Evolving Leadership in a Tech-Driven Region In this episode, Michael chats with Mohamed—an Egyptian leader based in Saudi Arabia with a wealth of experience across the Middle East and Europe. The conversation explores the region's tech-fueled transformation and how it's reshaping business and leadership. With a young, dynamic population and a high-growth environment, the demand for leadership coaching is on the rise. Mohamed shared that leaders are realizing that information alone doesn't drive transformation—coaching does. Michael added that resilient leadership thrives in spaces where people feel empowered to adapt and grow, especially in today's fast-changing world. Coaching as a Catalyst for Leadership Growth Michael and Mohamed dive into why coaching is no longer optional—it's essential. Michael emphasized the power of being coachable and how reaching out to mentors can elevate a leader's impact. Mohamed echoed this, noting that one of the biggest hurdles in leadership development is working with individuals unwilling to learn. Together, they highlighted how coaching unlocks personal clarity and drives sustainable leadership growth—though not everyone is ready to embrace the process. From Fear to the Front of the Room: A Nurse's Speaking Breakthrough Michael shared an inspiring story of a nurse educator he once hired who struggled with public speaking. With encouragement and support, she stepped out of her comfort zone, pursued speaking opportunities, and eventually landed a leadership role in the healthcare system. The takeaway? When we identify and support the unique passions of our team, we unlock potential that transforms careers—and organizations. The Human Side of AI in Leadership AI may be changing how we work, but as Michael and Mohamed discussed, it can't replace the human elements of leadership—empathy, coaching, and connection. Mohamed shared thoughtful insights on the evolving role of AI in the workplace and the need for leaders to remain adaptable. Michael noted that while AI can supercharge productivity and creativity, the true essence of leadership will always be rooted in relationships.

The real threat isn't the tech itself, but how disconnected we become from the human experience. Adaptability is no longer optional — it's the defining trait of future-ready organizations. The most successful leaders will blend curiosity, empathy, and clarity in times of disruption. Automation should elevate humanity, not erase it — that starts with culture, not code.

In the latest episode of the Nomad Futurist podcast, co-hosts Nabeel Mahmood and Phillip Koblence bridge three time zones to sit down with Dr. Atif Ansar, Co-Founder and Executive Chairman of Foresight, for a fascinating exploration of the real reasons ambitious infrastructure projects thrive — or fail. At the core of this conversation is Atif's powerful thesis: the biggest challenges in large-scale development aren't technical; they're human. “A lot of my work with colleagues is based around human biases — both psychological and political biases — that go into estimation and execution of these projects.” Moving beyond spreadsheets and blueprints, Atif highlights how hidden forces like optimism bias, cultural dynamics, and political agendas often shape billion-dollar decisions more than facts on paper. Listeners follow Atif's journey from academia to entrepreneurship, sparked by a candid conversation over coffee that led to the founding of Foresight: “In 2018, one of my executive education students... said ‘Look, I think there's a business idea here.' We [grabbed] coffee, then drinks... and Foresight was born.” Drawing on global comparisons, including China and his teams' work in Israel, Atif argues that national motivation and collective purpose often trump money or even technology when it comes to getting projects done: “What people in China have is deep purpose around building their own nation, and that belief propels tremendous action... My team is in Israel [and has a] tremendous desire to propel faster delivery because people are motivated, intentional, and purposeful to get things done.” This episode challenges conventional thinking, positioning infrastructure not as a technical problem to solve, but as a test of collective intent, societal values, and human behavior. With wisdom, humility, and clarity, Atif reminds us why curiosity, continued learning, and a willingness to face hard truths are essential traits for anyone shaping our physical and digital world: “Stretch your mind.” Listen now and connect with Dr. Atif Ansar on LinkedIn.

Too often, educational change is approached with a top-down, impersonal strategy—especially in virtual settings. Leaders are handed new tools, frameworks, and mandates but given little space for reflection, values alignment, or the flexibility needed to make change stick. The result? Burnout, survival mode, and disjointed systems that don't serve students or educators.In this episode, Dr. Tovah Sheldon—school design strategist at Michigan Virtual and leader of the Leadership Coaching for Innovation initiative—unpacks how true transformation begins with the adults in the system. With warmth, insight, and a deep coaching mindset, she guides us through what it really means to center leadership development around the human experience. From redefining change through “rugged flexibility” and allostasis, to bridging the gap between personal and organizational values, Dr. Sheldon makes the case for slower, deeper, more reflective innovation. She shares stories of golden moments, challenges us to pluralize transformation, and gives us a clear pathway toward leading with clarity, purpose, and empathy.If you're leading innovation—especially in virtual or hybrid environments—listen in for insight on:Why “rigid” systems fail in dynamic environments, and how to lead with adaptive stability.How to help leaders and teams surface their core values and use them to drive sustainable change.The habits and actions that define innovators—and how they play out differently in virtual spaces.Why going deep before wide is essential for lasting, scalable impact.How “small-i” innovations build momentum toward big transformation.Episode Links:Leadership Coaching for Innovation at Michigan VirtualBrad Stulberg on Rugged Flexibility and AllostasisHenry Ford Innovation Hub – Phil Grumm's WorkAdditional People and Concepts to Link:Brad Stulberg Referenced for the concepts of allostasis and rugged flexibility.

In this special episode, Gresham emphasizes the importance of staying connected to the human side of business, especially in roles like consulting or coaching, where the focus can often become overly process-driven.    He shares personal context about managing the demands of work, life, and fatherhood, and uses this as a lens to empathize with the emotional and mental challenges that candidates may also be facing.    Gresham recounts a recent experience with a highly engaged candidate who became unresponsive, only to later reveal he was dealing with significant personal issues.    He also reflects on the broader increase in emotional and mental stress he senses in people today and encourages fellow consultants to create safe, empathetic spaces for their clients.   Blue Star Franchise: http://bluestarfranchise.com Browse the Franchise Inventory: https://bluestarfranchise.com/franchise Is franchising right for you?

HR isn't just about policies, metrics, or compliance, it's about people. When that gets lost, the whole system starts to crack.In this episode, I talk with Traci Chernoff, host of Bringing the Human Back to Human Resources podcast and Director of Employee Engagement at Legion Technologies.

We're joined by John Fallon, former CEO of Pearson PLC, who led its transformation from a 175-year-old publisher to a global digital learning company. Now an author and academic, John shares insights from his new book, “Resurgent,” on how established companies can thrive amidst disruption by leaning into their core strengths while learning to be agile. He argues that a strong, unifying sense of purpose is the most critical factor in navigating the immense challenges of change.John asserts that the “transformation” aspect of digital change is far harder than the “digital” part itself. He describes the core leadership challenge as bridging the gap between exponential technological progress and the linear way humans adapt. Success requires making change tangible and near-term, and he reframes middle managers not as a “permafrost” layer blocking change, but as the organization's essential “shock absorbers” who translate strategy and manage the associated anxiety.Looking ahead, John provides practical advice, from using AI as a tool to create a powerful “first draft” that human creativity can then elevate, to having the patience required for a journey that often takes over a decade. He explains that leaders must protect small, innovative initiatives with non-financial KPIs and foster a culture of continuous change, recognizing that in the modern era, you are either busy being born or busy dying.→ John's new book "Resurgent: How Established Organizations Can Fight Back and Thrive in an Age of Digital Transformation"

Too often, distance learning gets dismissed as fragmented or disjointed, seen as a patchwork of tech tools rather than a cohesive educational system. Teachers feel pulled in too many directions, and programs struggle to sustain impact beyond the novelty of going virtual.In this episode, Dr. Chris Harrington - leader of the EmpowerEd Research Institute, AccredVEd, and Digital Learning Works - shares how real transformation happens when virtual education is approached as a system. From curriculum to leadership to parent engagement, Chris lays out what it means to create a student-centered, coherent virtual learning ecosystem. He introduces specialized accreditation processes, discusses how to build systems around people - not tech - and shares inspiring stories from the field, including how one virtual program helped a struggling student graduate against the odds.If you're building - or rebuilding - a distance learning program, listen in for insights on:Why cohesion is the key to long-term success in virtual education.How to lead systems change with clarity, equity, and community buy-in.The power of specialized accreditation to elevate—not just evaluate—program quality.What it really means to put relationships at the center of digital learning.Episode Links:Digital Learning WORKSEmpowerEd Research InstituteAccredVEdHost Links:Discover more virtual learning opportunities and resources at CILC.org with Tami Moehring and Allyson Mitchell.Seth Fleischauer's Banyan Global Learning provides meaningful global learning experiences that prepare students across the globe for success in an interconnected world.

You get a conversation like this one with Abadesi Osunsade. We touched on everything from equitable design and storytelling to generative AI and ethics. This episode isn't about answers — it's about questions that matter. And it reminded me why I started this show in the first place. ⸻ Article ⸻ Some conversations remind you why you hit “record” in the first place. This one with Abadesi Osunsade — founder of Hustle Crew, podcast host of Techish, and longtime tech leader — was exactly that kind of moment. We were supposed to connect in person at Infosecurity Europe in London, but the chaos of the event kept us from it. I'm glad it worked out this way instead, because what came out of our remote chat was raw, layered, and deeply human. Abadesi and I explored a lot in just over 30 minutes: her journey through big tech and startups, the origins of Hustle Crew, and how inclusion and equity aren't just HR buzzwords — they're the foundation of better design. Better products. Better culture. We talked about the usual “why diversity matters” angle — but went beyond it. She shared viral real-world examples of flawed design (like facial recognition or hand dryers that don't register dark skin) and challenged the myth that inclusive design is more expensive. Spoiler: it's more expensive not to do it right the first time. Then we jumped into AI — not just how it's being built, but who is building it. And what it means when those creators don't reflect the world they're supposedly designing for. We talked about generative AI, ethics, simulation, capitalism, utopia, dystopia — you know, the usual light stuff. What stood out most, though, was her reminder that this work — inclusion, education, change — isn't about shame or guilt. It's about possibility. Not everyone sees the world the same way, so you meet them where they are, with stories, with data, with empathy. And maybe, just maybe, you shift their perspective. This podcast was never meant to be just about tech. It's about how tech shapes society — and how society, in turn, must shape tech. Abadesi brought that full circle. Take a listen. Think with us. Then go build something better. ⸻ Keywords ⸻ Society and Technology, AI ethics, generative AI, inclusive design, tech innovation, product development, digital transformation, tech, technology, Diversity & Inclusion, equity in tech, inclusive leadership, unconscious bias, diverse teams, representation matters, belonging at workEnjoy.

Why does security awareness training so often fail? In this episode of Unspoken Security, host AJ Nash welcomes Living Security CEO Ashley M. Rose to discuss this common issue. They explore how compliance-driven, "check-the-box" training creates a false sense of security. This old model relies on vanity metrics and rituals instead of reducing actual human risk.Ashley presents a better way forward through human risk management. This modern strategy moves beyond simple phishing tests and integrates data from your existing security tools. It provides a full view of employee behavior to identify and address risks proactively. The goal is to make security training engaging and effective, not just another task to ignore.The conversation also covers the nuanced relationship between human risk management and insider threat programs. AJ and Ashley discuss how to empower employees and transform them from a potential liability into an organization's greatest security asset, creating a stronger, more resilient workforce.Send us a textSupport the show

Tony reveals how these early influences contributed to the development of Seekings as a soldier and leader.Leadership in Action:As Seekings rises through the ranks of the SAS, Tony highlights his unique leadership style—one that combined bravery, decisiveness, and a deep sense of camaraderie.

People used to think fraud was something that happened in the shadows, rare, distant, and mostly affecting big companies. But after talking to PJ Rohall, it's clear that fraud is evolving fast, and it's showing up in places most of us don't even think to look. In this episode, I sit down with PJ Rohall, Head of Fraud Strategy and Education at SEON and co-founder of About Fraud. PJ's work is all about staying ahead of scammers and helping businesses and individuals understand how fraud actually works. From synthetic identities and AI-powered scams to account takeovers and refund fraud, he breaks it all down in a way that's both eye-opening and surprisingly accessible. We talk about how fraudsters think, what makes people vulnerable, and why collaboration is one of the best defenses we have. PJ shares practical tips, real-world examples, and some of the patterns he's seeing that everyone should be aware of. Whether you run a business or just want to better protect yourself online, this conversation might change the way you think about trust, technology, and the digital world we live in. Show Notes: [00:52] PJ Rohal is a co-founder of About Fraud and Fraud Fight Club, which is our in conference, in-person experience. He started that back in 2017, but his fraud prevention journey started back in 2011. [02:45] He began studying finance and business. He had some mental health issues and was open to trying something different when he saw a job for a fraud analyst. [06:22] His experience transferred really well into the entrepreneurial journey. [11:13] It's in the best interest of everyone to collaborate and share tips and tricks when trying to prevent fraud. [13:05] Everybody is open or vulnerable to being a victim of a scam. There shouldn't be a stigma around it. [14:51] It's powerful to see even tech savvy people being victims of scams. [17:20] How a contextually relevant scam could actually get you. [21:16] It's PJ's dream to get outside of his bubble and help educate the community the best he can. [23:43] Two-factor authentication codes have changed, because they give warnings and instructions for the consumer now. [28:45] People with platforms could get the word out about the risk of scams. [34:30] Getting fighting scams to the front and center is a challenge. [36:57] Handling calls from people who've lost large amounts of money in a scam. Having a psychologist or people who understand human behavior would really help with this journey. [40:39] Banks and financial institutions are starting to think differently about handling these issues. [41:05] There's also a lot of technology on the market that's designed for scams.

On this special two-part episode of the HX Podcast, I'm so excited to be joined by two of my colleagues from CMS, Mike and Reggie. We dive deep into the human experience of artificial intelligence, starting not with the technology itself, but with the people who use it. Mike and Reggie share their personal histories and what drives them, from a passion for service to the constant search for a better work-life balance. We explore how so many of us have been taught that "hustle equals worth," and how AI, when used wisely, presents an opportunity to reclaim our time for more meaningful human interactions. My guests offer fantastic, practical advice for anyone feeling overwhelmed and wondering where to even begin with AI. We then tackle the big questions head-on, discussing the common fears around AI replacing jobs and the complex topic of AI consciousness, ultimately exploring what it truly means to be human in an age of rapidly advancing technology.

As Brad Marchand skated with the Stanley Cup as a member of the Florida Panthers, a former player with some very similar characteristics to Marchand is in the role of trying to move the Anaheim Ducks from outsider to contender.Pat Verbeek enjoyed a 20-year playing career after being drafted by the New Jersey Devils in 1982. He's scored 500 goals, won a Stanley Cup and, as Neil points out, displays the same work ethic as a GM as he did as player. That drive helped the Devils to their first playoff berth in 1988. Now, his immediate task is to build the Ducks into a playoff team, something missing in Anaheim since 2018.X: https://twitter.com/NHLWraparoundNeil Smith: https://twitter.com/NYCNeilVic Morren: https://www.linkedin.com/in/vic-morren-7038737/NHL Wraparound Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/nhlwraparound/#NHLWraparound #ShortShifts #NYCentric #StanleyCupdate #NeilSmith #VicMorren #NHL #HumanSideoftheStory #PatVerbeek #SteveYzerman #AnaheimDucks #DetroitRedWings #NewJerseyDevils #HartfordWhalers #NewYorkRangers #DallasStars #BrianGionta #Jean-SebastienGiguere #KenHolland #PatrickKane #KeithTkachuk #PeterBondra #PatrickMarleau #PatrickRoy #WayneGretzky #KyleDavidson #EricTulsky #KyleDubas #JoelQuenneville
