The 7 Principles of Successful Partnering in the Age of AI Subscribe to our Newsletter:https://theultimatepartner.com/ebook-subscribe/Check Out UPX:https://theultimatepartner.com/experience/ In this engaging session, Vince Menzione reflects on his extensive career transitioning from direct enterprise sales to building massive channel ecosystems, while unveiling the seven core operating principles essential for modern partnering. Highlighting tectonic industry shifts—from the PC and Cloud eras to the current AI revolution—Vince explains how traditional playbooks are becoming obsolete and why adopting a growth mindset, modeled by leaders like Satya Nadella, is critical for survival. He delves into the rising importance of hyperscaler marketplaces and co-selling, urging leaders to cultivate adaptability (AQ), emotional intelligence (EQ), and mutual trust to thrive in this rapidly changing tech landscape. https://youtu.be/5n8dqiamnmE Key Takeaways Traditional industry playbooks are outdated almost immediately due to the rapid acceleration of AI and market changes. Implementing a “growth mindset” is a foundational operating principle that can transform corporate culture and drive massive valuation increases. Executive commitment and clarity of vision are mandatory for aligning an entire organization around successful partnering. Building a strong brand story and maintaining a maniacal focus on OKRs turns strategic vision into executed results. The technology landscape has experienced massive tectonic shifts from the PC era to the Cloud, Mobile, and now AI, requiring high adaptability (AQ). Mutual trust remains the non-negotiable foundation for any successful professional relationship or partnership. If you're ready to lead through change, elevate your business, and achieve extraordinary outcomes through the power of partnership—this is your community. At Ultimate Partner® we want leaders like you to join us in the Ultimate Partner Experience – where transformation begins.

[00:00:12] Vince Menzione: We just came back from Ultimate Partner live in Bellevue, Washington, where we hosted incredible leaders for two amazing days. Come join us for this next session where we explore the tectonic shifts we’ve all been seeing. What a list. Oh my gosh. I gotta tell you, I was just going back this morning and, and looking to see first of all the number, the sheer number is incredible. [00:00:36] Vince Menzione: But look at, look at all these top executives. These are, these are like market movers. The game changers. These are people that are doing more in our world, in our ecosystem than most others. And we are very fortunate to have the representation from these organizations. From these leaders in the room, and we try to curate an event that is more than a, a sales pitch. [00:01:00] Vince Menzione: We’re, in fact, we, we’re not a sales pitch. We’re all about, you know, helping you achieve more. And we try to frame that around operating principles. So, uh, a little bit of a roadmap lately. I mean, this started out like how did we get here in like, maybe five spots along the way. But, uh, for those of you who don’t know me and my background, and I’ve had an incredible career, I’ve been very blessed. [00:01:20] Vince Menzione: I did a startup that we grew from 6 million to 125 million. Went public on the Toronto Exchange. I’m still friends with the CEO, by the way. Helped, helped him grow and exit that company. Uh, I then followed one of the leaders there to go do a turnaround with Golden Gate Capital, and we took that and that’s where I built my first channel. [00:01:37] Vince Menzione: I went from doing enterprise sales as a direct seller, direct sales leader, VP to then going to building a channel. During nine 11, uh, this company was selling rugged notebook computers. Our biggest competitor was not a US company, and I spent a lot of time on Capitol Hill. I met with several congressmen and senators at a time when people did that, and they talked to each other. [00:01:58] Vince Menzione: And, uh, I built a channel. I got its a GSA schedule, and I understood. So I understood intuitively, even from that point in my career, how to move, how to shift from direct selling to building a channel, building a business around that. We became the growth engine of the company. One of my partners was one of the largest defense contractors, general Dynamics. [00:02:19] Vince Menzione: They had the big contract if you were selling to the US Army. And I knocked down the door basically and said, you got a partner with us. And that’s how we got the relationship established. And they wound up buying us for like 10 x what Golden Gate Capital had had spun us out for. And then Microsoft recruited me. [00:02:36] Vince Menzione: And for almost 10 years I was the GM of public sector partner strategy. And so I was, I was there and we’ll talk about Satya and other things, but I was there when we started the cloud. I was there when we pivoted the business from the old model and working with OEMs and trying to, to do things a different way to the cloud and co-selling and things like that. [00:02:56] Vince Menzione: And, uh, had a great experience. And then when I left I was like, oh, I’m just gonna go work for another big tech company. I started a podcast. I had a friend who said, you should do a podcast on partnering. You know a lot about this more than you probably think you do. And almost 10 years ago, I started a podcast in a spare bedroom. [00:03:13] Vince Menzione: And you know, it, it was, it built a following and there’s a lot of work, by the way, people, a lot of people do podcasts today. It was a lot of work for those of you. I congratulate anybody doing that. Uh, I went back inside for two years because I felt like I needed to go back into a big corporate environment. [00:03:29] Vince Menzione: And then I left during COVID and I learned a lot being at a big corporation about how hard it was to partner. Like it’s still hard. I don’t know how many people in the room feel this way. I know, I know the numbers are much better and Jay will talk through the numbers, but it’s not easy and a lot of organizations don’t understand it. [00:03:47] Vince Menzione: And that’s what we talk about here and we try to help people to achieve more and how to, how to get that mindset in the right place. But anyway, so. We started, we started doing the podcast after COVID, it took off. We did an event. Uh, there’s actually four of the five people that did partner. We called it Partner Mastermind. [00:04:06] Vince Menzione: We did an event about four years ago, uh, separately. And that led to Ultimate Partner. And it’s a long, the long history in the last four years of 10 events, like it’s been an incredible blast. And I want to thank each of you for being along this, this incredible ride with us as we continue to grow and expand. [00:04:24] Vince Menzione: We’ve been doubling every year for the last four years and um, I feel very blessed to be part of this. So I did wanna spend a minute with you on this. I don’t like the drain this slide, but I do wanna identify what I believe are seven operating principles of what makes successful partnering. And you know, you might say there’s eight, you might say there are other things I think about principles as opposed to tactics. [00:04:50] Vince Menzione: Tactics are transactional. They’re temporary and a point in time, and it’s how you respond and react to a situation. Principles are things you take with you, and that’s what we hope to do at Ultimate Partner. Take those things with you and then, then apply some of the things to the tactics that we need to have. [00:05:06] Vince Menzione: And so we talk about growth mindset. Uh, you know, depending on where you stand about Microsoft, these days, when this guy came in, stock was $36 a share. Okay. It’s in the four hundreds now. It was up to over 500 not long ago. He applied a different mindset. The first three things he did, Le got a copy of Carol Dweck’s book about mindset. [00:05:28] Vince Menzione: Growth mindset versus fixed mindset. Uh, he brought in Dr. Michael Vet, who’s a leading sports psychologist, like in, in the industry, who was the Seattle Seahawks sports psychologist. Mike’s been a podcast guest of mine. I’ve been to his studio. Um, and then he, we, he, he changed, he, he brought down, he took down the walls of the way Microsoft operated because leaders fought with each other. [00:05:51] Vince Menzione: They competed with each other for resources, for monetization, for everything. And he changed the mindset. Nobody’s a perfect CEO, but if I was to say to you who I think the best CEO of the last 10 years were, I’d give it to Saja Nadella, but it’s about mindset. It’s about changing or having the right mindset and applying that growth mindset to a successful partner. [00:06:12] Vince Menzione: Executive commitment, I talked about that. Other organizational will go nameless, but if you don’t, you can have the CEO down to the selling floor. Everyone needs to speak partnering, like in order to get it right in an organization. The whole company, the resources, the investments, the alignment, all has to align around partnering. [00:06:32] Vince Menzione: Executive commitment is incredible. Tony Saan took a small MSP to a half a billion dollar exit, took them to go, uh, Google Partner of the Year, seven straight years in a row. I think they’re eight this year. Uh, but Tony’s a good friend of mine. He is also been a guest on the podcast and, uh, somebody I’ve admired and worked with. [00:06:50] Vince Menzione: This is Dr. Michael Dravet. We talk about clarity, like once you get your mindset, once you get executive commitment, you then need to determine like how, what’s the vision? How do we drive success together? You need to turn, you need to know internally how to go do that. Then you lock arms with another organization and then you apply it to that partnership. [00:07:10] Vince Menzione: So that’s incredibly critical. Then, then you gotta do everything right? Like I always kid around about my days at Microsoft, we’d have these incredible meetings with leaders. They’d come meet with us at partner conference. I would literally go back to back for several days in the room. Slide deck after slide deck. [00:07:27] Vince Menzione: We’re high fiving at the end. [00:07:29] Vince Menzione: We’re gonna go do it [00:07:31] Vince Menzione: six months later. Crickets. Nothing happens, right? This happens a lot in partnering. Unfortunately, like we, we set up the right situation. We line everybody. We’re gonna go execute, we’re gonna drive results. You have to apply maniacal, focus, OKRs, everything to everything you do. [00:07:48] Vince Menzione: You need to apply. And by the way, you’re gonna hear from a lot of leaders here that do this type of work. So this is incredibly, uh, critical to success, brand and story. Like I wanna work with Microsoft. There’s gonna be probably 40 plus Microsoft leaders in the room, some of ’em sitting here and around the room. [00:08:06] Vince Menzione: How do you do that? Right? This is Ducks Raymond S. Good friend of mine at Point. I knew at point when they were just starting out. Scott Sackett is here. He’ll be up on stage. Uh, this man was expert on brand and story. Learn from people that are successful, how to be successful yourself, if you wanna be a top partner, if you wanna grow your business, whether you’re working with Microsoft, Google, Amazon, or any of the other partners in this room. [00:08:30] Vince Menzione: You need to be very clear about your brand, articulate it well, and drive a story against that. And that’s really super critical for success. And then once we do all those things, we start driving a flywheel of success. Aaron Feiger and some of the other people in the room, Reese Barry, are gonna be talking about how they do that. [00:08:47] Vince Menzione: They will help these organizations be successful. Pick putting that stake in the ground and driving it. And then what happens is after you drive this incredible success, what does my partner do? My tech giant, the company I’ve been working with, they go change everything. The market changes, the dynamics change. [00:09:05] Vince Menzione: This thing in November of 2022 called AI Happens, Chad, GBT hits the market. How do I respond and react to that? I need to be adaptable. I need to drive an AQ strategy on top of my EQ and iq, and we’ll talk more about that. So these are the operating principles, and we lay it out as a, as a diagram. And by the way, you see mutual trust. [00:09:26] Vince Menzione: Trust has to be in every room without trust, you have no partnerships, without trust, you have no business success. Like you can get buy in business, you can get buy in life, but trust is foundational. And I was very blessed to have that like grain ingrained in me as a young boy. Uh, so that’s our, that’s our operating principles. [00:09:48] Vince Menzione: Um, I’m working on a book right now. It’s almost done though. We’re, we’re talk, we’ll talk about that more, but that’s, that’ll be in the book. Um, and then we’ve been talking about tectonic shifts and I don’t know who said it first, Jay or, or me, but I know who you said it in the studio several years ago. [00:10:04] Vince Menzione: Jay’s been in our, our Boca studio many, many times. But we’ve been talking about tectonic shifts and Oh my gosh, right? So think about, I want everybody to think about this for a second. If you’ve been around tech for a while. We’ve gone through several, like these 10 year phases, the PC era, the cloud era, the well, the cloud. [00:10:23] Vince Menzione: We had client server, pc, client server, we had cloud, we had mobile, and now we hit ai. Those eras all took a period of time, right? They didn’t happen overnight. Like there was a trend like five, six years, seven years, maybe eight years, and then COVID happened, and I believe that COVID was the acceleration point because. [00:10:44] Vince Menzione: We were all forced to do things we didn’t do before. People went out and bought PCs that didn’t have them. Kids had to learn from home. Healthcare was administered tele telehealth, we didn’t do telehealth before. We had like 5% of the population to telehealth before that, uh, our work environment changed, right? [00:11:02] Vince Menzione: We were doing Zoom calls or teams calls back when I was at Microsoft Days, but the world started doing it. Our life started to change. That’s why being in the room places like this is so important. And so that really has accelerated everything. And this, you know, all these things have been accelerating over time and these are significant shifts. [00:11:22] Vince Menzione: We have the three leaders of the three marketplace organizations coming on stage here. Uh, the three hyperscalers, because marketplace went from, we were talking about it like, this is really cool. You need to go do it. A few years ago. So Microsoft lowering the rates on it, and then everything changed and then everybody started accelerating and it became the fungible token. [00:11:43] Vince Menzione: ’cause we used to, we used to partner, we used to take spreadsheets and put ’em up against each other and try to figure out deals and fax copies of deals that came in and say, we want credit for this one. And then Marketplace became a way to create a fun non fungible token. And really drive your success. [00:11:59] Vince Menzione: And so we have all the leaders that are running marketplaces in this room, by the way. So this is gonna be like the most incredible rich conversation. Co-selling. Co-selling is a, you know, a non-starter day. You have to co-sell it. People, we used to do vendor channel, which means I had somebody selling my stuff that’s not happening anymore. [00:12:19] Vince Menzione: And Jay, we’ll talk about the seven seats at the table. But this is all, these are all the things that have been changing. And of course, ai. I think that we are sitting here and I, I, I’ll share, and I’m stressing this, like this is, you need to be in this room because you’re gonna hear from leaders about what the next steps are. [00:12:35] Vince Menzione: ’cause I think we’re all paralyzed by AI and all the changes that are going on in our world and playbooks are no longer good because they’re outdated the week after they come out. So I need to, I need to follow this in real time. I think this is super important that you do, and it’s why we exist and it’s why this time is like no other. [00:12:53] Vince Menzione: I think, you know, we said maybe a generation, maybe it’s a lifetime in terms of the shifts that we’re seeing. So I, I kind of started here and I wanted to end here, uh, just because the light doesn’t go out. That’s what it’s all about. And this is it. This is it for me, right? This is my, my last run. I’m not gonna go work for a company after this. [00:13:16] Vince Menzione: I’m not gonna go into become a consultant. And I want this truly to be like special. And I want you to all feel like you’re part, you are part of it, and however much you wanna lean in and be part of it in the future, we want to grow this in the right way. I, I feel that we have an a unique opportunity. [00:13:34] Vince Menzione: Because we’re not a vendor, we’re not selling anything. I feel like we’re a platform. We’re that we’re that lighthouse and others can come in that are experts and I feel like more and more of ’em are showing up. And you know, the PDG guys did a great job today and others in the room and people that have been friends and supporting us for for years as on that sponsor slide. [00:13:56] Vince Menzione: And so we just want to continued this journey with each of you. Um, and so I want your feedback on what we’re doing. I want, I love your support. I love your passion. I love the fact that you’re still here in the room talking with, with or being here, listening to me today. Um, this is, that lighthouse is, you can see these pictures. [00:14:15] Vince Menzione: These are all family photos. Um, we go to that lighthouse, not because it’s a lighthouse, but uh, it happens to be like a landmark in our town. And, uh, it’s kind of cool. And actually the re Joe Namath has owns the restaurant across from the lighthouse, so we, we’ve got to see him a couple of times, which is kind of cool. [00:14:34] Vince Menzione: But I, I, I, I was posting this lighthouse when I started the podcast. And I was, yeah. ’cause that’s where I live and it’s my hometown. And I think about Dakota Rings and I think about other things. But, um, this is what matters. This is what matters is helping others. And we all are gonna need each other in this world because AI is gonna change our lives. [00:15:00] Vince Menzione: And dramatically it’s, I I think this is a once in a lifetime thing. But I think having people that you trust and being in the room with others where you can learn and grow and adapt, adaptability is so important. So, um, analog is the new digital as my, my good friend Gary V now says. And I think there’s this huge opportunity around what we do as ultimate partner to help everybody reach their pinnacle to everybody. [00:15:26] Vince Menzione: Be the ultimate partner. And I want to thank you for coming. I want your, thank you for your support, friendship, love. And, uh, you’re just an incredible group. Thank you. [00:15:41] Vince Menzione: Until next time, we’ll see you in person. Hopefully at our next event.

This is the second episode of [comebacks], and the guest is Liz Tran. I'm a huge fan of her work, so I loved getting to speak with her again in this new format, where we walk through a specific comeback in someone's life and focus on the messy middle of it. In this episode, Liz talks about divorce, reinvention, dating, and what it actually takes to rebuild your life after the version you planned for falls apart. We talk about how loneliness can change you when you stop trying to outrun it, how avoidance can look productive, as well as AQ (adaptability quotient), timelines, and learning to trust that your life can expand in ways you couldn't have planned for.   SHOW NOTES: Explore more from Katie Dalebout: Katie Dalebout Substack + Let It Out Lists Katie's Instagram: @letitouttt + @katiedalebout My Zine Shop and My Creative Clinic Find Liz on the Web | Instagram | Podcast Order Liz's book, The Karma of Success If you liked this episode, try this one from the archive: Karma Success with Liz Tran, Founder of Reset NYC

Shahadat of Muslim Bin Aqil (AS)May 26th 20269th Dhul Hijjah1447The days of Ḥajj reconnect believers to the legacy of Nabi Ibrāhīm (a), whose life of sacrifice and submission became the foundation of Islamic worship and identity.Nabi Ibrāhīm (a) is mentioned 69 times in the Qur'ān, and an entire chapter is named after him, highlighting his central role in divine history.The journeys of Ibrāhīm (a) from Babylon to Syria, Palestine, Egypt, and finally Makkah reflect a lifelong struggle for tawḥīd and obedience to Allāh.Judaism, Christianity, and Islam all trace their spiritual roots back to Ibrāhīm (a), making him the father of the monotheistic faiths.Islam is described in the Qur'ān as “Millata Abīkum Ibrāhīm” — the religion and path of your father Ibrāhīm — emphasizing complete devotion to Allāh.The du‘ā of Ibrāhīm (a) and Ismā‘īl (a) while raising the Ka‘bah asked Allāh to make their descendants true Muslims, fulfilled ultimately through Prophet Muḥammad (s) and Islam.True Islam means total submission to Allāh in every aspect of life: personal, family, social, political, and financial — preferring divine guidance over personal desire.Ibrāhīm (a) demonstrated uncompromising faith by rejecting idol worship, migrating to preserve religion, leaving his family in the barren desert of Makkah, and preparing to sacrifice his son solely for Allāh's pleasure.Muslim bin ‘Aqīl stands as a living example of true īmān and Islam: unwavering belief in Allāh, Rasulullāh, and the Ahlul Bayt (a), combined with sacrifice in the path of truth.Imam Ḥusayn (a) called Muslim bin ‘Aqīl “my brother, cousin, and trusted one from my family,” showing the immense trust and status he held in the mission of Karbalā'.Thousands in Kūfa initially pledged allegiance to Imam Ḥusayn (a) through Muslim bin ‘Aqīl, but fear and political pressure from Ibn Ziyād caused the people to abandon him one by one.Muslim bin ‘Aqīl's loneliness reached its peak when hundreds who marched with him disappeared by Maghrib, leaving him completely alone after ṣalāh.In the neighborhood of Kindah, exhausted and betrayed, Muslim sought refuge at the home of Ṭaw‘ah, where he confessed: “The people deceived and abandoned me.”Even in captivity, Muslim's final concerns were fulfilling debts, receiving burial, and warning Imam Ḥusayn (a) not to come to Kūfa — showing responsibility, loyalty, and sincerity until his last breath.The tragedy of Muslim bin ‘Aqīl — denied water, martyred on the roof of Dār al-Imārah, and his body dishonored afterward — foreshadows the suffering of Imam Ḥusayn (a) and the thirst of Sakīnah (a) in Karbalā'.Donate towards our programs today: https://jaffari.org/donate/Jaffari Community Centre (JCC Live)

Exponential technologies, humanity-centric innovation, ethics in AI, passion and purpose, and the intersection of business and technology all point to one urgent question: How do we prepare the next generation to build solutions that are both economically viable and good for humanity?This is a question we explore with Pete Dulcamara - scientist, former VP of Research at Kimberly-Clark and author of High-Tech Heroes.We may be entering a new renaissance of innovation, driven by the convergence of human need, business model disruption and fast-moving technology. Global companies are rethinking how products create real human value, exponential technologies are advancing faster than institutions can adapt, and a new generation is entering the workforce with different expectations for purpose, impact and responsibility.For Dulcamara, the opportunity is not technology for technology's sake. AI, robotics, biotechnology, autonomous systems and additive manufacturing could help solve some of the world's hardest problems, but only if they are paired with ethical judgment and economic viability. That's where education has to adapt. Students must learn exponential technologies and also how to apply their skills to these humanity-centric questions.In this episode:Redefining "billionaire" and how you can become oneThe difference between consumer-centric, business-centric and humanity-centric innovationWhat we mean by “data is the new oil, AI is the new electricity, and robotics is the new steel”Moving technical education from STEM to “STEM to the power of E”EQ, AQ and the skills the next generation may need more than IQ in the age of AI3 Big Takeaways from this Episode:1. Humanity-centric innovation requires purpose and profit to work together.Pete Dulcamara defines humanity-centric innovation as solving major human problems through viable business models and exponential technologies. The point is not charity, but scalable solutions that create competitive advantage while improving people's lives.2. The next era of technology will be built on data, AI and robotics.Dulcamara compares data to the new oil, AI to the new electricity and robotics to the new steel. As these technologies converge, companies and schools will need to prepare people for a world where intelligent systems reshape products, industries and work itself.3. Technical education has to teach more than technical skill.As AI makes answers easier to access, students will need stronger curiosity, ethical judgment and adaptability. Dulcamara argues that STEM should be raised to the “power of E,” with ethics embedded into how students learn, build and apply technology.Resources in this Episode:Get Pete's book High-Tech Heroes: Why Gen Z is our Last and Best Chance to Save the PlanetTons of other books, podcasts and shows mentioned in this episode can be found on the show notes page: https://techedpodcast.com/dulcamara/We want to hear from you!

Most people are optimizing for the wrong kind of smart — and it's costing them everything when the world shifts. Liz Tran is a former venture capital executive, CEO coach, and author of AQ. She spent years inside the highest-pressure rooms in tech before walking away to build a coaching practice rooted in one conviction: the people who thrive in chaos aren't the smartest or the most emotionally intelligent — they're the most adaptable.

A German micro-school head on family, purpose and intentional education This fireside conversation is for parents, psychologists and anyone working with children's wellbeing who is questioning whether a small or micro school is a legitimate choice rather than a compromise. Christian Convence, head of a family-run micro school near Aachen in Germany, joins fellow small-school head, Gershom Aitchison, from South Africa to explain why their schools exist, what drives families toward them, and what children actually gain in a small, intentionally designed learning environment. Christian traces his school's origins from 1995, when his father resigned from closing down state schools, through a 2004 monastery purchase and steady growth to a deliberate cap of 150 students. He explains the German Abitur system, how international students from China navigate it, and why his school's flexibility to prepare students without being bound by internal grading gives struggling learners a genuine second chance. The episode directly tackles the three most common objections to small schools: poor socialisation, lack of sport, and obscure credentials. Four students, Jesse, Paola, JP and Miles, speak unscripted about being academically rebuilt, forming authentic multi-grade friendships, and learning to resolve conflict rather than avoid it. Parent Philip shares the story of his daughter who said she would rather die than attend her brother's small school, and who then loved it within a day. Teachers and education consultants add evidence from Australian research on parental involvement collapse when small schools are merged, Stellenbosch University research on class size versus intentional pedagogy, the Gates Foundation's one-and-a-half-billion-dollar small-school study, and Bloom's Two Sigma findings. Teacher Ishaan Singh introduces the IQ, EQ and AQ framework used daily at Edu Inc, arguing that emotional intelligence and adversity quotient are the real predictors of university and life success. The conversation closes with a sharp strategic question every small school must be able to answer: if your school disappeared tomorrow, what would your community lose that no large school could replace? For parents weighing a small private school, this episode provides honest voices from inside the model and a confident, evidence-rich counter-narrative to every standard objection.

Liz Tran is an executive coach, entrepreneur, and author dedicated to helping people unlock their highest potential. After building a successful career in venture capital—where her clients collectively raised over $1B and created $10B+ in enterprise value—Liz made the bold decision to leave it all behind in pursuit of more aligned work. Now the founder of Inner Genius and author of AQ: A New Kind of Intelligence for a World That's Always Changing, she teaches leaders how to thrive in uncertainty by mastering adaptability. On this episode we talk about: Liz's early lessons about money, leverage, and growing up with scarcity The transition from high-paying VC career to entrepreneurship—and the $300K mistake Why mindset, gratitude, and “energy flow” are critical to making money sustainably How Liz rebuilt her income doing work aligned with her strengths The concept of AQ (Adaptability Quotient) and why it matters more than IQ or EQ today Top 3 Takeaways Hard work alone isn't enough—alignment, leverage, and adaptability are what truly drive wealth. Your mindset around money (scarcity vs. abundance) directly impacts the opportunities you attract. In today's rapidly changing world, your ability to adapt (AQ) is more valuable than intelligence or experience alone. Notable Quotes "A dollar is not just a dollar—if you leverage it, you can make more." "I thought success meant killing myself working, but it was actually about flow." "When you believe you have nothing, you reinforce that reality—but when you believe you have everything, opportunities appear."

In this episode of FOMO Sapiens, Patrick sits down with Liz Tran, founder of Inner Genius and author of AQ: A New Kind of Intelligence for a World That's Always Changing, to explore a simple but urgent idea: in a world defined by constant disruption, IQ and EQ are no longer enough. What we need now is AQ, the Agility Quotient, which Liz defines as your capacity to handle change, disappointment, and uncertainty. Drawing on a decade of work with over 200 founders and executives, Liz breaks down the four AQ archetypes — the Astronaut, the Firefighter, the Neurosurgeon, and the Novelist — and explains what each one looks like at its best and worst. The conversation gets into how AI is leveling the IQ playing field, why the most impressive résumés can actually signal lower AQ, and how the real divide in today's world isn't political or economic — it's between the people who are undone by change and the people who know how to use it.

This week on the Ante Up Poker Podcast, we're coming to you straight from the felt at Gila River Lone Butte, and the energy is unreal. Elle and I are joined at the table by Brownie, a Lone Butte regular, as we soak in what has been an incredible trip filled with great tournaments, even better people, and a poker room that's been buzzing from start to finish. We share some of our favorite moments from the stop, talk about what's made this series so special, and why this place has quickly become a favorite for the players. We also hit the latest headlines in the poker world and hand out a round of shoutouts to members of the A-Team who've been making waves. In Call the Floor, Elliott breaks down a chaotic situation where a drunk player's chip stack collapses into the pot, forcing the floor to step in and reconstruct the action. It's messy, it's confusing, and it's exactly why procedures matter. Then it's time for Hand of the Week as Patrick and I dive into a tricky spot holding AQ suited—one of those hands that looks pretty but can get you into trouble fast. I wrap things up with Joe's One Outer, where I talk about something deeper than strategy—the danger of tying your identity to your poker results, and why separating who you are from how you're running might be the most important move you ever make.

What skill is most critical in a world defined by constant change? Leadership coach and author Liz Tran believes it's AQ, or agility quotient. In this episode of Hello Monday, host Jessi Hempel sits down with Liz to explore why traditional measures of intelligence like IQ and even EQ may matter less in today's AI-powered, rapidly evolving workplace. Instead, Liz argues that what really predicts success is our ability to adapt, navigate uncertainty, and respond to change. Liz's new book is AQ: A New Kind of Intelligence for a World That's Always Changing. Drawing from her work with executives, founders, and professionals across industries, she explains how AQ works—and why it's a skill anyone can develop. Together, Jessi and Liz unpack how strengthening your agility quotient can help you navigate career transitions, unexpected challenges at work, and a future where skills evolve faster than ever. Liz and Jessi discuss: What AQ (agility quotient) is—and why it may matter more than IQ or EQ in the modern workplace Why AI and automation are leveling traditional intelligence advantages The four AQ archetypes—Astronaut, Novelist, Firefighter, and Neurosurgeon—and how each handles change How understanding your archetype can guide career decisions, leadership style, and personal growth How to build resilience and adaptability in a world where careers span multiple industries and roles Follow Liz Tran and Jessi Hempel on LinkedIn.  We will be launching the Hello Monday book club soon.

Send a textEver feel like your week is choreographing a musical, hosting a gala, and dodging a turkey… all before lunch? We open with the light stuff—kid choreography hacks, bold 80s spring trends, and why buffed nails beat chips—then weave into the deeper heartbeat of the show: how to handle life's plot twists without losing your center. A viral turkey chase in Canada turns into a story about everyday heroism, while a fast-food classic gets a quiet glow‑up that says a lot about listening and improving.From there, we get personal about food routines and that viral 30‑30‑3 idea: 30 grams of protein at breakfast, 30 grams of fiber a day, and three servings of probiotic foods. We share easy wins that actually stick—low‑sugar Greek yogurt, protein waffles, nut butters—and talk about building a pantry that saves you when mornings go off script. Then we step into the big theme: plot twists and AQ, the agility quotient. Are you the neurosurgeon, the novelist, the firefighter, or the astronaut? We compare notes on what happens in our brains when plans change, how to stay steady for our families, and where “being great in emergencies” quietly steals time from long‑term strategy.We round it out with stories that make resilience feel human: renaming stitches as “donuts” to shrink fear, the ethics of clean versions for kid playlists, and why it's okay to send your friend the link to your romper. Movies and songs with famous twists remind us that surprise is baked into good storytelling—and into everyday life. Through it all, we keep a first‑person lens: honest, warm, and a little ridiculous, because that's how real days sound.If this made you smile, think, or breathe a little easier, follow the show, share it with a friend who loves a good pivot, and leave us a quick review so more curious listeners can find us.

This week on the Ante Up Poker Podcast, we're celebrating a milestone that belongs to every single member of the A-Team — we hit #1 in the Hobby & Leisure category! This doesn't happen without the everyday poker players who listen, share, comment, and support what we do. We've been knocking on that door for a long time and now the goal is to stay there. In Table Talk, we dive into the noticeable downturn of the L.A. Poker Classic (LAPC) and what it might signal about the Los Angeles tournament scene as a whole. Is it shifting player priorities? A buy-in recalibration? Or something bigger? We break it down. We also have more updates on the upcoming Ante Up Poker Cruise — including what you can expect onboard — and preview the Octopi Poker training special that's designed to help sharpen your edge without breaking the bankroll. In Call the Floor, Elliott gets into the nuts and bolts of what actually constitutes a bet. When do chips across the line become binding? It's a must-listen for tournament and cash players alike. Then Patrick and I roll up our sleeves for Hand of the Week, breaking down a tricky AQ spot that'll have you thinking through ranges, aggression, and decision-making streets ahead. I close things out with Joe's One Outer, talking about something we don't always practice at the table — living in the moment. It's strategy, celebration, cruise vibes, and community… exactly what the A-Team is all about. Let's keep it at #1. Click here for our Linktree.

In this episode, we explore a new dimension of intelligence for navigating our rapidly-changing world. We start with the story of Hiroo Onoda, a soldier whose unwavering commitment to a mission long after its context had vanished becomes a powerful metaphor for how rigidity can keep us stuck. We dive deep into "AQ"—Agility Quotient—with Liz Tran, founder of AQ Learning Lab and author of AQ: A New Kind of Intelligence for a World That's Always Changing.Liz breaks down why AQ matters now more than ever, as change, disappointment, and uncertainty become the hallmarks of modern life, exceeding the rates of just decades ago. We unpack the origins and limitations of IQ and EQ, and highlight how AQ is the urgent intelligence we all need to cultivate. Liz shares the four archetypes for handling change—Astronaut, Neurosurgeon, Novelist, and Firefighter—each representing different strengths and pitfalls. We discuss practical strategies for creative leaders to grow their AQ, especially those ahead of the curve who struggle to bring others with them.This episode is a must-listen for anyone committed to staying agile, relevant, and creative as the world evolves beneath our feet.Key Learnings:AQ – Agility Quotient: AQ is our capacity to handle change, disappointment, and uncertainty. It's the essential intelligence for today's world, complementing IQ and EQ.Rigidity vs. Agility: Sticking to obsolete missions or skillsets—like Hiroo Onoda—illustrates how lack of agility can prevent us from recalibrating when reality shifts. Agility is a mindset, not just a skill.Four Change Archetypes: We all respond to change as either Astronauts, Neurosurgeons, Novelists, or Firefighters, each with unique strengths and blindspots. Awareness of your archetype can help you adapt more skillfully.Durable vs. Technical Skills: Technical skills lose value quickly; it's our durable, transferrable skills—like communication, problem-solving, and reflection—that build true agility and staying power.Bringing Others Along: Especially for creative “astronauts,” practical tools like “giving turn signals” in communication and learning to value the insights of other archetypes are essential for inspiring and leading change.Get full interviews and bonus content for free!

#691: Your IQ used to be your biggest career asset. Then AI scored in the 99th percentile on the LSAT, the SAT, and the MCAT — and suddenly the cognitive skills that once set you apart became something anyone can access for free. Executive coach Liz Tran joins us to talk about what actually drives career success and earning power now. Her answer: AQ, or agility quotient — your capacity to handle change, learn new skills fast, and keep moving when your industry shifts beneath you. The personal finance implications are real. The average half-life of a technical skill is five years. In tech, it's closer to two. That means the expertise you spent years building — and the salary that came with it — can become obsolete faster than a mortgage term. Tran argues the people who protect their earning power long-term aren't necessarily the most credentialed. They're the ones who can unlearn old ways and adapt quickly. We walk through her four AQ archetypes — the neurosurgeon, the astronaut, the firefighter, and the novelist — each with a different default approach to change. Knowing your type helps you understand where you might freeze up during a career pivot, a market downturn, or a high-stakes financial decision. Tran points out that analysis paralysis, something many real estate investors and career changers know well, often comes down to archetype — and there are practical fixes. We also cover her ABCD framework — anchors, bets, classroom, and discomfort — which maps out how to stay functional and decisive during volatile periods. And we get into the six thinking hats theory, specifically how pairing black-hat (downside) thinking with green-hat (future-focused) thinking can sharpen any major financial or career decision.

This week on the Ante Up Poker Podcast, we've got a full table and plenty to talk about. On Table Talk, Elle and I welcome Tia Bacon from Gila River to the show as we take a deep dive into the upcoming Ante Up Poker Tour stop at Gila River Lone Butte. We talk about what players can expect, the excitement building around the series, and why this is shaping up to be a can't-miss event.

If you would like to sign up for Camp One Step here is the link. We also recap Sunday's prop bets — some wins, some losses, and maybe a little humility thrown in for good measure. On Call the Floor, Elliott weighs in on a tournament situation where a player didn't get their rebuy in on time. Was it a tough break or just part of the rules? You know Elliott will break it down from the tournament director's perspective. In this week's Hand of the Week, Patrick and I analyze a hand featuring AQ and dig into the decision points street by street. And I close things out with Joe's One Outer, talking about superstition in poker — because it's Friday the 13th, and whether you believe in lucky charms or not, the mental game is always real. It's strategy, stories, rulings, laughs, and a little bit of luck — just the way we like it. Click here for our Linktree.

For decades, we were sold a lie: get good grades, be smart, keep climbing—and success will magically follow. But in a world of nonstop disruption, AI, political chaos, and careers that don't come with ladders anymore, IQ and EQ alone aren't cutting it. In this episode of This Is Woman's Work, Nicole Kalil sits down with Liz Tran, executive coach, former venture capitalist, and author of AQ: A New Kind of Intelligence for a World That's Always Changing, to unpack the intelligence that actually determines who thrives when everything keeps shifting: AQ (Agility Quotient). AQ isn't about being perfect, flexible to the point of burnout, or endlessly accommodating. It's about how well you adapt to change, uncertainty, and the unknown—without losing yourself in the process. Liz breaks down the four AQ archetypes (Firefighter, Novelist, Astronaut, Neurosurgeon), how proactive vs. reactive change impacts your life and career, and why adaptability is no longer optional—it's survival. This conversation will change how you think about intelligence, leadership, confidence, and what it really takes to succeed when the rules keep changing mid-game. Bottom line: Intelligence isn't just what you know—it's how you respond when what you know stops working. Thank you to our sponsors! Sex is a skill. Beducated is where you learn it.

Liz Tran, former venture capital executive and author of AQ, examines why agility—not raw intelligence or experience—has become the defining capability for leaders operating amid persistent uncertainty. She introduces Agility Quotient (AQ) as the capacity to adapt thinking, identity, and decision-making when familiar structures no longer apply. Tran explains how traditional markers of success, from credentials to past wins, can quietly become liabilities when environments shift. She describes how the pandemic, rapid AI adoption, and labor volatility exposed a gap between competence in stable conditions and effectiveness under change. Agility, in her view, is not a personality trait but a practiced discipline. Key insights from the discussion include: Why leaders who anchor identity too tightly to past success struggle most when conditions change, and how agility begins with loosening that attachment. How burnout often reflects a loss of agency rather than excessive workload, and why articulating a future-facing personal strategy restores momentum. What recent layoff patterns reveal about how organizations are selecting for adaptability rather than tenure or historical performance. How a shift from a "know-it-all" posture to a "learn-it-all" posture improves judgment, learning speed, and organizational resilience. Why confidence is built through repeated cycles of disruption and recovery, not through mastery alone. How leaders can use AI as leverage without eroding core human capabilities such as critical thinking, synthesis, and judgment. Tran also reflects on how early beliefs shape leadership behavior long after circumstances change, and why agility requires examining those assumptions rather than optimizing around them. She argues that reinvention is not episodic but continuous, and that career durability now depends on the ability to operate without fixed reference points. This episode offers a practical framework for executives seeking relevance and steadiness in volatile environments, positioning agility quotient as a core leadership capability for the next decade.

The way app users discover, evaluate, and even build apps is starting to shift — and large language models are at the center of that change. As AI platforms evolve beyond chat and into full ecosystems, app growth teams are facing a new set of questions around discovery, distribution, and long-term strategy. In this episode, we're sharing an App Talks interview with Dan Shabtay, Co-Founder of Z2A Digital. Dan explores how the emerging app ecosystem inside ChatGPT is opening the door to a new wave of app creation — from no-code tools and solo entrepreneurs to entirely new user acquisition channels embedded directly within AI platforms. Today's topics include: Dan explains how ChatGPT is evolving into a platform with its own internal app marketplace, giving developers access to hundreds of millions of users without relying on traditional app stores. Entrepreneurs and creators can now build and publish functional apps without engineering teams, fundamentally changing who can participate in app development and how quickly new ideas can reach the market. Unlike iOS or Google Play, apps built inside LLM ecosystems immediately tap into an existing, engaged user base, reducing friction around discovery and distribution. Traditional user acquisition isn't disappearing, but it is shifting. Classic channels will coexist with new LLM-based acquisition models, including potential in-chat placements and AI-native ad formats. Beyond IQ and EQ, adaptability becomes the defining skill for app growth teams navigating rapid, AI-driven change.

Phil Hellmuth has provided more than his fair share of entertainment over the past few decades on poker live streams, and that trend continues during a cash game on PokerGO's No Gamble, No Future. In a multi way bomb pot, Hellmuth and DrDad both make the same full house on the river, and a chopped pot seems inevitable. However, is this the moment Phil Hellmuth makes a huge mistake and lays down his boat after DrDad overbets? When playing cash games or poker tournaments, you generally want to use larger bet sizes when you have a nut advantage. This means your range contains more premium hands than your opponent's. However, this approach changes in multi way pots. When betting into multiple opponents on the flop, turn, or river, it is usually best to use smaller bet sizes, as the equity in the pot is spread out and players are less likely to fold. Phil Hellmuth ‘The Poker Brat' has won more than $30,700,000 in live poker tournaments putting him in the top 100 on the all time money list. Hellmuth has 17 World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelets which is currently the most that any poker player has won! Hellmuth is very well known for his antics and outbursts at the poker table which is why he is known as ‘The Poker Brat'. Since 2006, Hellmuth has played on over 198 live streamed poker cash games and has lost more than $800,000. Daniel Schill or ‘DrDad' is an American amateur poker player from Michigan. Schill is a biomedical researcher with a Ph.D. in cell and developmental biology. He has won over $220,000 in live poker tournaments. Schill's biggest cash of $84,676 came after he finished 6th in the $600 PokerNews Deepstack Championship at the 2025 Word Series of Poker (WSOP). Since 2025, DrDad has played 1 live streamed poker cash game and won more than $18,000. No Gamble, No Future is an American poker television program that airs on PokerGO, and premiered on August 1, 2022. The poker show provides cash game focused entertainment with a variety of stakes and poker players. It has featured players such as Phil Hellmuth ‘The Poker Brat', Andrew Robl ‘good2cu', Eric Persson, Patrick Antonius ‘The Finn', Matt Berkey, Nik Airball, Rampage Poker, Wolfgang Poker, and Daniel Negreanu ‘DNegs' ‘KidPoker'. This episode from season 7 featured Phil Hellmuth, Joe Stapleton, Nick Wright & Jennifer Tilly. Preflop:Phil Hellmuth in the small blind, Jennifer Tilly in the big blind, Nick Wright from under the gun, Rips out of the lojack, Lightning from the hijack, Joe Stapleton from the cutoff, and DrDad on the button all agree to do a $100 bomb pot. Flop – Js Jd 8d:Hellmuth is first to act and checks, having flopped best with A8 of hearts, which is now two pair, jacks and eights. Tilly checks her pair of sixes and Wright decides to check his 94o that only has a backdoor straight possibility. With K7o, Rips also has a backdoor straight draw so he decides to check. Stapleton holds AQ of diamonds and has a flush draw with a backdoor straight draw of his own. Stapleton fires out for the minimum bet of $50. DrDad has the same two pair as Hellmuth but he has the inferior kicker. He chooses to raise to $300, and is met by a cold 3-bet from Hellmuth to $800. The action folds back to the popular poker commentator, Stapleton, who has been covering the European Poker Tour (EPT) for over a decade. Stapleton reluctantly folds his two overcards and ace-high flush draw. DrDad calls, and the two poker players head to the turn. Turn – 4h:Hellmuth slows down and checks the four of hearts on the turn and DrDad checks behind. River – 8s:Both players improve to the same boat, eights full of jacks on the river, and a chop pot looks likely. Hellmuth checks for the last time, and DrDad chooses to overbet for $2,500. Will Hellmuth call this off and take half the pot, or will his white magic fail him and he will incorrectly fold a full house? Stay tuned to the end of this poker video to see what happens! Jonathan Little analyzes live poker hands from TV poker shows such as Poker After Dark, Hustler Casino Live, The Lodge Poker Club & PokerGO. He also analyzes popular poker vloggers such as Rampage Poker, Brad Owen, Jaman Burton, Ashley Sleeth, Wolfgang Poker and others!

Alan Keating entertains poker fans across the globe on high stakes cash streams with his fearless, crazy, and loose style. Now, Keating is taking his shot at poker tournaments. In this poker hand from the $25,000 buy-in 2024 World Series of Poker Paradise Main Event, he tangles with poker professional Alex Kulev near the money bubble. Kulev leads out on the flop and turn with complete air before putting Keating to the test for the majority of his stack on the river. Has Alan Keating lost his mind, because with just ace-high, Keating has no real option but to fold, right? When playing in a poker tournament, and you have 50bb or less after defending out of the big blind, it is game theory optimal (GTO) to have a leading strategy on certain flops that are good for your range. For example, on a low, wet & connected flop, the big blind will often have a slight range advantage since a lot of the suited and offsuit holdings that connect well on these flops will be defended. Again, it is important to make sure you are balanced in these spots by leading not only with bluffs, but also with value hands so that your opponents cannot easily exploit you. Alan Keating is a well known high stakes cash game poker player often playing in the biggest live cash games and private poker games around the world. He has over $230,000 in live tournament poker earnings. Keating has become more of a regular on the Hustler Casino Live stream. He is extremely popular amongst poker fans partly due to the fact that he wins and loses millions of dollars whilst always carrying a smile on his face! Keating has been seen associating with poker celebrities such as Dan Bilzerian. Alex Kulev ‘FutureofMe' is a professional poker player from Bulgaria. He has over $15,500,000 in live tournament poker earnings which puts him in the top 100 on the all time money list and 1st on Bulgaria's all time money list. He has 1 World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelet which came from a $50,000 buy-in event at the 2023 WSOP. Kulev won $2,087,073 for his first place finish. The 2024 World Series of Poker (WSOP) Paradise was a No-Limit Hold'em and Mixed Games festival held from December 3rd – 14th at the Atlantis Paradise Island, Bahamas. Featuring 15 bracelet events that culminated in the $25,000 Main Event. $25,000 – 2024 WSOP Paradise Main Event – Results 1st: Yinan Zhou – China – $6,000,0002nd: Marcelo Aziz Jr. – Brazil – $4,600,0003rd: Mustapha Kanit ‘lasagnaaammm' – Italy – $3,600,0004th: Liv Boeree – England – $2,800,0005th: Christopher Nguyen – Germany – $2,100,0006th: Michael Addamo ‘imluckbox' – Australia – $1,650,0007th: Justin Bonomo ‘ZeeJustin' – U.S.A. – $1,300,0008th: Vadzim Lipauka – Belarus – $1,000,0009th: George Lehmann – Germany – $750,000 Preflop:Nearing the money bubble of the 2024 World Series of Poker Paradise Main Event, Alan Keating raises to 50,000 from the cutoff with AQ of diamonds and Alex Kulev defends with 83 of hearts in the big blind. Flop – 7s 6c 4c:The wet, low, connected flop is great for Kulev's range and he knows this, as he decides to donk lead for 35,000 with a gutshot straight draw. Keating calls with just two broadway cards, no backdoor draws but is currently ahead with his ace-high. Turn – 9c:The front door flush comes in on the nine of clubs turn, causing Kulev to lead out again, this time for 155,000, having picked up an open ended straight draw. Keating calls one more time still holding the strongest hand out of the two. River – 9s:The board pairing river doesn't deter Kulev as he leads out for the last time with a big bet size of 430,000 with just eight-high. Surely Keating can't call with ace-high and risk bubbling the tournament? Stay tuned to this poker video to see what Keating decides to do.
