What if I told you that while the world has undergone profound changes, our leadership approaches have remained largely stagnant? What if, instead of relying on hierarchical structures and top-down directives, leaders embraced a more effective approach based on trust and inspiration? In this episode of the Insight Out, I have the pleasure of sitting down with none other than Stephen M.R. Covey, a renowned author and an authority on leadership. We dive deep into the transformative power of trust and how it serves as a cornerstone of inspiration in leadership. Covey draws a stark contrast between the antiquated command and control style and the trust and inspire approach, which he passionately advocates for as being crucial in today's world, especially when dealing with knowledge workers. Throughout our conversation, Covey shares personal anecdotes and real-world examples that bring his concepts to life. Such examples are the leadership styles of Microsoft's CEO, Satya Nadella and the leadership approach of Zoom CEO Eric Yuan which epitomizes the principles we discuss. He then breaks down the three stewardships of a trust and inspire leader—modeling, trusting, and inspiring. Each of these plays a vital role in not just leading but empowering others to reach their full potential. Covey doesn't just leave us with theory; he offers practical advice on how to build agreements that lay the foundation for a collaborative and empowered workplace. Join us as we explore these insightful themes and let's uncover how trust and inspiration can reshape the landscape of leadership In this episode, you will learn the following: Leadership and its impact on individuals Shifting from command and control to trust and inspire leadership The principles of trust and inspire contrasted with command and control The importance of self-awareness and a shift towards trust and inspire leadership The barriers to becoming a trust and inspire leader The three stewardships of a trust and inspire leader: modeling, trusting, and inspiring In This Episode: [10:20] Tapping into untapped potential [18:08] Command and control vs. trust and inspire [20:37] Trust and inspire [25:02] Barriers to becoming a trust and inspire leader [35:23] Inspiring confidence in others [38:35] Trust as human motivation [40:17] Microsoft's Satya Nadella as a trust and inspire leader [41:32] Modeling behavior [43:54] Inspiring leadership [45:24] The power of trust [52:01] Building trust through Co-Creation [54:00] The leadership style of Eric Yuan, CEO of Zoom [55:02] The power of modeling in leadership [59:46] Stephen M.R. Covey's motivation for trust and leadership Notable Quotes [21:07] "We light the fire within; that fire once lit can burn on for months, if not years, without the need for constant external stimuli." - Stephen M. R. Covey [22:10] "To operate with a command and control style is like trying to play tennis with a golf club; it's not relevant to the game being played."- Stephen M. R. Covey [36:25] “Leadership is communicating people's worth and potential so clearly. That they come to see it in themselves.” Billy Samoa] [47:22] "When you trust people, they grow, they develop, and they become their best selves because they develop new capabilities." - Stephen M. R. Covey [51:43] “I believe in our world today, not trusting is more often the greater risk.” Stephen M. R. Covey Resources and Links Stephen M. R.

Het demissionaire kabinet gaat adviseren om tieners onder de 15 jaar geen social media te laten gebruiken en om niet te beginnen aan een mobiele telefoon vóór groep 8. Dat melden ingewijden aan onder andere RTL Nieuws en persbureau ANP. Niels Kooloos vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. 'Gezond Schermgebruik', zoals de richtlijn van het kabinet heet, wordt dinsdag gepresenteerd door demissionair staatssecretaris Vincent Karremans. Hoewel het niet om een wettelijk verbod gaat, is het volgens de ingewijden wel een 'dringend advies' van het kabinet. Daarmee lijkt het kabinet deels gehoor te geven aan een motie die eerder dit jaar met een ruime meerderheid werd aangenomen door de Tweede Kamer. Daarin wordt het kabinet opgeroepen om een socialmediaverbod op Europees niveau te regelen. Een richtlijn op nationaal niveau kan een eerste stap daarnaartoe zijn. Verder in deze Tech Update: Microsoft-baas Satya Nadella is op 'AI Tour' en was maandag in Amsterdam om meer te vertellen over de soevereine cloud waar Microsoft aan werkt WhatsApp gaat binnen nu en een aantal maanden reclame laten zien See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

At Microsoft Build 2025, Microsoft focused on agentic AI, making it central to their developer strategy. CEO Satya Nadella introduced the “agentic web,” where AI takes a bigger role in software creation. Key updates included evolving GitHub Copilot into a programming partner, new features for managing AI agents, and giving them identities and security controls. Microsoft also backed open standards like Agent2Agent and MCP. The event highlighted how AI will reshape developer roles, adoption challenges, and productivity gains, while noting the shift is still early. Success depends on real-world use, openness, and developer trust.Time Stamps:0:00 - Cold Open0:40 - Welcome to the Tech Field Day News Rundown2:22 - Crunchy Data acquired by Snowflake5:27 - Broadcom Launches Ultra-Fast Chip for AI Data Centers9:46 - EU Group Urges Action on Broadcom's VMware Licensing14:27 - IBM Adds New Data Platform Capabilities18:27 - Amazon Investing $20 Billion in Pennsylvania for Cloud and AI Infrastructure22:44 - IBM Plans 'Starling' Quantum Computers by 202927:51 - Microsoft Centers Agentic AI Strategy around Development Community at Microsoft Build 202537:49 - The Weeks Ahead39:31 - Thanks for Watching The Tech Field Day News RundownFollow our hosts Tom Hollingsworth, Alastair Cooke, and Stephen Foskett.

May has been a busy month for news in the IT world, with cyber attacks hitting retailers across the UK and Microsoft laying off over 800 developers.In this episode of the ITPro Podcast, Jane is joined by news and analysis editor Ross Kelly to discuss three of the most significant news stories of the past month and wish Java a happy 30th birthday.Highlights“A significant portion of [the redundancies] are in Washington state, in the US, the heartland of Microsoft headquarters. It comes at quite an interesting period for Microsoft – they've been performing well, they're really bullish on their AI investments at the moment. But again, another round of layoffs and it must be really demoralizing for people not only at Microsoft … but across the tech industry to see this still continuing.”“[For] developers and engineers specifically, I think the writing has been on the wall. We've spoken about this a couple of times over the last year, when you look at big figures in the tech industry like Marc Benioff specifically on agentic AI talking about the fact that they might not have to hire any engineers in the second half of 2025 … you have to wonder where they're all going to go.”“Last week, on the 21st M&S said hackers were able to essentially access systems by social engineering techniques at a third party contractor, [which] allowed them to circumvent M&S defenses and caused an absolute disaster, and again, it underlines the dangers of an increasingly interconnected software supply chain.”“[Java's] a programming language that's had remarkable longevity, still very popular. We covered something on this last year around the fact that … its popularity is still there very much. It's having somewhat of a renaissance, so to speak, in terms of organizations really scrambling to get Java developers.”FootnotesMicrosoft workers face a fresh round of layoffs – here's who could be impactedMicrosoft expects 1.3 billion AI agents to be in operation by 2028 – here's how it plans to get them working together‘Developers will need to adapt': Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella reveals the scale of AI-generated code useAgentic AI is coming for customer service jobsCrowdStrike layoffs to hit 500 staff as firm targets strategic AI shiftMore than a third of UK tech leaders admit they've cut staff in favor of AI – but now they regret making hasty redundanciesWhy DragonForce is growing in prominence – with retailer attacks boosting its reputation
En este episodio de re:INVÉNTATE, exploramos una de las habilidades más poderosas y peor entendidas del liderazgo moderno: el storytelling de liderazgo.¿Crees que liderar es dar órdenes claras y datos precisos? ¿Piensas que las historias son para el marketing, no para liderar equipos? La realidad es que el 95% de las decisiones ejecutivas se toman por historias, no por datos, y los líderes que no dominan esta habilidad están condenados a ser managers olvidables.Pero no hablamos de contar cuentos bonitos o manipular emociones. Hablamos de **conectar auténticamente** a través de narrativas que mueven equipos, transforman culturas y construyen movimientos.En este episodio aprenderás:✅ Por qué Satya Nadella transformó Microsoft con una historia personal, no con una reestructuración.✅ Las 4 dimensiones del Storytelling de Liderazgo: Vulnerabilidad Estratégica, Estructura Magnética, Detalles Cinematográficos y Transformación Colectiva.✅ Cómo Steve Jobs, Reed Hastings y otros líderes icónicos usaron historias para mover millones (de personas y dólares).✅ Un plan específico de 7 días para empezar a liderar con historias desde mañana mismo.Si quieres dejar de ser un manager que da instrucciones y convertirte en un líder que inspira acción genuina, este episodio es para ti.Déjanos ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ para ayudarnos a llegar a más personas con este contenido transformador: re:INVÉNTATE en Spotify y Apple Podcasts.¿Tienes preguntas o quieres compartir tus progresos en el desarrollo de este PowerSkill?

MJ DePalma sees marketing as an act of human connection, not a numbers game. As Head of Marketing with Purpose at Microsoft, she helped turn the phrase “inclusion is personalization” into a company-wide growth playbook, and a case study in countless business schools. In her conversation with Ryan, MJ revisits the day Satya Nadella's growth-mindset culture lured her back to Microsoft, and explains why every KPI should ladder to a single mission. MJ also warns that a two-degree course error in AI can send brands hundreds of miles off track, and describes how quantum computing may rewrite the rules of brand empathy.

Aparna Chennapragada is the chief product officer of experiences and devices at Microsoft, where she oversees AI product strategy for their productivity tools and work on agents. Previously, she was the CPO at Robinhood, spent 12 years at Google, and is also on the board of eBay and Capital One.What you'll learn:1. How “prompt sets are the new PRDs” and why prototyping with AI is now essential for effective product development2. The three key characteristics of AI agents: autonomy (delegation of tasks), complexity (handling multi-step challenges), and natural interaction (conversing beyond simple chat)3. Why NLX (natural language experience) is the new UX, requiring deliberate design principles for conversational interfaces4. Why the PM role isn't dying in the AI era—it's evolving to emphasize tastemaking and editing5. How living “one year in the future” can be operationalized with programs like Microsoft's Frontier6. How even traditional enterprises can balance cutting-edge AI adoption with appropriate governance through dual-track approaches7.

The discussion delves into the tension between vendor partnerships and innovation, challenging the notion that vendor alignment equals strategic vision. Satya Nadella claims "AI hasn't delivered much yet" while Bill Gates predicts AI replacing doctors within a decade. Reid offers a nuanced perspective, suggesting, "People aren't wanting tools that look smart. They want tools that are simple... that get out of the way and just get to work."

This week, we welcome Laura Clayton McDonnell, President of the Corporates Business Segment at Thomson Reuters. Laura shares her inspiring journey from corporate securities law to executive leadership at top technology companies, including Apple, Cisco, IBM, Microsoft, and now Thomson Reuters. She discusses how her Silicon Valley upbringing and her family's immigrant experience have shaped her leadership style and commitment to innovation in the legal industry. Laura's personal purpose—rooted in values like courage, curiosity, and integrity—drives her mission to deliver measurable value to clients through legal technology and business transformation.The conversation highlights the rapid advancements in legal technology, with a special focus on the impact of generative AI and agentic AI in the legal sector. Laura explains how she stays ahead of legal tech trends by collaborating with internal teams, listening to customer feedback, and learning from her daughter, a practicing transactional lawyer. She emphasizes the importance of a growth mindset, continuous learning, and adaptability—qualities she honed during her time at Microsoft under Satya Nadella's leadership and through the teachings of Carol Dweck's “Growth Mindset.”Laura provides insights into how corporate legal, tax, and compliance departments are evolving from traditional cost centers to strategic business partners, thanks to innovative legal technology solutions from Thomson Reuters. She discusses how tools like Westlaw, Practical Law, Legal Tracker, and OneSource are helping legal professionals automate routine tasks, reduce contract review times by over 80%, and save millions on outside counsel spend. Laura notes that forward-thinking clients are not just adopting new legal tech tools—they are developing comprehensive strategies to transform business processes, training, and staffing for the future of legal work.The episode also explores the rise of alternative legal service providers (ALSPs) and the ongoing bifurcation of the legal market driven by technology adoption. Laura observes that general counsel are increasingly sophisticated in their approach, weighing cost, complexity, and the use of AI to achieve better outcomes. She stresses that legal technology is now essential for law firms and ALSPs alike, and that innovation and value delivery are key to staying competitive in the evolving legal landscape.Looking to the future, Laura predicts that predictive analytics, risk assessment, and cross-functional insights will become even more critical for legal, tax, and compliance professionals. She highlights the growing demand for skilled legal talent and the importance of ongoing training, ethical oversight, and building resilient, growth-oriented teams. Laura encourages legal industry leaders to prepare for a future where human expertise and advanced legal technology work together to drive strategic transformation and business success.For more information on legal technology trends, AI in the legal industry, and upcoming events, Laura invites listeners to connect with her on LinkedIn or visit Thomson Reuters.

WBSRocks: Business Growth with ERP and Digital Transformation
Send us a textThe tech and enterprise software landscape is undergoing rapid transformation, marked by a mix of bold acquisitions and cautious public market strategies. While Databricks' CEO candidly states that “it's dumb to IPO this year,” citing market volatility and strategic timing, major players are making aggressive moves elsewhere. From Thomson Reuters' $600M acquisition of tax automation firm SafeSend to WWT's $1.25B blockbuster deal to acquire Softchoice, the momentum is clearly shifting toward consolidation and capability expansion. Microsoft's Satya Nadella has also sparked debate with his prediction that AI agents could overtake traditional SaaS models by 2025, signaling a fundamental shift in how software is built and consumed. Meanwhile, companies like SPS Commerce, Cass Information Systems, and Later are strengthening their portfolios through targeted acquisitions, reflecting a broader trend of investing in specialized tools and emerging platforms. Together, these developments hint at a future shaped less by IPOs and more by ecosystem dominance and AI-powered disruption.In today's episode, we invited a panel of industry analysts for a live discussion on LinkedIn to analyze current enterprise software stories. We covered many grounds, including the direction and roadmaps of each enterprise software vendor. Finally, we analyzed future trends and how they might shape the enterprise software industry.Background Soundtrack: Away From You – Mauro SommFor more information on growth strategies for SMBs using ERP and digital transformation, visit our community at wbs. rocks or elevatiq.com.
