AI Infrastructure in the Age of Sovereignty: Requirements, Strategies and a Trusted Framework for Digital Embassies is a report co-drafted with Bain & Company and published on 11 May, 2026. This webinar explores how economies can pursue AI sovereignty along a spectrum of strategies, from trusted international partnerships to extensive domestic ownership, depending on their local capabilities. The discussion examines why choices around compute, connectivity and data storage are increasingly central to long-term resilience and AI competitiveness. A core focus is what these choices look like in practice: how different approaches along the spectrum can be translated into credible strategies, what shared infrastructure arrangements require, and how digital embassies can serve as an option for extending sovereign AI infrastructure beyond national borders. This is the full audio from a webinar recorded on 12 May, 2026. Speakers: Samira Gazzane, Policy Lead, Future-Ready Economies, World Economic Forum (In Person) Cathy Li, Head, Centre for AI Excellence; Member, Executive Committee, World Economic Forum (In Person) Florian Mueller, Senior Partner and Head, AI, Insights & Solutions for EMEA, Bain & Company (In Person) Ann Marie Lavigne, Vice-President, Strategic Initiatives, Snowflake Sean Kask, Chief AI Strategy Officer, SAP (Online) Ali Al Amine, Chief Commercial Officer, G42 International (Online) Check out all our podcasts on wef.ch/podcasts: YouTube: - https://www.youtube.com/@wef/podcasts Radio Davos - subscribe: https://pod.link/1504682164 Meet the Leader - subscribe: https://pod.link/1534915560 Agenda Dialogues - subscribe: https://pod.link/1574956552
Kristy Ellmer has spent her career leading large-scale transformations across industries, countries, and operating environments. In this conversation, she explains why most change efforts fail — not because of bad strategy, but because organizations underestimate the human side of execution. A central idea from the discussion is the imbalance between the "what" and the "how" of transformation. Leaders spend enormous energy defining strategy, targets, and operating levers, but far less time on the behaviors and systems required for adoption. As Ellmer explains, "transformations or change are failing… on the elements of the how. It's not because there was bad strategy." She argues that many executives rush from alignment into execution before the organization is ready. One of the most counterintuitive lessons from her work is the need to pause after agreement is reached: "You need to take… up to two months to get organized." Without the right operating structure, early momentum eventually stalls. The conversation also explores why momentum must be designed intentionally. Discussing transformation work at Aetna, Ellmer explains the importance of visible early wins and helping employees understand "what's in it for you." She emphasizes that leaders are "responsible for momentum," not just strategy. Another major theme is resistance to change. Early in her career, Ellmer believed that "everybody will just get on board because things are right." Experience taught her otherwise. Different groups respond to different incentives, fears, and motivations. Her advice: "Be curious" about why people resist rather than assuming they are unwilling to change. She also challenges traditional views of change management, arguing that communication plans and training sessions alone are insufficient. "There is real science now out there on how humans really change," she says, and organizations that ignore that science struggle to achieve lasting adoption. The discussion also covers: why long transformations create fatigue when organizations never create "endings" how senior leaders should think about AI adoption versus AI hype why most companies are integrating AI as a workflow tool rather than fully replacing human work what separates successful consulting partners from those who simply "tick boxes" why career growth often comes from "leaning into uncertainty" Throughout the episode, Ellmer returns to one principle: organizations execute change more effectively when they treat employees with the same intentionality they would apply to external customers. "It's your job to sell the change," she says — not simply announce it. Kristy Ellmer is a Managing Director and Senior Partner at BCG and a former Chief Transformation Officer, with decades of experience leading multiyear transformations inside global organizations.

John is joined by Richard East, Senior Partner of Quinn Emanuel's London office, and Nikolas Bruce-Smith, Partner in Quinn Emanuel's London office. They discuss a major London commercial trial arising from the collapse of Greensill Capital and the resulting litigation between Credit Suisse and SoftBank. The plaintiff alleged that SoftBank sought to orchestrate, for its own ends, a complex restructuring involving the Greensill Group in late 2020, through which approximately US$440 million worth of assets were allegedly placed improperly beyond the reach of creditors while Greensill was in severe financial distress.Following a five-week trial in 2025, and one of the first major trial conclusions arising from the widely publicised Greensill collapse, Credit Suisse's claim failed. SoftBank's conduct was vindicated by the English High Court, which found that SoftBank had acted “in good faith” and “did not know or suspect” that Greensill intended to prejudice its creditors.The trial was especially unique and notable, garnering extensive press attention, because Greensill founder Lex Greensill voluntarily agreed, on the eve of trial, to appear and testify despite not being called by either side and while facing separate legal and regulatory proceedings. A development like this is almost unheard of in complex, high-stakes commercial litigation and required all parties to adapt at the last minute in response to such an extraordinary turn of events as the trial commenced.Podcast Link: Law-disrupted.fmHost: John B.

EP — Lucy Parker explains why sustainability only works when leaders stop hiding in the castle and start engaging with the real world.Lucy Parker argues that the real challenge in sustainability is leadership behaviour: large companies still operate as if they can stay behind the walls, even though stakeholders now expect open engagement and socially relevant decisions.The conversation covers ESG's collapse, system‑level change, supply‑chain realities, political headwinds, and how SMEs can act when resources are tight. The focus is practical: decision points leaders face, how to prioritise material issues, and why recalibration is normal rather than failure.What You'll Learn in This Episode:• Decide which sustainability issues actually fall within your remit• Shift from corporate‑centric thinking to socially relevant leadership• Work with competitors without breaching competition rules• Recalibrate sustainability targets without losing direction• Spot where system‑level change is possible in your sectorThis episode is for UK business owners who want clarity on sustainability without noise or posturing.*For Apple Podcast chapters, access them from the menu in the bottom right corner of your player*Spotify Video Chapters:0:00 Sustainability without BS begins01:00 Tom's intro and why leadership matters02:20 Lucy's role and the social value of business04:40 What leaders still haven't caught up with07:00 Corporate‑centric vs socially relevant09:40 Who owns responsibility for global problems?12:20 Is ESG dead?16:00 Data, measurement and unbundling ESG20:20 The ESG backlash and political noise25:40 Net zero, realism and recalibration32:10 Supply chains, plastic and system constraints38:40 Consumers, behaviour and plastic reality44:00 Regulation, CSRD and where responsibility sits50:40 System change and pre‑competitive collaboration57:00 Leadership, conviction and next‑gen expectations1:10:00 What SMEs can actually do this weekWatch and subscribe to us on YouTubeFollow us:InstagramTikTokLinkedInTwitterFacebookIf you'd like to be on the show, get in contact - mail@businesswithoutbullshit.me

Key Topics: What it means to have a "financial quarterback" and why every wealth-building family needs one on their team The "financial finish line" concept — defining how much is enough so generosity can take the lead Why financial independence can become spiritually toxic, and how biblical wisdom offers a better framework Navigating wealth across generations: how every family member can be "Gen 1 in something" How Blue Trust celebrated over $450 million in collaborative client giving in a single year — and their goal to reach $2 billion annually by decade's end Notable Quotes: "A lot of times our clients will describe us as their comprehensive financial quarterback — someone who steps in with families who've experienced wealth and complexity and have a lot of moving parts." — Kyle Kutz "People can spend so much of their time and life growing the financial capital side of their balance sheet, but ignoring the non-financial capital items — the spiritual capital, the social capital, the intellectual capital, the relational capital." — Kyle Kutz "Financial independence in its truest form is independence from greed, independence from being complacent, independence from fear." — Kyle Kutz About Kyle Kutz: Kyle Kutz serves as Private Family Office Director, Senior Family Office Advisor, and Senior Partner at Blue Trust, a faith-driven financial advisory firm founded by Ron Blue in 1979. With $60 billion in assets under advisory, 20 offices nationwide, and over 11,000 client families, Blue Trust is one of the preeminent faith-driven wealth management firms in the country. Kyle works with high-complexity entrepreneurial families, helping them move through a process of Clarity → Alignment → Peace of Mind while stewarding their financial, spiritual, and relational capital with intentionality. Description: What happens when the advisor sitting across the table from you doesn't just understand your estate plan — but also your eternal purpose? Kyle Kutz of Blue Trust has spent his career as a "comprehensive financial quarterback" for families navigating the complexity of significant wealth, and in this conversation with Luke Roush, he unpacks what that actually looks like in practice. From defining a financial finish line to equipping next-generation inheritors with identity and calling, this episode is a masterclass in faith-driven stewardship. Kyle and Luke explore the idea that financial independence — properly understood — isn't about accumulating enough to need nothing; it's about independence from greed, fear, and complacency. They also dig into the tent analogy for multi-generational giving, the home-going plan Blue Trust uses to prepare families for legacy, and why encouraging clients to give generously has only deepened relationships and grown the firm. Whether you're a first-generation wealth creator, a next-generation inheritor still finding your footing, or an advisor trying to serve families with both technical excellence and biblical wisdom, this episode will challenge and equip you for the stewardship journey ahead.

93% of the population. Almost entirely locked out of an industry that says it wants the best talent.Laurie Robathan grew up on the wrong side of that statistic. He was raised in inner-city Bristol, went to a state school, and grew up in a single-parent family. He found his way into finance through one thin thread of chance, and he's never forgotten how easily it could have gone the other way.At some point, that thread started to feel less like luck and more like a problem. Because what about everyone who never gets that thread at all?So Laurie walked away from a successful career in finance and built Fairfield in its place. It's a charity on paper, but really it's a business proposition designed to fix what he calls an inefficiently functioning labor market. Because when 80% of senior finance leaders come from just 7% of the population, that's not meritocracy. That's a pipeline problem.And he's not solving it from a boardroom. He's on trains, in school assemblies, at North London career fairs at 8pm. Doing the work.In this episode, Stacy Havener sits down with Laurie for one of those conversations that stays with you long after it's over.Listen in to hear:Why finance doesn't have a talent problem, it has an access problem Why the best person for the job may never make it to the interview room How Fairfield prepares students to belong before they ever walk through the doorWhat individuals and firms can do to helpMore About Laurie Robathan:Prior to his retirement from the finance industry, Laurie worked in the City for over 15 years, the last 10 years being at Kepler Partners LLP as Senior Partner. Before Kepler, he had roles at Scottish Widows Investment Partnership and Close Brothers Bank. As a member of Kepler's management committee, Laurie had input into all areas of the asset management business. He holds the Investment Management Certificate (IMC) and has an MSc in Finance & Investment from the University of Bristol. ---Running a fund is hard enough.Ops shouldn't be.Meet the team that makes it easier. | billiondollarbackstory.com/ultimus- - -Thinking about expanding your investor base beyond the US?

Getting rich isn't about working harder. It's about playing a different game entirely. In this episode of ROI Podcast™, Chris Van Dusen, Senior Partner at Solyco Capital, breaks down how wealth is actually built behind the curtain… not the version you see on TikTok. We talk about: What private equity really does (without the jargon) Why most founders fail before they ever had a chance The difference between wealth preservation and wealth creation How high-net-worth investors think about risk and returns Why doing hard things on purpose is the only real edge Chris went from getting laid off 75 days into a new life… to building and selling multiple companies and now deploying capital at scale. This episode is part strategy, part reality check, and part "you're not working as hard as you think you are." If you want to understand money, business, and how deals actually happen… press play. Chris Van Dusen isn't your typical finance guy who memorized a few buzzwords and now cosplays as an investor on LinkedIn. He's the guy who got punched in the face by real life, got back up, and decided to start building instead of complaining. After graduating from the College of William & Mary with a degree in economics, Chris entered the world of finance through real estate investment banking. Then the market did what markets do best… and nuked his job. Just 75 days after moving to California, he was unemployed. That's not a pivot. That's a shove. Instead of retreating, he became what he calls an "accidental entrepreneur." Over the next decade, he built, scaled, and exited multiple companies, including selling three businesses across 2019 and 2021. He also raised funds in emerging sectors like cannabis, helped grow media companies, and worked directly with founders trying to not implode under pressure. Today, Chris is a Senior Partner at Solyco Capital, a vertically integrated private investment firm focused on capital solutions for growth-stage companies. His role is simple to explain but hard to execute: find great companies, structure capital around them, and deliver meaningful returns for investors. Translation: he's betting on jockeys, not just horses. Chris works closely with high-net-worth individuals, family offices, and institutional investors, helping them deploy capital into alternative assets and private deals with asymmetric upside potential. The kind of deals most people don't even know exist. Beyond finance, Chris brings a discipline-first mindset shaped by his background as a former Division I pitcher and a Brazilian jiu-jitsu black belt. His philosophy is blunt: do hard things on purpose, or life will pick hard things for you anyway. Whether it's grinding through entrepreneurship, surviving market cycles, or getting choked out on a mat for 10 years straight, Chris has built a reputation for embracing discomfort instead of avoiding it. And that mindset shows up in everything he does. Episode sponsored...

Most organizations are experimenting with AI. Far fewer are transforming with it. Bernhard Mühlreiter, Senior Partner at McKinsey & Company, makes the case for why that gap is closing and what it takes to be on the right side of it.In conversation with Richard Taylor, Retail and Consumer Goods Lead APJ at AWS, Mühlreiter outlines the three things that distinguish AI leaders: bold ambition, managing AI as a true transformation program, and broad-based capability building. He explores why lack of speed remains the biggest disappointment he sees in organizations today, and why, as Andy Jassy has noted, speed is ultimately a leadership decision.From T-shaped transformation frameworks to agile "digital factory" team structures, this episode offers executives a clear-eyed and practical perspective on how to move from isolated pilots to enterprise-wide AI impact.
In this eye-opening episode of Flourishing Edge, host Ashish Kothari sits down with Kweilin Ellingrud, Senior Partner at McKinsey & Company and author of The Broken Rung. While much attention is paid to the "glass ceiling" at the top of organizations, Kweilin's research reveals that the most significant barrier to women's advancement—and specifically women of color—happens at the very first step to manager. We unpack why educational achievements aren't translating into promotions, the hidden value of "experience capital," and how the disparity in sponsorship versus mentorship quietly stalls promising careers. This episode provides a data-backed blueprint for individuals looking to take agency over their advancement and for leaders committed to building truly equitable talent pipelines.Main Topics CoveredThe Broken Rung Defined: Why the first promotion to manager is the biggest point of inequality in the talent pipeline.The Education Paradox: Why women out-earn men in college degrees but stall at the entry level.Picking the Right Company: Why the organization you choose matters more for lifetime earnings than your specific job or boss.Experience Capital: Understanding the skills, knowledge, and wisdom learned on the job that account for half of lifetime income.The Sponsorship Gap: Why women are often over-mentored but under-sponsored, and how to fix it.Network Structures: The difference between open and closed networks and why mixing personal and professional circles is a career accelerator.Skill Signaling: How to quantify and communicate social and emotional skills for better career rewards.Key TakeawaysFix the Rung to Fix the Top: You cannot equalize the C-suite without first fixing the first promotion to manager; the "talent funnel" math simply won't work otherwise.Sponsorship is the Game-Changer: Mentors provide advice, but sponsors create opportunities. Aim for 2–3 active sponsors who will advocate for you when you aren't in the room.Beware the "Narrow" Network: Women are statistically more likely to have junior, gender-homogenous networks. Diversify your network across levels, functions, and genders to increase your "reach."Make "Big Bold Moves": To maximize experience capital, aim for roles where 25% or more of the required skills are new to you.Stay Near the "Cash Register": Spending time in the "Power Alley"—the functions that drive a company's revenue and profit—builds unrivaled credibility and career acceleration.Connect with the GuestLinkedIn: Kweilin EllingrudThe Book: The Broken RungMcKinsey Research: Women in the Workplace ReportDon't let your career stall at the entry level.

The Senior Partner of Magna Leadership Solutions is Mark's special guest for this enlightening episode. Kevin Gazzara is a Positive Intelligence Coach. Mental Fitness is critical in today's business world as he discusses that and his book, 'The Leader Of Oz' and how it is helping many today.
Jim Hemerling is Senior Partner at Boston Consulting Group's San Francisco office and a leader in the firm's People & Organization and Transformation Practices. He has been the leader of BCG Greater China and is a Fellow of the BCG Henderson Institute. His work with clients and his research focuses on holistic human-centric approaches to organizational transformation. Jim is a co-author of BCG's new book - Beyond Great: Nine Strategies for Thriving in an Era of Social Tension, Economic Nationalism, and Technological Revolution. Global companies remain hamstrung by organizational forms that leave them mired in bureaucracy and slow to respond to changing needs. To grow in the volatility of the 21st century, firms must go beyond the familiar matrix structure and reconfigure themselves in more flexible ways. COVID-19 and its myriad effects on ways of working will force leaders to rethink how they build teams and acquire, upskill, and retain talent. Hemerling and his colleagues launched a study of dozens of global companies to determine successful leadership strategies and found that, though seemingly obvious, the best leaders put people and their needs first, rather than regarding them as resources to exploit. Hemerling and coauthors write about these topics in Beyond Great: Nine Strategies for Thriving in an Era of Social Tension, Economic Nationalism, and Technological Revolution (October 6, PublicAffairs). BCG's first major book in years, it will redefine strategy in the post-COVID era. Extending their research far beyond the expected Silicon Valley players, Hemerling and his coauthors at BCG looked at over fifty companies and interviewed hundreds of CEOs across sectors and geographies. The trends: By 2030, companies around the world will have some eight-five million skilled jobs unfilled—a gap that will exact a severe economic toll; In a 2018 BCG survey of 366,000 people from two hundred countries, ranked "good work-life balance" as much more important than "financial compensation" Over 40 percent of hiring managers anticipated that nontraditional educational criteria—like a coding "boot camp"—would soon be just as good a credential as a college degree when evaluating candidates. For incumbents to thrive amidst these challenges, they must deploy new strategies that touch every part of their business, from value propositions and global supply chains to leadership and social responsibility goals. A huge part of this is leadership and the future of work—how to retain employees, attract top talent, and navigate tension when global forces are changing attitudes about work and life. Examples of innovative leadership: Deemphasizing hierarchy encourages employees to take ownership of projects and propel them forward without bothering to seek approval from bosses; Exploiting the gray area of informal conversations that typically take place between colleagues allows employees to break free from their daily work and innovate; Gamifying candidate screening and identifying talent via online competitions and hackathons to appeal to a new generation.
