If a species is horrible enough, do we have the right to kill it forever? Seventy years ago, a nightmare parasite feasted on the live flesh of warm-blooded creatures in North America: the screwworm. That is, until a young scientist named Edward F. Knipling discovered a crucial screwworm weakness and hatched a sweeping project to wipe them out. Knipling's seemingly zany plan to spray screwworms out of planes all over the continent— with US taxpayer money— succeeded, becoming one of humanity's biggest environmental interventions ever.  Today, screwworms have been gone so long that none of us in North America even remember them. But now, they're coming back. And they're forcing us to ask: in an era of climate change and rapid mass extinction— should we kill off a species on purpose?  Special thanks to James P.

Biohacking expert Gary Brecka spent 22 years predicting people's deaths for life insurance companies. While analyzing millions of medical records, he discovered that many health problems stemmed from preventable nutrient deficiencies and poor oxygen management rather than genetics. Yet he was legally forbidden from warning the people behind the data. Frustrated by the system, he walked away from the industry and dedicated his life to helping people reclaim their health. In this episode, Gary shares powerful biohacking and wellness strategies to boost energy, improve brain health, and add years to your life through simple daily habits.

This conversation was originally released in February of 2025. We're replaying this episode because Cognex sits right at the intersection of AI and robotics. As the market focuses more on physical AI and automation in 2026, machine vision is becoming an increasingly important part of that story. Today we are breaking down Cognex, the leader in machine vision. Cognex builds the cameras, sensors, and software that allow factories and logistics systems to see. Their technology inspects products, detects defects, reads barcodes, and guides robots across manufacturing lines and warehouses around the world. Cognex is not your typical recurring revenue story. It is a cyclical industrial business that has grown by repeatedly finding new “S-curves” in automation. From early semiconductor inspection to modern logistics systems and AI-driven vision, the company has spent decades expanding the applications of machine vision across industries. Our guest today is Brett Larson from NZS Capital. Brett walks us through the history of machine vision, Cognex's unique culture and founder story, and the company's position inside the broader automation ecosystem. We also discuss how Cognex sells into factories, the competitive dynamics with companies like Keyence, and why new technologies like deep learning could unlock the next wave of growth.

In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton talk about a painful and confusing tension many first responders carry: losing trust (Amazon Affiliate) in leadership while still deeply believing in the mission, the work, and the people they serve. This isn't about being bitter or insubordinate. It's about the internal conflict that forms when decisions feel disconnected, values feel compromised, and loyalty becomes complicated. You still care about the job—but the system around it no longer feels safe, fair, or aligned.

In this episode of the Lead Up Podcast, host Mike Harbour shares four non-negotiables that prevent most leadership failures, arguing that most performance problems stem from management shortcuts made months or years earlier. He outlines the fundamentals: select with intent, create clarity at the edge, lead through rhythm, not rescue, and develop through truth. Mike emphasizes that hiring is a leadership act and that bad hires carry major costs, while clear, documented expectations and strong onboarding prevent misalignment and conflict. He explains that consistent leadership rhythm (especially protected one-on-ones) builds trust, engagement, and retention, and that leaders should coach before crises arise. Finally, he stresses frequent, specific, balanced feedback to build psychological safety, prevent surprises in reviews, and accelerate growth through truth delivered with care and consistency.

Most leaders think workplace problems are about strategy, performance, or communication. But what if the real issue is something deeper—something invisible shaping how people interpret everything that happens at work? In this episode of Typology, Anthony and I explore how the Enneagram reveals the hidden motivations driving behavior inside teams and leadership groups. When people begin to understand why they—and their colleagues—think, react, and communicate the way they do, everything starts to shift. We talk about what happens when organizations move beyond personality labels and start using the Enneagram as a practical tool for leadership, conflict, and culture. If you lead people, work on a team, or have ever wondered why certain workplace dynamics keep repeating themselves… this conversation might change the way you see your office forever.

n this episode of The MisFitNation Podcast, host Rich LaMonica welcomes U.S. Marine Corps Veteran Clifton Maddox, a leader whose mission of service continued long after his military career ended. Clifton served in the Marine Corps from 2003 to 2010, working with 4th GSP and 2nd Intelligence as an infantry Marine who supported Joint Task Force border missions and deployments to Iraq. Those experiences forged his understanding of discipline, leadership, unity, and responsibility. After leaving the military, Clifton transitioned into construction and real estate, building apartments and helping families find homes. But his deeper calling is about something bigger—building stronger communities and helping people come together instead of dividing apart. In this conversation, Clifton shares lessons from the battlefield, the football field, and the construction site about leadership, fatherhood, civic responsibility, and why veterans continue serving long after the uniform comes off. If you care about leadership, veteran transition, community impact, and building a better future for the next generation, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

Comment exercer son rôle de manager dans un monde du travail où l'incertitude devient permanente ?C'est le défi auquel sont confrontés de nombreux managers aujourd'hui.J'ai eu l'honneur et le plaisir de recevoir Ludovic Girodon, auteur du best-seller Dream Team et du guide illustré Un manager presque parfait. Il accompagne des managers et échange chaque semaine avec des dizaines d'entre eux ainsi qu'avec des DRH sur leurs pratiques managériales.Dans cet épisode Ludovic décrit ce qu'il observe sur le terrain.Côté managers : flou, imprévisibilité, perte de repères.Côté directions : transformations continues, réorganisations, contraintes économiques.Le défi des managers devient structurel. Face à ces mutations du travail, deux postures apparaissent : certains se figent, d'autres choisissent de ne pas subir.Ils considèrent leur équipe comme une “boîte dans la boîte” et travaillent sur ce qui est réellement à leur main. C'est là que se joue leur impact managérial et leur capacité à maintenir l'engagement des collaborateurs.Premier levier pour les managrs : écrire le mode d'emploi de son équipe.Formaliser les règles du jeu.Clarifier les comportements attendus.Expliciter ce qui est négociable ou non.Ce travail renforce la confiance et facilite le recadrage.Deuxième levier : sanctuariser du temps pour soi. Identifier dans son agenda les créneaux moins sollicités et les protéger pour prendre du recul. Ce temps permet d'assumer pleinement son métier de manager et de préserver son énergie.Nous abordons également l'écart qui se creuse entre les managers qui assument cette responsabilité et ceux qui découvrent que le rôle ne leur correspond plus dans un contexte devenu plus exigeant.Le parcours manager, l'impact managérial et le futur du travail traversent tout l'épisode.Un échange destiné aux managers, DRH et membres de comité de direction qui souhaitent structurer durablement leurs pratiques managériales.

“You and I, we’re part of this last analog generation. We had the opportunity to grow up in a time and age where our brains had to evolve against friction.” –Cornelia C. Walther About Cornelia C. Walther Cornelia C. Walther is Senior Fellow at Wharton School, a Visiting Research Fellow at Harvard University, and the Director of POZE, a global alliance for systemic change. She is author of many books, with her latest book, Artificial Intelligence for Inspired Action (AI4IA), due out shortly. She was previously a humanitarian leader working for over 20 years at the United Nations driving social change globally. Webiste: pozebeingchange LinkedIn Profile: Cornelia C. Walther University Profile: knowledge.wharton What you will learn How the ‘hybrid tipping zone’ between humans and AI shapes society’s future The dangers and consequences of ‘agency decay’ as individuals delegate critical thinking and action to AI The four accelerating phenomena influencing humanity: agency decay, AI mainstreaming, AI supremacy, and planetary deterioration Actionable frameworks, including ‘double literacy’ and the ‘A frame’, to balance human and algorithmic intelligence What defines ‘pro social AI’ and strategies to design, measure, and advocate for AI systems that benefit people and the planet The need to move beyond traditional ethics toward values-driven AI development and organizational ‘return on values’ Leadership principles for creating humane technology and building unique, purpose-led organizations in the age of AI Global contrasts in AI development (US, Europe, China, and the Global South) and emerging examples of pro social AI initiatives Episode Resources Transcript Ross Dawson: Cornelia, it is fantastic to have you on the show Cornelia Walther: Thank you for having me Ross. Ross: So your work is very wonderfully humans plus AI, in being able to look at humans and humanity and how we can amplify the best as possible. That’s one really interesting starting point is your idea of the hybrid tipping zone. Could you share with us what that is? Cornelia: Yes, happy to. I would argue that we’re currently navigating a very dangerous transition where we have four disconnected yet mutually accelerating phenomena happening. At the micro level, we have agency decay, and I’m sure we’ll talk more about that later, but individuals are gradually delegating ever more of their thinking, feeling, and doing to AI. We’re losing not only control, but also the appetite and ability to take on all of these aspects, which are part of being ourselves. At the meso level, we have AI mainstreaming, where institutions—public, private, academic—are rushing to jump on the AI train, even though there are no medium or long-term evidences about how the consequences will play out. Then at the macro level, we have the race towards AI supremacy, which, if we’re honest, is not just something that the tech giants are engaged in, but also governments, because this is not just about money, it’s also about power and geopolitical rivalry. And finally, at the meta level, we have the deterioration of the planet, with seven out of nine boundaries now crossed, some with partially irreversible damages. Now, you have these four phenomena happening in parallel, simultaneously, and mutually accelerating each other. So the time to do something—and I would argue that the human level is the one where we have the most leeway, at least for now, to act—is now. You and I, we’re part of this last analog generation. We had the opportunity to grow up in a time and age where our brains had to evolve against friction. I don’t know about you, but I didn’t have a cell phone when I was a child, so I still remember my grandmother’s phone number from when I was five years old. Today, I barely remember my own. Same thing with Google Maps—when was the last time you went to a city and explored with a paper map? Now, these are isolated functions in the brain, but with ChatGPT, there’s this general offloading opportunity, which is very convenient. But being human, I would argue, it’s a very dangerous luxury to have. Ross: I just want to dig down quite a lot in there, but I want to come back to this. So, just that phrase—the hybrid tipping zone. The hybrid is the humans plus AI, so humans and AI are essentially, whatever words we use, now working in tandem. The tipping zone suggests that it could tip in more than one way. So I suppose the issue then is, what are those futures? Which way could it tip, and what are the things we can do to push it in one way or another—obviously towards the more desirable outcome? Cornelia: Thank you. I think you’re pointing towards a very important aspect, which is that tipping points can be positive or negative, but the essential thing is that we can do something to influence which way it goes. Right now, we consider AI like this big phenomenon that is happening to us. It is not—it is happening with, amongst, and because of us. I think that is the big change that needs to happen in our minds, which is that AI is neutral at the end of the day. It’s a means to an end, not an end in itself. We have an opportunity to shift from the old saying—which I think still holds true—garbage in, garbage out, towards values in, values out. But for that, we need to start offline and think: what are the values that we stand for? What is the world that we want to live in and leave behind? As you know, I’m a big defender of pro social AI, which refers to AI systems that are deliberately tailored, trained, tested, and targeted to bring out the best in and for people and planet. Ross: So again, lots of angles to dig into, but I just want to come back to that agency decay. I created a framework around the cognitive impact of AI, going from, at the bottom, cognitive corruption and cognitive erosion, through to neutral aspects, to the potential for cognitive augmentation. There are some individuals, of course, who are getting their thinking corrupted or eroded, as you’ve suggested; others are using it well and in ways which are potentially enhancing their cognition. So, there is what individuals can do to be able to do that. There’s also what institutions, including education and employers, can do to provide the conditions where people are more likely to have a positive impact on cognition. But more broadly, the question is, again, how can we tip that more in the positive direction? Because absolutely, not just the potential, but the reality of cognitive erosion—or agency decay, as you describe it, which I think is a great phrase. So are there things we can do to move away from the widespread agency decay, which we are in danger of? Cornelia: Yeah, I think maybe we could marry our two frameworks, because the scale of agency decay that I have developed looks at experience, experimentation, integration, reliance, and addiction. I would say we have now passed the stage of experimentation, and most of us are very deeply into the field of integration. That means we’re just half a step away from reliance, where all of a sudden it becomes nearly unthinkable to write that email yourself, to do that calendar scheduling yourself, or to write that report from scratch. But that means we’re just one step away from full-blown addiction. At least now, we still have the possibility to compare the before and after, which comes back to us as an analog generation. Now is the time to invest in what I would call double literacy—a holistic understanding of our NI, our natural intelligence, but also our algorithmic, our AI. That requires a double literacy—not just AI literacy or digital literacy, but the complementarity of these two intelligences and their mutual influence, because none of them happens in a vacuum anymore. Ross: Absolutely, So what you described—experiment, integration, reliance, addiction—sounds like a slippery slope. So, what are the things we can do to mitigate or push back against that, to use AI without being over-reliant, and where that experiment leads to integration in a positive way? What can we do, either as individuals or as employers or institutions, to stop that negative slide and potentially push back to a more positive use and frame? Cornelia: A very useful tool that I have found resonates with many people is the A frame, which looks at awareness, appreciation, acceptance, and accountability. I have an alliteration affinity, as you can see. The awareness stage looks at the mindset itself and really disciplines us not to slip down that slope, but to be aware of the steps we’re taking. The appreciation is about what makes us, in our own NI, unique, and the appreciation of where, in combination with certain external tools, it can be better. We all have gaps, we all have weaknesses, and that’s what we have to accept. The human being, even though now it’s sometimes put in opposition to AI as the better one, is not perfect either. Like probably you and most of the listeners have read Thinking, Fast and Slow by Daniel Kahneman and many others—there are libraries about human heuristics, human fallacies, our inability for actual rational thinking. But the fact that you have read a book does not mean that you are immune to that. We need to accept that this is part of our modus operandi, and in the same way as we are imperfect, AI, in many different ways, is also imperfect. And finally, the accountability. Because at the end of the day, no matter how powerful our tools are going to be, we as the human decision makers should consider ourselves accountable for the outcomes. Ross: Absolutely, that’s one of the points I make. We can’t obviously make machines accountable—ultimately, the accountability resides in humans. So we have to design systems, which I think provides a bit of a transition to pro social AI. So what is pro social AI, how do we build it, how do we deploy that, and how do we make that the center of AI development? Cornelia: Thank you for that. Pro social AI, in a way, is very simple. It’s the intent that matters, but it starts from scratch, so you have the regenerative intent embedded into the algorithmic architecture. It has four key elements that can be measured, tracked, and can also serve to sensitize those who use it and those who design it—tailored, framed, tested, targeted. The pro social AI index that I’ve been working on over the past months combines that with the quadruple bottom line: purpose, people, profit, planet. Now all of a sudden, rather than talking in an airy-fairy way about ethical AI—which is great and necessary, but I would argue is not enough—we need to systematically think about how we can harness AI as a catalyst of positive transformation that is with environmental dignity and seeks planetary health. How can we measure that? Ross: And so, what are we measuring? Are we measuring an AI system, or what is the assessment tool? What is it that is being assessed? Cornelia: It’s the how and the what for. For example, what data has been used? Is the data really representative? We know that the majority of AI tools are biased. And the other question is, is it only used for efficiency and effectiveness, but to what end? Ross: Yes, as we are seeing in current conversations around the use of models at Anthropic and OpenAI, there are tools, and there are questions around how they are used, not just what the tools are. Cornelia: Yes, so again, it comes back to the need for awareness and for hybrid intelligence, because at the end of the day, we can’t rely on companies whose purpose is to make money to give systems that serve people and planet first and foremost. Ross: This goes on to another one of your wonderful framings, which is AI for IA—AI for inspired action—around this idea of how do we amplify humans and humanity. Of course, this goes on to everything we’ve been discussing so far. But I think one of the things which is very useful there is AI, in a way, leading to humans taking action which is inspired around envisaging what is possible. So, how can we inspire positive action by people in the framing we’ve discussed? Cornelia: AI for IA is the title of the new book that’s coming out next month. But also, as with most of the things I’m saying, it’s not about the technology—it’s about the human being. We can’t expect the technology of tomorrow to be better than the humans of today. As I said before, garbage in, garbage out, or values in, values out—it’s so simple and it’s so uncomfortable, it’s so cumbersome, right? Because we like quick fixes. But unfortunately, AI or technology in general is not going to save us from ourselves, and as it is right now, we’re straightforward on a trend to repeat the mistakes made during the first, second, and third industrial revolutions, where technology and innovation were driven primarily by commercial intent. Now, I would argue that this time around, we can’t leave it at that, because this fourth industrial revolution has such a strong impact on the way we think, feel, and interact, that we need to start in our very own little courtyard to think: what kind of me do I want to see amplified? Ross: Yes, yes. I’ve always thought that if AI amplifies us, or technology generally amplifies us, we will discover who we are, because the more we are amplified, the more we see ourselves writ large. But we have choices around, as you say, what aspects of who we are as individuals and as a society we can amplify. That’s the critical choice. So the question is, how do we bring awareness to your word around what it is about us that we want to amplify, and how do we then selectively amplify that, rather than also amplify the negative aspects of humanity? Cornelia: The first thing, and that’s a simple one, is the A frame. I would argue that’s something everyone can integrate in their daily routine in a very simple way, to remind us of the four A’s: awareness, appreciation, acceptance, accountability. The other one, at the institutional level, is the integration of double literacy. Right now, there’s a lot of hype in schools and at the governmental level about AI literacy and digital literacy. I think that’s only half of the equation. This is now an opportunity to take a step back and finally address this gap that has characterized education systems for many decades, where thinking and thinking about thinking—metacognition—is not taught in schools. Systems thinking, understanding cognitive biases, understanding interplays—now is the time to learn about that. If the future will be populated by humans that interact with artificial counterparts configured to address and exploit every single one of our human Achilles heels, then we would be better advised to know those Achilles heels. So, I think these are two relatively simple ways moving forward that could take us to a better place. Ross: So this goes to one of your other books on human leadership for humane technology. So leadership of course, everyone is a leader in who they touch. We also have more formal leaders of organizations, nations, political parties, NGOs, and so on. But just taking this into a business context, there are many leaders now of organizations trying to transform their organizations because they understand that the world is different, and they need to be a different organization. They still need to make money to pay for their staff and what they are doing to develop the organization, but they have multiple purposes and multiple stakeholders. So, just thinking from an organizational leader perspective, what does human leadership for humane technology mean? What does that look like? What are the behaviors? What are the ways we can see that would show us? Cornelia: I think first, it’s a reframing away from this very narrow scope of return on investment, which has characterized the business scene for many decades, and looking at return on values. What is the bigger picture that we are actually part of and shaping here? What’s the why at the end of the day? I think that matters for leaders who are in their place to guide others, and guidance is not just telling people what they have to do, but also inspiring them to want to do it. Inspiration, at the end of the day, is something that comes from the inside out, because you see in the other person something that you would like in yourself. Power and money are not it—it’s vision. I think this is maybe the one thing that is right now missing. We all tend to see the opportunity, but then we go with what everybody else is doing, because we don’t really take the time to step back and think, well, there is the path of everyone, and there’s another one—how should I explore that one? Especially amidst AI, where just upscaling your company with additional tools is not really going to set you apart, it matters twice as much to not just think about how do I do more of the same with less investment and faster, but what makes me unique, and how can I now use the artificial treasure chests to amplify that? Ross: Yes, yes. I think purpose is now well recognized beyond the business agenda. One of the critical aspects is that it attracts the most talented people, but also, over the years, we’ve had more and more opportunities to be different as an organization. Back in the late ’90s and so on, organizations looked more and more the same. Now there are more and more opportunities to be different. The way in which AI and other technologies are brought into organizations gives an extraordinary array of possibilities to be unique, as you’ve described, and distinctive, which gives you a competitive position as well as being able to attract people who are aligned with your purpose. Cornelia: Yes, exactly. But for that, you need to know your purpose first. Ross: From everything we’ve just been talking about, or anything else, are there any examples of organizations or initiatives that you think are exemplars or support the way in which, or show how, we could be approaching this well? Cornelia: I think—this will now sound very biased—but I’m currently working with Sunway University, and I think they are the kind of academic institution that is showing a different path, seeking to leverage technology to be more sustainable, bringing in dimensions such as planetary health, like the Sunway Centre for Planetary Health, and thinking about business in a re-envisioned way, with the Institute for Global Strategy and Competitiveness. I think there are examples at the institutional level, there are examples at the individual level, and sometimes the most inspiring individuals are not those that make the headlines. That’s maybe, sorry, just on that, for me the most important takeaway: no matter which place one is in the social food chain, the essential thing is, who are you and how can you inspire the person next to you to make it a better day, to make it a better future. Ross: Yes, in fact, that word “inspired,” as you mentioned before. So that’s Sunway University in Malaysia? Cornelia: I think they are definitely a very, very good illustration of that. Ross: Just pulling this back to the global frame, and this gets quite macro, but I think it is very important. It pulls together some of the things we’ve pointed to—the difference between the approach of the United States, China, Europe, in how they are, you know, essentially the leaders in AI and how they’re going about it, but where the global south more generally, I think there’s some interesting things. Arguably, there’s a far more positive attitude generally in the populations, a sense of the opportunity to transform themselves, but of course a very different orientation in how they want to use and apply AI and in creating value for individuals, nations, and society. So how would you frame those four—the US, China, Europe, and the global south—and how they are, or could be, approaching the development of AI? Cornelia: Thank you for that. I think right now there are three mainstream patterns: the US, which is—I’m overly simplifying and aware of that—the US path, which is business overall; the European model, which is regulation overall; and the Chinese model, which is state dominance. I would argue there’s a fourth path, and I think that’s where leaders in the global south can step in. You might know I’m working, on the one hand, in Malaysia and, on the other hand, in Morocco, on the development of a sort of national blueprint of what pro social AI can look like. I think now is the time—again, coming back to leadership—to think about how countries can walk a different path and be pioneers in a field that, yes, AI has been around for various decades, but the latest trend, the latest wave that is engulfing society since November 2022, is still relatively new. So why not have nations in the global south that are very different from the West chart their own path and make it pro social, pro people, pro planet, and pro potential—and that potential that they have themselves, which sets them apart and makes them unique. Ross: Absolutely. Again, you mentioned Malaysia, Morocco. Looking around the world, of course, India is prominent. There are some African nations which have done some very interesting things. Just trying to think, where are other examples of these kinds of domestically born pro social initiatives happening? Of course, the Middle East—it’s quite different, because they’re wealthy, though they’re not among the major leaders, but there’s a whole array of different examples. Where would you point to as things which show how we could be using pro social AI at a national or regional level? Cornelia: Unfortunately, right now, there is not one country where one could say they have taken it from A to Z, but I think there are very inspiring or positive examples. For example, Vietnam was the first country in ASEAN to endorse a law on AI ethics and regulation—I think that’s a very good one. Also, ASEAN has guidelines on ethics. All of these are points of departure. Switzerland did a very nice example of what public AI can look like. So there are a lot of very good examples. The question is not so much about what to do, I think, but how to do it, and why. At the end of the day, it’s really that simple. What’s the intent behind it? What do we want the post-2030 agenda to look like? We know that the SDG—Sustainable Development Goals—are not going to be fulfilled between now and 2030. So are we learning from these lessons, or are we following the track pattern of doing more of the same and maybe throwing in a couple of additional indicators, or can we really take a step back and look ourselves and the world in the face and think, what have we missed? Now, frame it however you want, but think about hybrid development goals and ways in which means and ends—society and business—come together into a more holistic equation that respects planetary health. Because at the end of the day, our survival still depends on the survival and flourishing of planet Earth, and some might cherish the idea of emigrating to Mars, but I still think that overall the majority of us would prefer to stay here. Ross: Yes, planet Earth is beautiful, and it’d be nice to keep it that way. How can people find more about your work? Could you just tell people about your new book and any resources where people can find out more? Cornelia: Thank you so much. They are very welcome to reach out via LinkedIn. Also, I’m writing regularly on Psychology Today, on Knowledge at Wharton, and various other platforms. The new book that you mentioned is coming out next month, and there will be another one, hopefully by the end of the year. Overall, feel free to reach out. I really feel that the more people get into this different trend of thinking, the better. But thank you so much for the opportunity. Ross: Thanks so much for all of your work, Cornelia. It’s very important. The post Cornelia C. Walther on AI for Inspired Action, return on values, prosocial AI, and the hybrid tipping zone (AC Ep35) appeared first on Humans + AI.

Why are women still dramatically underrepresented in leadership positions despite earning the majority of college degrees and making up half the workforce? In this episode of Wickedly Smart Women, host Anjel B. Hartwell welcomes Gloria Feldt, visionary leadership strategist, bestselling author, and co-founder of Take The Lead. Drawing on decades of experience, including serving as national president of Planned Parenthood and building leadership development programs for women, Gloria explains why the issue is not a lack of ambition but a deeper challenge around women's relationship with power and money. This episode is a must-listen for women leaders, entrepreneurs, and professionals who want to expand their impact, influence, and ability to create meaningful change.   What You Will Learn: How Gloria Felt's early life experiences shaped her passion for gender equality and leadership. What the real barriers to gender parity in leadership are and why ambition is not the issue. How women can redefine power as a creative force rather than something oppressive. Why women's relationship with money and power plays a critical role in leadership advancement. How strong networks and relationships create opportunities, funding, and career growth. What leadership power tools women can use to move into positions of influence. Why thinking bigger about business and impact can help accelerate women into leadership roles.   FAQ: Why has gender parity in leadership still not been achieved? Despite women making up roughly half of the workforce and earning the majority of college degrees, systemic cultural conditioning and structural barriers still limit women's access to leadership roles. Gloria Felt explains that the issue is not ambition but the way power and leadership have historically been defined and rewarded.   What does Gloria Felt mean by redefining power? Gloria teaches that power should not be viewed as "power over others," but as energy that can be used to create, build, and improve lives. When women shift their mindset to see power as a positive and generative force, they become more willing to pursue leadership roles.   How can women build businesses that create larger impact? Gloria encourages women to think bigger when starting businesses and to design companies that create meaningful impact in people's lives. Building organizations that solve large problems attracts investment, attention, and opportunities for scale. Connect with Gloria FeldtTake the Lead Women Connect with Anjel B.

What happens when a 20-year real estate veteran says yes to mentoring a brand-new agent? In this episode, I sit down with Platinum Group team members Jodi Hooper and Val Ovalle to talk about a modern mentorship story that has transformed both of their businesses. Jodi has been licensed since 2005. After years of saying she might retire "soon," she found something she didn't know she needed — mentoring. Val joined our team in late August, received her license in September… and was our Top Producer by December — less than four months into her career. But this episode isn't about production numbers. It's about:   What new agents really need in their first 90 days Why mentorship is more than just contracts and compliance How experienced agents can build a path toward legacy with mentorship The power of collaboration over competition And why no one should try to do this business alone If you're a new agent wondering where to start… Or a seasoned agent wondering what's next… This conversation will give you perspective, possibility, and maybe even a new path forward.

On this episode of Destination on the Left, I talk with Dan Flores, Head of Tourism at Satisfi Labs, all about using AI in the travel industry. We discuss how conversational artificial intelligence can help drive revenue and operational efficiency, and Dan offers real examples of where this AI is being deployed and how it has had real impacts. We also talk about adoption rates of AI within the tourism industry, and Dan shares a framework for approaching this new technology in your organization. What You Will Learn in This Episode: How Dan Flores transitioned from a long career in tourism operations to leading strategy in conversational AI at Satisfi Labs Why understanding operational efficiency is important when adopting new technology in the tourism industry What conversational AI can do to improve visitor experience and drive revenue How changes in consumer behavior and expectations are encouraging the tourism industry to embrace AI-powered solutions Why it's important to identify pain points and define goals before implementing AI technology in your organization Examples of real-world successful AI adoption, including collaborative projects like Connected City and integrated chatbots for DMOs, attractions, and tour operators How a strategic plan and incremental steps can help tourism businesses navigate the AI landscape The Power of Conversational AI in Tourism The tourism industry has always relied heavily on storytelling and connection, and Satisfi Labs' conversational AI platform gives destinations the ability to amplify their story and interact with customers in real-time. Unlike static websites and traditional ads, conversational AI provides dynamic interactions, it can answer questions, qualify leads, and even facilitate transactions 24/7, in dozens of languages. This delivers not only improved customer service but also a seamless path from inquiry to purchase. Driving Operational Efficiency and Revenue Operational efficiency is a cornerstone in the tourism sector, where staff often wear a lot of hats and resources are limited. Satisfi Labs' conversational agents can automate routine inquiries, freeing up staff to focus on high-value tasks and sales. Using AI turns businesses into round-the-clock operations without needing to scale human teams. A case in point is Dan's personal experience using a Satisfi Labs chatbot to resolve a ticket issue for a college basketball game in minutes, a process he expected would take much longer. The technology goes beyond simple customer service. AI-driven agents are also powerful tools for lead qualification, routing sales queries to the right person after gathering the right information, resulting in improved conversion rates and more effective use of resources. Making AI Work for You AI adoption is happening at a breakneck pace, so fast that Dan warns companies risk being left behind if they don't get on board. He suggests tourism businesses create a strategic AI plan that identifies departmental pain points and assesses if AI can offer a solution, then they can decide whether to build in-house or engage a vendor, and start small. This framework helps organizations prioritize efforts, minimize risk, and ensure resources are being used where they matter most. A key piece of advice is top-down adoption. Leadership should empower staff with resources, education, and freedom to experiment with AI tools, ensuring the culture embraces innovation.

Leadership can look shiny and still feel lonely. In Healthy Mind, Healthy Life, host Yusuf sits down with business consultant Shelley Cadamy to name the mental load behind entrepreneurship. This episode is for founders, CEOs, and high-responsibility leaders who feel pressure to stay “strong” while quietly running on empty. Shelley reframes resilience, normalizes the messy stages of business growth, and shares grounded ways to protect your mind while you build. About the Guest: Shelley Cadamy is a business consultant at Cadamy Business Consulting who has supported business owners and CEOs since 1999. She's currently completing a Master's in Social Work after realizing how much leadership support is also mental health support. She's also a foster-adoptive parent. Episode Chapters: 00:07:39 — The quiet truth of entrepreneurship 00:08:45 — When leadership starts to feel lonely 00:09:40 — Resilience isn't “just push through” 00:11:33 — Treat mental health support like any other expert resource 00:13:27 — The business life-cycle: stop making it a personal flaw 00:17:03 — Stress signals + avoiding “sparkly” quick fixes 00:19:40 — The ROI of peer groups and coaching Key Takeaways: Redefine resilience as leveraging strengths plus self-care, not just pushing through. Use experts early—coach, consultant, therapist—like you would a CFO or HR partner. Normalize the “awkward adolescent” phase of growth so you don't internalize it as failure. Watch for stress signals: sleep, mood, self-care drop, and decision-making turns reactive. When overwhelmed, don't buy quick fixes—pause, name the state you're in, and get grounded counsel.

In this episode of Wine After Work, Bryce sits down with Elif Acar-Chiasson, P.E., founder of OPLE Leadership and former COO with over 30 years in the AEC industry. Elif built her consulting practice after living inside what she calls a "broken autonomy model." Brilliant engineers are promoted into leadership roles, then trapped in approval culture where every decision climbs uphill for permission. The leader becomes the bottleneck. The team stops growing. Everyone burns out. Together, Bryce and Elif unpack: • Why technical excellence and leadership requirements are often in conflict • The hidden addiction to approval and control inside engineering firms • Why autonomy is not "do whatever you want," but clear decision ownership with guardrails • How emotional intelligence supports decision-making under pressure • What stepping away from a COO role taught Elif about fit and courage • Why leading with both head and heart is not weakness but maturity • What competitive ballroom dancing at 50 revealed about starting over and discomfort Elif shares a systemic approach to leadership. Instead of coaching one overwhelmed leader in isolation, she looks at the entire decision architecture of a team. Who owns what? Where decisions stall. How trust is built or broken. Her core belief: the most critical structural integrity is not in buildings. It is in teams. About Elif: Elif Acar-Chiasson, P.E., is a Professional Engineer and founder of OPLE Leadership. After 12 years as an executive, including 8 as COO at CSRS/Westwood, she now works with technical professionals who are exceptional at their craft but struggling in leadership roles. She translates emotional intelligence into engineering frameworks and helps teams redesign how decisions are made so leaders are no longer the bottleneck. Originally from Istanbul, Turkey, Elif brings a multicultural lens to leadership and challenges the idea that "people skills" are separate from technical rigor.   https://www.elifchiasson.com/

“Send Coach John a message”From my reading a passage from “Areté: Activate Your Heroic Potential” by Brian Johnson, and it's all about Synergy. A dictionary tells us that synergy is “the interaction or cooperation of two or more organizations, substances, or other agents to produce a combined effect greater than the sum of their separate effects.”  He shares some great examples in this post from pages 523 and 524, that got me thinking a bit along with getting inspired too! I remember one of my principles from where I worked, sharing this idea early in the school year about our staff being more synergistic and the great things that can come from it. He was right. Any team - even a team of two - that connects with this idea, awesome things can happen. The story of the Belgian horses from this passage says it all. Remember, build those relationships in your life so that synergy comes a bit easier in both the good times and especially the rough times too.

How does understanding the anatomy of leadership help us navigate personal and organizational change more effectively? In this conversation, Kevin and Louisa Loran discuss that while transformation often feels large, complex, and organizational, it is ultimately experienced and enacted by one person at a time. Louisa describes leadership as a living system with four interconnected elements: envisioning what is possible, expanding curiosity to explore new options, steering decisively through priorities and choices, and embodying presence so others can trust and follow. They address how leaders can navigate change, especially when they don't fully agree with directions set from above. Louisa emphasizes that change is rarely black and white. Instead of resisting or disengaging, effective leaders find their own point of alignment, clarify how they can contribute meaningfully, and channel their energy toward what they can influence.

Alok shares his journey from academia and engineering into entrepreneurship, where he built multiple pharmaceutical software companies collectively worth nearly $1 billion before launching Vibe Bio with a deeply personal mission. After his daughter was born with two rare diseases that had no available treatments, Alok turned his attention to one of biotech's most overlooked challenges: accelerating innovation for rare disease patients.The conversation explores how AI is changing drug discovery, why rare disease innovation has historically been underfunded, and how new tools, data, and regulatory pathways are creating fresh opportunities for founders and investors alike. Alok explains how Vibe Bio uses proprietary AI to evaluate drug programs, support pharma decision-making, and guide venture investments into high-potential therapeutics. He also shares hard-won lessons on leadership, mission-driven company building, culture, and the importance of staying obsessed with the problem while remaining flexible on tactics. This episode is a thoughtful look at the intersection of science, entrepreneurship, capital, and meaningful impact.TakeawaysIntro to Alok Tayi and the mission behind Vibe BioFrom scientist to serial founder in life sciences softwareHow Alok's daughter's diagnosis changed his life and careerLeadership lessons from scaling companies at different stagesWhat Vibe Bio actually does and how its AI worksWhy biotech and pharma are harder than most founders expectBalancing regulation, speed, and commercial realityWhy rare disease communities have been historically overlookedWhy rare disease innovation may become more viable nowWhy non-scientists can still play a major role in biotechCapital efficiency, biotech cycles, and the real funding questionWhy AI is an accelerant for biotech, not a replacementThe rise of parent-led and unconventional biotech foundersVibe Bio's AI platform versus its venture fundPlatform companies vs. individual therapy companiesHow AI-driven evaluation changes therapeutic investingAlok's biggest business and culture lessons as a founderBooks that shaped Alok's thinkingFinal advice on building with both impact and economic successChapters00:00 Intro to Alok Tayi and the mission behind Vibe Bio01:09 From scientist to serial founder in life sciences software03:16 How Alok's daughter's diagnosis changed his life and career04:28 Leadership lessons from scaling companies at different stages06:48 What Vibe Bio actually does and how its AI works10:37 Why biotech and pharma are harder than most founders expect13:51 Balancing regulation, speed, and commercial reality15:54 Why rare disease communities have been historically overlooked17:38 Why rare disease innovation may become more viable now19:25 Why non-scientists can still play a major role in biotech22:04 Capital efficiency, biotech cycles, and the real funding question24:33 Why AI is an accelerant for biotech, not a replacement26:57 The rise of parent-led and unconventional biotech founders29:50 Vibe Bio's AI platform versus its venture fund33:43 Platform companies vs. individual therapy companies37:12 How AI-driven evaluation changes therapeutic investing39:48 Alok's biggest business and culture lessons as a founder43:15 Books that shaped Alok's thinking46:22 Final advice on building with both impact and economic success48:29 Where to find Alok and Vibe BioAlok Tayi's Social Media Links:https://www.linkedin.com/in/aloktayi/https://x.com/aloktayiResources and Links:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.hireclout.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.podcast.hireclout.com⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠https://www.linkedin.com/in/hirefasthireright⁠

Cognitive neuroscientist Phillip Campbell explains how leaders can improve focus, adaptability, and strategic thinking by strengthening their brain skills. In this episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, he explores "fluid thinking," the neuroscience behind change, and why developing cognitive adaptability is essential in the age of AI. Summary In this episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, cognitive neuroscientist and executive brain coach Phillip Campbell shares powerful insights on how our brains shape our ability to lead, adapt, and innovate. Drawing on decades of research and coaching experience with Fortune 500 executives, Campbell explains why most change initiatives fail, how subconscious brain habits influence our thinking, and why "fluid thinking" is essential in the age of AI. As technological disruption accelerates, leaders who strengthen their brain skills—focus, adaptability, strategic thinking, and creativity—will be better prepared to thrive in uncertainty. This conversation explores how we can literally rewire our brains to improve performance, resilience, and success in a rapidly changing world. Rewiring the Brain for Success in the Age of AI: Insights from Cognitive Neuroscientist Phillip Campbell How do leaders adapt when change is happening faster than ever before? In this episode of On the Brink with Andi Simon, I spoke with Phillip Campbell, a cognitive neuroscientist, executive brain coach, and CEO of enigmaFit . His work focuses on something many leaders overlook: the way our brains are wired to resist change, even when we know intellectually that change is necessary. Campbell has spent more than 25 years coaching Fortune 500 executives and entrepreneurs around the world. His mission is to help leaders improve their brain skills, adaptability, and cognitive performance—capabilities that are increasingly critical in an era defined by artificial intelligence and constant disruption. Why Technology Initiatives Often Fail Campbell's journey began with a fascinating insight. Early in his career, he discovered research showing that 70% of technology implementations fail—not because of the technology itself, but because of human resistance to change. Organizations often invest heavily in systems and tools but overlook the most important element: the human brain. Campbell realized that successful transformation requires more than training people on new tools. Leaders must understand how individuals think, process information, and respond to uncertainty. When organizations align technology with how people actually work and think, adoption improves dramatically. This insight led him to develop his executive coaching firm, enigmaFit, and the TRACER methodology, which focuses on rewiring the brain to improve leadership performance. The Power of "Fluid Thinking" At the center of Campbell's work is the concept of fluid thinking. Fluid thinking is the brain's ability to adapt, solve new problems, and respond creatively to unfamiliar situations. It differs from what psychologists call crystallized knowledge—the facts and information we already know. For example: Crystallized knowledge: remembering the capital of France. Fluid thinking: solving a problem you've never encountered before. In today's fast-changing world, fluid thinking is becoming far more important. As Campbell explains, AI is transforming work by taking over routine cognitive tasks. That means humans must rely increasingly on adaptability, creativity, and strategic thinking. The Ten Subconscious Brain Habits Campbell identifies ten subconscious thinking habits—also called brain skills—that determine how effectively we think and perform. These brain habits influence abilities such as: Focus and attention control Strategic thinking Analytical thinking Creativity and innovation Adaptability and flexibility Leadership and decision-making One of the most surprising findings from Campbell's work is that 90% of executives have only low to moderate focus thinking. In other words, many leaders struggle with distraction and attention management. Modern workplaces—with constant emails, messages, and digital notifications—make the challenge even greater. When leaders strengthen their focus thinking, however, they often gain an extra hour of productive time each day and experience far less mental fatigue. Why Habits Drive Leadership Performance From an anthropological perspective, this insight is powerful. Human behavior is deeply shaped by habit and subconscious patterns. Campbell emphasizes that simply telling someone to "be more strategic" or "think more creatively" rarely works. That's because conscious intention cannot override subconscious brain habits. Instead, the brain must be trained through deliberate practice. This is similar to learning how to drive a car. At first, driving requires intense concentration. Over time, repeated practice builds neural pathways until driving becomes automatic. The same principle applies to leadership thinking. Through structured exercises and cognitive training, individuals can literally rewire the brain's neural architecture. Brain Capital in the Age of AI Campbell's work aligns with a growing global conversation about "brain capital." Organizations are beginning to recognize that their most valuable asset is not simply technology or intellectual property—it is the cognitive capability of their people. According to research highlighted by the World Economic Forum, brain capital includes: Brain health (mental well-being) Brain skills (thinking abilities) Companies that invest in strengthening both will have a significant advantage in an AI-driven economy. Building a Brain Ready for the Future The pace of change in today's world can create stress, anxiety, and burnout. Many professionals feel overwhelmed by the constant pressure to adapt. Campbell's message is ultimately optimistic. By strengthening focus, analytical thinking, creativity, and adaptability, individuals can build resilient brains capable of thriving in uncertainty. In other words, the future belongs not just to those with the most knowledge—but to those with the most adaptable minds.

Donald Trump's quest to prosecute his perceived enemies, isn't going so good for him. Remember when Donald Trump's Department of Justice filed motions to withdraw appeals they had filed in four cases Trump lost. Those cases involved Trump using executive orders to try to punish law firms that displeased him. Trump and his DOJ got crushed in all four cases, but his Department of Justice filed appeals.Well, then the DOJ threw in the towel, filing a motion to withdraw the appeals because they knew they didn't have a shot at winning.What happened next? Apparently, Donald Trump got wind of it and likely told Pam Bondi - 'nope, I am not gonna let you quit these cases or withdraw these appeals.' So like a good little flunky, Pam Bondi and her Department of Justice are now trying to take the towel back and revive the appeals that they told the court they wanted to withdraw.On the heels of that debacle, it looks like the DOJ has bucked Donald Trump again. Remember when Donald Trump wanted his DOJ to prosecute Joe Biden for using an auto pen? Here was the headline at the time: "Trump orders a probe into the Biden administration and its alleged autopen."The New York Times reported a new legal development on the Joe Biden/autopen front, "Justice Department, Under Pressure from Trump Fails to Build Autopen Case Against Biden. Prosecutors in the US attorneys office in Washington were unable to build a case, underscoring the department's increasing inability to follow through on the president's desire to indict his rivals."It sure looks like Donald Trump's DOJ leadership with Pam Bondi, Todd Blanche, and Jeanine Pirro - is crumbling. And it's looking more and more like Donald Trump's entire presidency is imploding.I sat down with former Palm Beach County State Attorney Dave Aronberg to discuss how it's becoming clearer by the day that Trump's DOJ leadership is circling the drain.Find Dave on Substack: davearonberg.substack.comFind Glenn on Substack: glennkirschner.substack.comSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In a world that moves quickly, it's easy to live at a pace that leaves our hearts hurried and distracted. In this episode, I'm sharing reflections from a slower season away and what the Lord has been teaching me about the pace of my days. It's easy to fill every quiet space with noise and constant input. But when I look at the life of Jesus, I see something different. I see presence. Unhurried conversations. Intentional time with people. Quiet moments in prayer. The pace of our days doesn't just affect our schedules. It affects our souls. We'll talk about how ordinary life is where God meets us, how our daily patterns shape our hearts, and how small, intentional choices help us reclaim presence in a distracted world. Looking at the example of Christ and the encouragement of Psalm 1, we'll be reminded that reclaiming ordinary life doesn't require dramatic changes. It begins with small steps of faithfulness right where God has placed us.

Send a textIn this episode of Tuesday Tea, Dominica sits down for a thoughtful conversation with Shackleton group Founder, Ed Gillcrist, about leadership, governance, and what really happens inside organizations once strategy meets reality. Many organizations spend enormous energy building plans, structures, and org charts. But as companies grow and decisions become more complex, the way things actually operate often looks very different from what is written on paper.This conversation explores where leadership, governance, and execution intersect- and what leaders need to understand when decision-making becomes distributed across teams, systems, and increasingly, intelligent technologies.Together, they discuss:• Why organizational charts rarely reflect how decisions are truly made • The difference between leadership, management, and governance • How execution breaks down even in highly capable organizations • What leaders often miss when responsibility becomes unclear • Why thoughtful governance is becoming more important in the age of AIAs technology accelerates and organizations adopt more automated tools and data-driven systems, the question of who ultimately owns decisions becomes more important than ever.This episode is a conversation about responsibility, stewardship, and the evolving role of leadership in complex organizations.Connect with Ed: LinkedInShackleton group If you've been following Dominica's recent exploration into AI governance and leadership in the age of intelligent systems, this discussion offers valuable perspective.Continue the ConversationDominica is also writing about these topics in more depth on Substack.You can join the conversation at: The Governance Era Support the showConnect with Dominica: https://www.instagram.com/dominicalumazar/Interested in being a guest on the show? https://sweetdmarketing.com/tuesday-tea-podcast/This episode is sponsored by Rhythm & Roast Coffee Co.
