and connection.

Most organizations are not failing because they lack data, strategy, technology, or talent. They are failing because they cannot sense what is changing fast enough, interpret it clearly enough, and align their people quickly enough to act before the opportunity window closes.In this powerful episode of The Clarity Mandate Podcast, Dr. Vivian Atud sits down with Chris Catania, community strategist, leadership architect, author of The Community First Advantage, and creator of the ADAPT Leadership Framework, to unpack why community is no longer a “nice-to-have” leadership concept. It is becoming one of the most important operating infrastructures for organizations navigating uncertainty, AI disruption, declining trust, and rapid market change. Chris argues that the strongest organizations are not simply using better AI tools or faster decision pipelines. They are building community as a strategic sensing system — a living network of customers, employees, advocates, and leaders who help the organization detect change, build trust, respond faster, and create value that competitors cannot easily copy.This conversation challenges leaders to rethink community not as a soft engagement program, but as a measurable engine for growth, retention, innovation, customer loyalty, internal alignment, and long-term competitive advantage.Dr. Vivian and Chris explore why many leaders misunderstand community, why communities often remain dormant or siloed inside organizations, and how companies like Lego, Airbnb, Microsoft, Figma, and others have used community-led thinking to strengthen strategy, product development, customer experience, and organizational resilience.Chris also breaks down his ADAPT Framework:Authenticity, Decision-making, Agility, Purpose, and Trust — and explains why trust is the foundation leaders cannot afford to ignore in an AI-accelerated world.You will also hear why leaders must stop asking whether community matters and start asking how to embed community into the structure of their business.Why community is becoming a core competitive advantage in the AI eraWhy many organizations have a sensing and alignment problem, not merely a strategy or talent problemHow community helps organizations detect weak signals before competitors doWhy trust collapse inside organizations is often structural, not just a communication issueHow leaders can use community to counterbalance distrust created by over-automation and AI-first experiencesWhy community must be measured, funded, staffed, and connected to business outcomesThe difference between community as a program and community as infrastructureHow the ADAPT Leadership Framework helps leaders build authenticity, shared decision-making, agility, purpose, and trustWhy community cannot be “microwaved” and must be built through long-term consistencyThree diagnostic signals that reveal whether your organization has a sensing or alignment problemCommunity is not a side project.It is the connective tissue that helps organizations listen, learn, align, adapt, and build trust at scale.Trust is built structurally.It is not rebuilt by messaging alone. It grows through repeated, meaningful, transparent interactions between leaders, employees, customers, and communities.AI makes community more important, not less.As organizations automate more, people will increasingly seek human trust, belonging, authenticity, and connection.The question is no longer “Is community valuable?”The real leadership question is: How do we build community into our operating model, customer experience, employee experience, and growth strategy?Chris Catania is a community strategist, leadership architect, author of The Community First Advantage, and creator of the ADAPT Leadership Framework. He helps leaders and organizations build community-led strategies that strengthen trust, alignment, sensing, adaptation, and long-term growth.

What if the biggest risk of AI in marketing isn't about job replacement, but about creating more fragmented, siloed work?Agility requires more than just adopting new tools; it demands a fundamental rethinking of how teams collaborate and orchestrate work. When a technology like AI promises to accelerate individual tasks, true agility means ensuring that acceleration translates into collective momentum, not organizational friction.Today, we're going to talk about moving beyond the hype of AI experimentation and into the reality of its operational impact on marketing teams. We'll explore what happens when AI graduates from being a personal productivity tool to becoming an integrated part of a team's workflow, and how that shift changes everything from campaign execution to the very structure of marketing itself.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Prachi Gore, CMO at Asana.

Twenty-five years ago, the goal was to build a website as a digital "single source of truth." In an era of AI agents and hyper-personalized realities, is the very concept of a single, universal brand "truth" now an obstacle to creating a truly relevant customer experience?Agility requires not just adopting new channels and technologies, but fundamentally rethinking the role of content and data in a constantly shifting landscape. It's the ability to move from managing a static digital property to orchestrating a fluid, dynamic relationship with your audience.Today, we're going to talk about the 25-year evolution of digital experience, from the early days of enterprise content management to today's complex ecosystem of AI-driven, composable platforms. We'll explore how seismic shifts—from the introduction of the iPhone to the rise of agentic AI—have not just changed the tools we use, but have fundamentally redefined the relationship between brands and their customers.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Michelle Boockoff-Bajdek, CMO at Sitecore, a company that is turning 25 this year and has managed to maintain its leadership in the space through many changes and a few curveballs.

What's the hidden tax your organization pays every time a creative asset moves from a design tool to a marketing platform, and how can you shorten the time to gain important insights about how your campaigns perform?Agility requires more than just speed.

In an era of relentless pressure for quarterly growth, is it even possible for a large brand to stay true to its core mission, or is compromising a brand's values just an inevitable part of achieving scale?Agility requires more than just reacting quickly to market changes. It requires a resilient, long-term mission that acts as a north star, ensuring that every pivot and experiment builds enduring value, not just short-term gains.Today, we're going to talk about the tension that every marketing leader feels: the conflict between the relentless demand for measurable, short-term results and the need to build a brand with a durable, long-term mission. We'll explore how the very systems designed to measure success can sometimes corrupt a company's purpose, and how a new definition of value can create a strategic advantage that outlasts fleeting market trends.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Eric Ries, Author of The Lean Startup, and the new book, Incorruptible.

On 22 April 2026, Coca-Cola unveiled Cole Palmer as its newest football brand ambassador, fronting Premier League and World Cup activations. A month later, Tuchel left him out of the England squad. We use the Palmer story as a way into a wider conversation with Ricardo Fort — former global head of sport at Coca-Cola, now advisor to brands betting billions on the World Cup — about how personal endorsement deals really work in 2026.The anatomy of an endorsement deal. Ricardo breaks down the numbers: $3-8m per year for a top player, rarely a one-year deal, so you're looking at $10m minimum before activation. Add a global campaign on top and you're at $50-60m of media spend that depends on one player turning up.Where the leverage sits. Spoiler: not with the brand. By the time the contract gets signed, the creative idea has been built around the player, the agency is in love with the film, and the agent knows it. Ricardo on why the awkward "what if you don't make the squad?" conversation rarely happens — and why contracts that should include triggers for injury, non-selection, and tournament performance often don't.The slow-moving machine. A good World Cup campaign kicks off weeks after the previous one ends. By the time the squad is announced, 90% of the posts, the point-of-sale, the films and the photography are already in the can. Agility in this market is a myth.The Formula 1 jumpsuit problem. When Vinicius Jr. is fronting campaigns for Visa, Marriott Bonvoy, Rexona, LEGO, Nike, Pepsi and Havaianas, who actually owns him? Ricardo on why most brands have no idea how many other sponsors have signed the same face, and why differentiation has become the real game.Cultural relevance, examined. The phrase everyone in sports marketing reaches for. Ricardo on why it works for Adidas and Nike, why it's largely delusional for everyone else, and why most brands are still asking players to post twice on Instagram and calling it strategy.Also covered. FIFA as a bulletproof brand. Why the ticketing land-grab doesn't damage it. Hospitality as a business. The 3am problems that keep sponsorship directors awake during a tournament — lost VIP guests, missing teenagers, last-minute Croatian billionaires arriving by private jet. And the medal-ceremony speech Ricardo describes as the lowest point of his career.Unofficial Partner is the leading podcast for the business of sport.

I was on a morning walk when an old memory stopped me in my tracks, and it turned into this episode. The way you get grounded before a big move matters as much as the move itself, and doing it well doesn't have to take as long as you think.

Jeff Cavaliere, MSPT, CSCS, is a physical therapist and certified strength and conditioning specialist and one of the world's leading public educators on resistance training to build muscle size and strength, avoiding and overcoming injuries, and improving your posture and movement patterns (biomechanics). We discuss often-overlooked muscles and exercises that support decades of pain-free training and long-term progress. Jeff explains the best and most efficient ways to strengthen glutes, rotator cuff, neck, and foot muscles and connective tissues, and how to resolve back, hip, and other pain. We also cover the essentials of cardio, fat loss, and nutrition and how to make excellent and ongoing progress despite real-life training constraints. This episode is crucial for men and women as young as their teens, 20s, and 30s, all the way up to their 70s, 80s (and beyond) to be strong, mobile, and pain-free.

We'll explore: Why the employee experience isn't just an HR initiative but a direct driver of customer outcomes How designing systems around the way people actually think—not just how we're organized on a chart—is critical.

With the half-life of professional skills shrinking every year, is the traditional model of corporate learning and development fundamentally broken, and what role should employers play in the new era of continuous education?Agility requires a workforce that can adapt and acquire new skills as quickly as the market changes. This means the old models of education and professional development must be re-engineered for a world that demands continuous learning integrated with professional life.Today, we're going to talk about the evolution of higher education, specifically how online programs are being redesigned from the ground up to meet the complex needs of working adults. We'll explore how concepts we often discuss in customer experience—like personalization and flexibility—are being applied to learning to help professionals advance their careers without putting the rest of their lives on hold.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Ruth Veloria, Chief Strategy and Customer Officer at University of Phoenix.

Your step count goal might be off — and wonderfully, the fix is easier than you'd expect! In Part 2 of this conversation with gait specialist and author Dr. Courtney Conley, we get into the specific step and pace milestones that research actually supports — including the number linked to a 25% reduction in dementia risk that might surprise you. We also get into why a post-meal walk changes your metabolism, the difference between steps that count as intentional movement and the ones that don't, and why the reminders "walk taller" and "walk softer" may be the most useful gait coaching you'll ever receive. And then there's the calf — the muscle sometimes called the second heart, the one almost no one is training, and the one that quietly determines how we age. If you've ever wondered what your daily walking practice is actually doing for you — and what it could be doing — the answer lies in WALK, the book our conversation today revolves around.

As you race to adopt AI-powered shopping experiences, are you creating a new data black box that will make your customer journey less understood, not more?Agility requires not just the speed to adopt new channels like generative AI, but the foresight to ensure these new touchpoints don't become blind spots in your customer journey. It demands that our data strategy evolves as quickly as our customer-facing technology.Today, we're going to talk about the hidden challenge of AI-driven commerce. As major brands roll out compelling shopping experiences on platforms like Google's Gemini, they risk creating a new data black box. When customer interactions happen inside these AI environments, the insights from those conversations can become disconnected from the overall customer journey, making it difficult to measure impact and act on what you've learned.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Zack Wenthe, Director of Product Marketing & Customer Data Evangelist at Tealium.

As you race to adopt AI-powered shopping experiences, are you creating a new data black box that will make your customer journey less understood, not more? Agility requires not just the speed to adopt new channels like generative AI, but the foresight to ensure these new touchpoints don't become blind spots in your customer journey. It demands that our data strategy evolves as quickly as our customer-facing technology. Today, we're going to talk about the hidden challenge of AI-driven commerce. As major brands roll out compelling shopping experiences on platforms like Google's Gemini, they risk creating a new data black box. When customer interactions happen inside these AI environments, the insights from those conversations can become disconnected from the overall customer journey, making it difficult to measure impact and act on what you've learned. To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Zack Wenthe, Director of Product Marketing & Customer Data Evangelist at Tealium. Zack, welcome to the show!

When you look at your five-year strategic plan, how much of it is dedicated to defending your current market share versus actively making it obsolete?Agility requires more than just reacting quickly to market shifts; it demands the foresight and structure to initiate those shifts yourself.This episode is brought to by CRMC.

What's the bigger blind spot for most brands' digital experience: knowing that a customer is struggling, or understanding why and being able to help them in that exact moment? Agility requires not just identifying customer friction quickly, but having the tools to resolve it in the moment. It's about shortening the gap between insight and action to create better experiences, faster.Today, we're going to talk about a strategic evolution in digital experience management: moving beyond passively observing user behavior to actively intervening and guiding users toward success, directly within the product. We'll explore how this shift is being accelerated by strategic acquisitions and how it empowers product, marketing, and CX teams to solve problems in real time.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Jason Wolf, President at Fullstory.

In an era dominated by high-definition home entertainment and endless digital distractions, what does it take to convince a fan that a live, in-person experience is not just worth their time and money, but is something they can't afford to miss?Agility requires not just having a plan, but building a system to listen and respond to your audience in real time. It's about turning feedback from a retrospective report into an in-the-moment action plan.Following the recent Qualtrics X4 Summit in Seattle, we're going to talk about what it takes to engineer a world-class fan experience. We'll explore how a legacy brand moves beyond the traditional event model to create personalized, memorable moments, and how they use real-time data not just to measure satisfaction, but to proactively shape the fan journey from the moment someone buys a ticket to long after they've left the course.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Zach Carlson, Director of Fan Engagement at PGA TOUR.

In the race for B2B growth, we often prioritize speed over everything else. But what's the real cost when your brand starts to look like a collection of spare parts cobbled together by different teams? Agility requires a strong, foundational framework to enable speed without sacrificing coherence. It's about empowering teams to move quickly and independently, while still ensuring every customer touchpoint feels like it comes from one unified brand. Today, we're going to talk about why brand and design consistency is often the first casualty of high-growth B2B environments, and paradoxically, one of the most critical assets to protect. We'll explore how that fragmentation happens, from different teams launching products to rapid hiring, and discuss why building a consistent brand isn't just a "nice-to-have"—it's a direct line to building trust and long-term value with your customers.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Jenny Sagström, CEO at Sköna. About Jenny Sagström Jenny is cofounder and CEO of Sköna, a B2B creative agency that's been building brave brands for innovative technology companies since 2004. Jenny entered the agency world in 1998 with Kraftverket in her native Stockholm, Sweden, shortly after graduating with a BA in Economics and International Relations from the University of Reading. In 2000, she moved to the San Francisco Bay Area to work at Corsi & Partners, where she was responsible for a multitude of clients, including the Oakland Raiders. Since founding Sköna, Jenny has helped lead it from a two-person shop to a flourishing global business, where she currently oversees strategy, account management, and global expansion. An occasional public speaker, article writer, and podcaster, she spends her spare time skiing, tinkering with (and even completing!)

What if your most visible, most exciting product wasn't your real product at all, but was actually a Trojan horse for building a much deeper, stickier customer relationship? Agility requires more than just a willingness to change; it demands a deep understanding of what truly motivates your customer, allowing you to evolve your model in service of their emotional outcomes, not just their transactional needs.

What if your most visible, most exciting product wasn't your real product at all, but was actually a Trojan horse for building a much deeper, stickier customer relationship?Agility requires more than just a willingness to change; it demands a deep understanding of what truly motivates your customer, allowing you to evolve your model in service of their emotional outcomes, not just their transactional needs.Today, we're going to talk about how a brand can embody the very principle it sells, turning a core service into a flywheel for customer retention, emotional engagement, and scalable business growth.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Mark Van Wye, CEO at Zoom Room.

What if the key to customer loyalty isn't about creating memorable, delightful moments, but about being utterly forgettable in the best possible way? Agility requires more than just rapid campaign execution; it demands a deep-seated ability to re-evaluate and re-engineer core processes in response to shifting customer expectations.Today, we're going to talk about the powerful, and perhaps counterintuitive, idea that the greatest predictor of customer loyalty isn't satisfaction or delight, but simply how easy you are to do business with. We'll explore why reducing customer effort is a critical competitive advantage and how enterprise brands can identify and eliminate the points of friction that drive customers away.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, David Avrin, CX Keynote Speaker and Author at Ridiculously Easy International, and keynote speaker at CRMC, taking place June 1-3 in Frisco Texas.

What's the real cost of only having the bandwidth to focus on your top-performing products?Agility requires systems and processes that not only respond to change but also proactively manage complexity across an entire portfolio. It's about creating the capacity to act on every opportunity, not just the most obvious ones.Today, we're going to talk about a critical breaking point for large consumer brands: the operational limits of ecommerce execution. When you're managing thousands of products across countless digital shelves, manual processes don't just slow you down—they force you to leave opportunity on the table. We'll explore how automation and AI are moving teams from being reactive firefighters on their top SKUs to strategic drivers of growth across their entire catalog.To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome, Tambi Younes, Vice President of E-commerce at Newell.
