Welcome to episode #1049 of Thinking With Mitch Joel (formerly Six Pixels of Separation). Farid Mheir has spent four decades at the intersection of engineering, business strategy, and digital transformation. Trained as a microelectronics engineer, he helped pioneer online grocery commerce with IGA in the mid-1990s before building e-commerce platforms for major retailers across North America and Europe. Today, through his advisory firm, and as a faculty member at the McGill Executive Institute, Farid advises executives on AI strategy and organizational transformation. His new book, AI Mindsets - A Guide to Succeed in an AI-Driven World, distills decades of experience into thirty-one practical mindsets designed to help leaders move beyond AI hype and build organizations prepared for an era of intelligence abundance. In this episode, Farid explains why AI represents a shift as significant as the arrival of the internet, arguing that while the web democratized access to information, AI is making intelligence itself widely accessible. We explore what remains uniquely human in a world of increasingly capable machines, why wisdom, judgment, and experience become more valuable as intelligence becomes abundant, and how organizations must undergo a cultural, not just technological, transformation to realize AI's potential. Farid also discusses prompt engineering, answer engineering, AI agents, software development, and why the greatest opportunity lies not in replacing people but in moving them upstream toward more creative and strategic work. Throughout the conversation, he makes the case that success in the AI era will depend less on mastering new tools than on adopting new ways of thinking about work, leadership, and the future itself.

July 10, 2026: Axios warns about AI's new class divide: the haves, the have-nots, and the "no-nots" who are already being shaped by AI without realizing it. Then I get into new Indeed and Business Insider data showing that AI is moving into job titles far beyond tech, from physical therapy to legal, finance, marketing, and management. The bigger issue is not just who has access to AI. It's who knows how to use it, who is being quietly managed by it, and whether leaders use AI to make people better or slowly de-skill them.

Renaissance English History Podcast: A Show About the Tudors
In 1591, a Cambridge-educated writer named Robert Greene published a pamphlet exposing London's professional con artists. He named their roles, described their techniques, and basically wrote the world's first true crime series. The problem is that he was also personally acquainted with most of the criminals he was writing about. Today we're spending 24 hours with a Tudor cony-catcher. A cony is a rabbit. Easy prey. And the operation these people ran was so organized they had job titles, a professional hierarchy, and their own secret language. Every trick they used still works today. The rabbit just changed shape. The Tudor Planner crowdfunder is here! https://tudorfair.com/products/2027-tudor-planner-crowdfunder Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It's not just fake companies that are driving these H-1B scams. It's also businesses importing foreign workers on H-1B visas to fill the most outrageous job titles that countless Americans could fill. After the foreigners come in, many start businesses that are being subsidized by you. But the Trump administration announced that it's banning noncitizens from acquiring any SBA small business loans. Senate candidate James Talarico (D-Texas) is weirdly obsessed with trans kids. ► Watch my latest H-1B visa scam documentary: https://youtu.be/ApBnRnGFht4?si=1RZxBe3SR50B-wMV ► Watch my first documentary on how I exposed H-1B visa scams: https://youtu.be/9sfeESywMUs?si=23qLeBI8neFymdFu ► Email me at saratips@blazemedia.com if you have uncovered potential fraud in your area. ► Subscribe to my second YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/@SaraGonzalesTX?sub_confirmation=1 ► Patriot Mobile Call 972-PATRIOT today or go to https://www.patriotmobile.com/partners/sara and use promo code SARA for a FREE month of service. ► BlazeTV Head over to https://www.blazetv.com/sara and subscribe today.

There are about 90 million unique job titles in the U.S. labor market. Ninety million. If you are trying to negotiate a raise, switch companies or launch a side hustle, that number has consequences. If titles do not line up, you cannot easily compare pay, scope or seniority. You might be doing the same work as someone with a higher title and higher salary - and never see it. That problem is the focus of Part 2 of our conversation with Dr. Ben Zweig. Zweig is the CEO of Revelio Labs, a workforce data firm that analyzes millions of job postings and online profiles. He also teaches The Future of Work at NYU Stern School of Business and holds a PhD in economics from the CUNY Graduate Center. His work focuses on how jobs are structured and how they evolve. We talk about taxonomy - the systems used to categorize work. A title acts as shorthand for a bundle of tasks. Trouble starts when the shorthand breaks down. Two people with the same title may do very different work. Two people with different titles may perform nearly identical tasks. Zweig explains how large language models can group job descriptions based on actual responsibilities rather than labels. That approach could make it easier for workers to search accurately and for companies to organize teams. The conversation shifts to management. He argues that managers spend much of their time reconfiguring roles as business needs change. Technology accelerates that reconfiguration rather than replaces it. We close with stories about bank tellers and typists. Their titles remained familiar. Their tasks transformed over time.

Dana DiTomaso shares tools and methodologies for content gap analysis, from analyzing queries in Google Search Console to using advanced AI pattern recognition on real user data, all while emphasizing the importance of tying marketing efforts to real business results.

Coaching Corner: Build Range, Not Job TitlesStill clinging to job titles for validation?In this episode, Tracy Forsyth breaks down why your range is your real power — especially in a world where roles are constantly evolving.What you'll learn:
The ground keeps shifting, but your core doesn't have to. We dive into the art of evolving your identity without feeling lost, using one deceptively simple question to turn uncertainty into clarity. When we anchor to purpose and let the packaging change, we gain freedom to pivot, experiment, and still feel like ourselves. We start by dismantling the end of history illusion, that sneaky belief that who we are today is who we'll be forever. You'll hear how Maya Shankar reframed a lost violin career into cognitive science by following her values, and how Vera Wang translated the drive of elite skating into world-changing fashion. Those stories aren't fairy dust - they're blueprints. If your why is service, creation, truth, or potential, there are many hats that can honor it, even as technology and markets evolve. Walk away with a simple, repeatable practice to keep your core steady while your tools, titles, and tactics evolve with the times. If this sparked something for you, follow the show, share it with a friend or your mastermind, and leave a quick review so more people can navigate change with clarity and courage.

January 22, 2026: For years, we've talked about jobs, titles, careers, and skills as if they were stable foundations of work. They're not. In today's episode of Future Ready Today, I break down five stories that reveal a deeper truth most leaders are avoiding: the job itself is starting to fail as the core unit of work. From Meta's pullback on long-horizon roles, to Deloitte scrapping traditional job titles, to the growing skills mismatch in hiring, to lawsuits over opaque AI screening tools, and even to Citi's bottom-up AI experiments — these aren't disconnected headlines. They're signals of the same structural breakdown. AI didn't cause this. It exposed it. This episode is about why organizations keep redesigning org charts, titles, and technology — but refuse to redesign work itself. And why the companies that win next won't be the ones with the best AI tools, but the ones willing to let go of outdated assumptions about jobs, careers, and control.

Send us a textIf you feel stuck in your job search even though you are doing all the right things with your resume and LinkedIn, you are not alone. I see this pattern every day with mid-career professionals who are smart, capable, and experienced but still not getting traction in today's market.In this episode, I flip the script on how most people think about career growth and job search at mid-career. Job titles are not destinations. They are outcomes. When you build real career clarity, your value travels with you from one organization to the next, regardless of the title on the door.I walk you through a practical framework I use with my private clients to move them from scattered job searching to selective, strategic career positioning. We talk about how to define the problems you are best positioned to solve, the conditions where you do your best work, how to SHOW UP from service rather than proving, and how to clearly articulate who you help and what you help them do.You will also hear how this kind of clarity changes everything about interviews and recruiter conversations. When you stop trying to prove yourself and start SHOWing UP to contribute, your confidence increases, your message becomes sharper, and decision makers can see exactly where you fit.We also talk about the role of AI in today's job search. AI can help you optimize keywords, but it cannot replace clarity. Clarity is what carries the interview, builds trust, and helps you stand out in a crowded and noisy market.In this conversation, you will learn how to make recruiters' jobs easier by responding quickly, giving clear yes or no answers, and asking what they need next. These small shifts dramatically increase your credibility and momentum.At mid-career, the most powerful question is no longer “Am I enough?” It is “Where am I most useful?” When you answer that, your job search becomes focused, your energy increases, and your value compounds.If you are ready to reduce noise, save time, and target roles where your impact actually matters, this episode will give you the tools and language to do it.If you want help pinpointing where your value belongs next, visit johnneral.com/resources and get the Mid-Career Clarity Code for $43.

How they think. How they operate. What their archetype is. In this solo episode, Sam discusses the common pyramid of the 5 Levels of Employee Agency — breaking down each of these levels and how to find Level 5 Simplifiers when you're seeking to make a hire or placement. In this conversation, Sam gives some examples of how Loxo is facing this challenges, emphasizing how, in his personal experience, the most impactful team members are often not defined by their job titles. Instead, their success is attributed to their thinking processes, operational styles, and underlying archetypes that contribute to the team's overall performance. Screening for this is hard — but this is what sets the best recruiters apart from the pack.

In this episode, I break down how to identify your actual dream job in public health using a simple “mental algorithm” so you're not just scattering applications into the void, but moving with clarity and purpose toward a career that actually excites you. We talk honestly about the brutal November 2025 public health job market and how to think in terms of transferable skills. I walk you through how to network without being awkward or apologetic, including specific outreach emails (that you can use!) using my E.A.S.Y. framework (Establish, Ask, Simplify, Yield). Finally, I rapid-fire a huge list of public health job titles and organizations you can plug into job boards right away and invite listeners to email me for resume and job-hunt questions.
This is your leverage window. Q4 is when companies lock budgets, finalize promotions, set equity, and protect retention risk. Translation: decisions are being made about you—often without you. If you stay quiet, you're already behind. In this episode, Dr. Renee Baker joins me to dismantle the myths and give you a real plan to negotiate raises, titles, and equity without begging or breaking.We tear into the fear narrative—layoffs, headlines, “be grateful and wait your turn.” Gratitude without advocacy is servitude. Silence doesn't pay. You are the CEO of you, and if you don't speak up, you've handed away your leverage. We talk about why it's cheaper to keep you than replace you, how bonuses and timing create retention pressure, and how to use that math in your favor.Then we get tactical. Politics often beats performance, so study the breadcrumbs: who gets promoted, how, and why. Don't bring a task list to a review—bring outcomes. Learn to quantify impact beyond sales, frame results the way your firm rewards them, and ask the right questions in your 1:1s so your leaders carry the right story into the room when you're not there.We close with two heavy hitters: titles and “no.” Titles drive pay bands and access—use them. If they say no, convert it into a timeline, criteria, and checkpoints. If that's not respected, that's your signal. This is not about ego. It's about equity, mobility, and your next seat at the table.Watch the full episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/sN9-MechYpMConnect with Dr. Renee Baker: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/itsreneebaker/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/ItsReneeBaker/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/itsreneebaker Threads: https://www.threads.net/@itsreneebaker YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@DrReneeBakerAs always we ask you to comment, DM, whatever it takes to have a conversation to help you take the next step in your journey, reach out on any platform!Twitter, FaceBook, Instagram, Tiktok, LinkedinDISCLOSURE: Awards and rankings by third parties are not indicative of future performance or client investment success.

Jon's earliest memories in racing and getting his first go-kart from NASCAR legend Dale Jarrett. From karts, Jon moved into late models before making the jump to the regional NASCAR stock car series and Trucks. Jon explains he likely didn't take his racing career as seriously as he should have, and a loss of sponsors caused the team to work with veteran drivers to take over.After stepping out of the driver's seat, Jon moved into a managerial position with the family team. At the time, the family team was struggling and needed redirection. Eventually, Jon would take over as President, helping to lead the team into a new era. To this day, Wood Brothers Racing continues to be a family enterprise, celebrating over 75 years in stock car racing. Dale and Jon also discuss some current NASCAR topics, such as charter ownership, the 23XI/FRM lawsuit, the Wood Brothers' recent 100th victory, and social media presence.

What will Instructional Designers be called in the future? In this episode, I revisit a fun question from a recent webinar that got me thinking. Our field has gone by many names over the years, from training specialists and curriculum developers to multimedia designers and learning engineers.
