Podcasts about stay relevant

Does it feel like the world is moving faster than you can keep up? From AI taking over tasks to the "way we've always done it" suddenly failing, the pressure to stay relevant is real. Today, veteran operator James Orsini joins Dr. JC Doornick to talk about the human side of high-level success. James isn't just a corporate executive; he's a survivor of 40 years of industry shifts. He shares why your "past self" might be holding you back and how to find the "connective tissue" that keeps you grounded while you scale. We also touch on the vYve Mastermind, the community James is helping lead to ensure founders don't have to face these changes alone. #CareerAdvice #PersonalGrowth #JamesOrsini #ReinventYourself #Mindset #Success   Connect With James: IG: @jamesorsini LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/james-orsini Websites: Factotum: https://www.factotum.com Vyve - https://www.vyve.co     Dr. JC Doornick Links: Web - www.makessensebook.com YT -    / @drjcdoornick IG -   / @drjcdoornick FB -   / @makessensepodcast Makes Sense Book - https://tinyurl.com/makessensepurchase   MAKES SENSE PODCAST Welcome to the Makes Sense with Dr. JC Doornick Podcast.

Chris Hall — the Ecom Cowboy, former All-American offensive lineman at UT Austin, and the guy who scaled Bruce Bolt to one of Shopify's fastest-growing stores as a team of one — is as entertaining as he is tactical. But underneath the hat and the accent is a marketer who has been thinking hard about what separates the people who survive this AI moment from the ones who don't. His take: the button-pushers are already gone. The marketers who build and manage agents — and who also make bold analog bets — are the ones who get more valuable every quarter.Inside the episode:Why the "team of one" marketer is actually more viable than ever — and the Claude-powered workflow Chris used to handle ads, email, SMS, reporting, and organic social simultaneously at Bruce BoltHow BattleBox turned Whatnot into their #2 revenue channel (surpassing Amazon) — with net-new customers, not cannibalized .com sales — and why most DTC brands are still completely asleep on itThe AI stack Chris is actually using: Claude for strategy and execution, Wideframe for agentic video editing, Kive for AI product imagery so clean that seven-figure brands are running it as their entire Instagram feedWhy "get sweaty on camera" is one of the highest-leverage moves a marketer can make right now — and the skill it builds that AI literally cannot replicateThe two anti-AI bets Chris thinks every brand and operator needs to make in 2026 — and why they work because of AI, not in spite of it—Sponsored by OMG Commerce - go to https://www.omgcommerce.com/contact and request your FREE strategy session today!—‍Chapters:[0:00] Welcome & Introducing the Ecom Cowboy[1:53] Origin of the Ecom Cowboy Brand & Name[2:17] Chris Hall's Football Career at UT & Blocking Von Miller[4:43] From the NFL to Nonprofits to E-Commerce[6:45] Inside Bruce Bolt: One of Shopify's Fastest Growing Stores[9:07] The Future of Marketing Jobs in an AI World[14:26] What Marketers Must Do to Stay Relevant in 2026[17:32] Getting Claude-Pilled: Building Your Agentic Workforce[21:44] Running an Entire Marketing Team with AI Agents[27:34] Chris Hall's Full AI Stack (Wideframe, Higgsfield & More)[31:36] AI Productivity Hacks: Daily Reports, WhisperFlow & Skills[36:40] The Anti-AI Bet: Live Streaming & IRL Activations[39:11] Why Every Brand Should Be on Whatnot Right Now[47:29] Wrapping Up & How to Find Chris Hall Daily—Connect With Brett: LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thebrettcurry/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCQmbMwBW8LYDfFAqNqlgTGw Website: https://www.omgcommerce.com/ Request a Free Strategy Session: https://www.omgcommerce.com/contactRelevant Links: Chris' LinkedIn: /chrislukehallPast guests on eCommerce Evolution include Ezra Firestone, Steve Chou, Drew Sanocki, Jacques Spitzer, Jeremy Horowitz, Ryan Moran, Sean Frank, Andrew Youderian, Ryan McKenzie, Joseph Wilkins, Cody Wittick, Miki Agrawal, Justin Brooke, Nish Samantray, Kurt Elster, John Parkes, Chris Mercer, Rabah Rahil, Bear Handlon, JC Hite, Frederick Vallaeys, Preston Rutherford, Anthony Mink, Bill D'Allessandro, Stephane Colleu, Jeff Oxford, Bryan Porter and more

In this video, I break down 3 tactical things you NEED to be doing in 2026 to stay relevant and profitable in real estate investing. If you saw my last video, “The Truth About Real Estate Investing in 2026,” you know the market has already shifted.

In a world where technology and AI are reshaping legal services, simply doing great work is no longer enough. In this episode, you'll learn how leveraging content, personal brand, and community can keep you relevant, visible, and in demand as the market rapidly evolves.   In this episode, Steve Fretzin and Rob Hanna discuss: Health, habits, and intentional self-care for high performers Legal career journey, recruiting, and launching a podcast Thought leadership, content creation, and personal brand for lawyers The rise and power of online and offline communities Technology, AI, and the shifting expectations of legal clients   Key Takeaways: Treat your health as a non-negotiable business asset; intentionally scheduling exercise, sleep, and recovery fuels better performance, energy, and longevity in your career. Content is not a vanity play. It's how you stay visible, demonstrate expertise, and become the “go-to” choice when clients are finally ready to buy. Community gives law firm owners and lawyers a safe space to be seen, heard, and supported, breaking the isolation that comes with leadership and entrepreneurship. Technology and AI are eroding the value of pure grunt work, making human judgment, brand, and community presence more crucial than ever to remain relevant. You don't need to build a massive empire to benefit from community; starting small, with a few peers, a simple WhatsApp group, or light-touch LinkedIn activity, can compound into powerful opportunities over time.   "I've never met anyone who's built a community who's regretted it.” —  Rob Hanna   Check out my new show, Be That Lawyer Coaches Corner, and get the strategies I use with my clients to win more business and love your career again.   Ready to go from good to GOAT in your legal marketing game?

On The Agenda, Hongbin Jeong speaks to Isaac Tng, Founder of SixMoreDays to find out if millennials are trying too hard to “stay relevant”. Once known as the trendsetters, millennials are increasingly being called out for doing things to keep up with the times. In Singapore, where generational expectations and career pressures run high, this tension feels especially familiar. So, is the idea that millennials are “out of touch” actually fair? Or is it just another cycle of generational rivalry playing out online?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How often are you asked to upgrade and order, an experience or even a trip you already have booked? Probably quite often. And while those upgrades often come with a cost, we rarely question them once the foundation of a purchase is in place. The same is true at this stage of life. You're not starting over—you've already built years of experience, skills, and resources.

AI is not just another tool. It's reshaping how you work, how you position yourself, and how you stay relevant in your business. And if you're a coach, consultant, or service-based entrepreneur, the question is no longer if it will impact you… but how you choose to respond. To discuss this topic, I invited Tünde Lukacs, founder of Change Republic and former Big Four partner who led large-scale AI transformation programs across Europe. Today, she helps leaders and professionals redefine their role and identity in the age of AI. You'll get a behind-the-scenes look at how Tünde is using AI in her business from building her own AI coach to creating scalable offers while staying grounded in ethics, trust, and human connection. This episode is both a reality check… and an opportunity. Because the time is now not to compete with AI, but to become more you than ever before. “AI can replace knowledge, but it can't replace your humanity.” What you will learn: How to face the threats of AI and stay relevant as a coach or consultantHow to use AI to elevate your business in terms of productivity and customer experienceHow to handle the ethical and legal aspects of using AI Chapters: [02:20] Tünde's Journey into AI and Coaching [05:25] Concerns and Opportunities for the Next Generation [07:46] Transitioning from Corporate to Coaching [09:17] Overcoming the Leap to Entrepreneurship [11:14] Strategic Launch of a Coaching Business [14:59] Helping Clients Navigate Careers in the AI Age [18:09] The Threats of AI in Professional Services [21:41] Emphasizing Human Experience Over Knowledge [22:35] Defining Your Competitive Advantage [23:34] Embracing AI in Coaching Practices [27:32] Integrating AI into Business Models [36:15] Legal and Ethical Considerations in AI Coaching [41:44] Authenticity in Marketing and Visibility Find this episode on YouTube:  https://youtu.be/3mYkldhc1eA Enjoyed this episode?

This episode unpacks the growing instability across the gaming industry, from the sharp 80% player decline of ARC Raiders to internal shakeups at Epic Games following massive layoffs and executive turnover. We explore how even high-performing live-service titles can struggle to maintain engagement, while broader workforce trends show nearly half of industry professionals considering leaving altogether amid job insecurity and rapid change. On the content side, excitement around rumored releases like Assassin's Creed: Black Flag Resynced highlights the industry's increasing reliance on proven IP to stabilize revenue and player interest. The episode ties it all together with a critical look at sustainability—both for games trying to retain players and for the people building them.0:00 Intro1:39 Updates18:01 Why ARC Raiders' Player Count Is Down 80% https://tinyurl.com/2eabbkyw 27:39 Epic's Head Of HR Is Out https://tinyurl.com/ry25c8ss 35:55 44% of games industry professionals have considered leaving the industry https://tinyurl.com/5eeucnwd 46:09 Assassin's Creed: Black Flag Remake https://tinyurl.com/ye3e74d2 53:06 OutroLEAVE A LIKE and a comment, thanks for watching/listening!-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------PODCAST                ►► https://anchor.fm/m2podcastAMAZON Music         ► https://music.amazon.com/podcasts/091902c3-b83b-487c-8fe7-4c96787434fe/M2-PodcastAPPLE                          ► https://podcasts.apple.com/podcast/id1531832410BREAKER                     ► https://www.breaker.audio/m2-podcast-2CASTRO                       ► https://castro.fm/podcast/6f69d373-d879-46d9-9f1c-bcf7c4bf1741GOOGLE                       ► https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9hbmNob3IuZm0vcy8zNTYwNWZiMC9wb2RjYXN0L3Jzcw==OVERCAST                   ► https://overcast.fm/itunes1531832410/m2-podcastPOCKETCASTS           ► https://pca.st/5jghvf6eRADIOPUBLIC             ► https://radiopublic.com/m2-podcast-GMZkY4SPOTIFY                      ► https://open.spotify.com/show/2VedhO03IRoHERJqF6Sy87STICHER                      ► https://www.stitcher.com/podcast/m2-podcastTUNEIN                        ► http://tun.in/pj3ZI#podcast JOIN THE DISCORD!  ►► https://discord.gg/Kp5Gre6KyleHeath Socials:TIKTOK           ►► https://www.tiktok.com/@mrjkheathTWITCH          ►► https://www.twitch.tv/kyleheathTWITTER        ►► https://twitter.com/mrjkheathYOUTUBE       ►► https://www.youtube.com/MrJkheathMadMikeWillEatU Socials:TIKTOK           ►► https://www.tiktok.com/@madmikewilleatuTWITCH          ►► https://www.twitch.tv/madmikewilleatu/aboutTWITTER        ►► https://twitter.com/madmikewilleatuYOUTUBE       ►► https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1MoIvzyMDvH_5Ta

Work is changing, not ending—what it takes to stay relevant in an AI-driven world.Careers aren't ladders anymore — they're climbing walls. As Aneesh Raman puts it, “work is changing, not ending,” and success today depends on how well you can navigate change and explain your path along the way.Raman is the Chief Economic Opportunity Officer at LinkedIn and a former presidential speechwriter for Barack Obama. His work focuses on the future of work and how individuals can adapt in an AI-driven world. In his book Open to Work, he argues that the most valuable skills today aren't technical — they're human. “We now have this technology that's gonna do more, better, faster… It will out efficiency us,” he explains. But that shift creates opportunity: “When you recognize that humans aren't meant to be machine-like, and that machines will eventually out machine us, that isn't the end state. It's going to be a more entrepreneurial era where we're going to rely on our unique ability to imagine, to invent, to create.”In this episode of Think Fast Talk Smart, Raman and host Matt Abrahams explore what it takes to navigate a rapidly changing workplace. From the “Five C's” to practical ways to redesign your role around human strengths, Raman shares how to stay relevant as work evolves, the power of audience-first communication, and why great storytelling starts with understanding yourself.To listen to the extended Deep Thinks version of this episode, please visit FasterSmarter.io/premium.Episode Reference Links:Aneesh RamanAneesh's Book: Open to Work226.

Don McGuire did not build his career through a straight line. He lost elections as a kid, moved every few years, started over again and again, and had to learn resilience early.

In this episode, Don chats with Ilana about how to stay in control of your career in a world changing at the speed of AI. He shares why resilience matters more than ever, how to spot the right time to leap, and what it takes to stay relevant in a crowded job market. Don McGuire is the Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer of Qualcomm, with over 25 years of experience across service providers, semiconductors, and technology marketing.

Everything around advisors is moving fast, and Patrik Delaney has spent twenty-five years watching the industry shift under their feet.  In this conversation, he and Rebecca dig into what is driving those changes, why traditional education is no longer enough, and how the most successful advisors are learning to inspire behavior rather than just explain it. Pat breaks down how demographic pressure, AI, and participant expectations are reshaping advisory work. More importantly, he explains why the qualities of great coaches, like curiosity, courage, and compassion, may matter more for advisors going forward than technical skill alone.

How To Stay Relevant as a Creative ProfessionalIn this episode, I break down how you can stay relevant as a creative pro in a fast-changing industry where ageism, AI, and commoditization are real forces. If you're a mid-career designer, creative director, strategist, or agency owner, this is about building career insurance that protects you from volatility you can't control.I share the uncomfortable truths many experienced creatives avoid talking about, including what really happens when roles disappear and why doubling down on craft alone is no longer enough. Staying relevant in your creative career is not about chasing the latest tools or working harder. It's about repositioning yourself closer to strategic decision-making, moving toward the “tip of the spear,” and getting paid for how you think, not just what you make .Throughout the episode, I give you practical micro-actions you can take immediately to future-proof your creative career, strengthen your positioning, and expand your strategic network. You'll also learn why relevance is relational, not just informational, and how peer-level dialogue accelerates growth.If you want long-term career resilience as a creative professional, this is where you start.____________________________________WEBSITEhttps://www.philipvandusen.comBONFIRE: Mastermind Community for Creative Proshttps://philipvandusen.com/bonfireBRAND•MUSE NEWSLETTER  https://www.philipvandusen.com/museCREATIVE PROFESSIONAL COACHINGhttps://philipvandusen.com/oneononeYOUTUBEhttps://www.youtube.com/philipvandusenBRAND DESIGN MASTERS PODCAST https://podcast.branddesignmasters.com/subscribeBRAND STRATEGY 101 COURSEhttps://philipvandusen.com/bs101LINKEDINhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/philipvandusen/THREADShttps://www.threads.net/@philipvandusen FACEBOOKhttps://www.facebook.com/philipvandusen.agency/____________________________________Philip VanDusen is a branding consultant based in New York.

In this episode of the HR Leaders Podcast, we sit down with Frederic Patitucci, Chief People & Culture Officer at Philip Morris International, to unpack how one of the world's largest organizations is transforming both its business model and its workforce capabilities at the same time.Frederic explains how PMI's bold shift toward a smoke-free future forced the company to rethink its operating model, moving from a single-product cigarette business to a complex multi-category innovation company spanning consumer technology, healthcare, and new consumer experiences.He shares how this transformation required new skills, new operating structures, and a completely redefined company culture, including codifying the PMI DNA and embedding it directly into hiring, performance management, leadership development, and everyday decision-making.Most importantly, Frederic reveals why the future of HR lies in managing skills instead of jobs, preparing employees for the skills that are rising, and helping people avoid career dead ends before disruption makes those roles obsolete.

Luxury skincare can't just look beautiful anymore. It has to build trust, feel approachable, and actually work. And the brands that can balance all three are the ones that win. Daniel sits down with Blair Lancer, CMO of Lancer Skincare, to unpack how you modernize a legacy beauty brand without losing the clinical credibility and heritage that made it iconic in the first place.

Let's know what you liked and learnt! In the final episode of the Contra Minds Timeless Wisdom series, Swami explores a radical idea from Kumar Vembu: leadership is not a role — it is a continuous act of relevance and reinvention.From building a “zero follow-up” organisation to eliminating full-time managers, Kumar shares how frictionless customer experience begins with frictionless internal culture. Empowerment, ownership, and clarity replace hierarchy, supervision, and anxiety-driven follow-ups.Perhaps the most powerful insight - Kumar “resigns” every night as a CEO — and reappoints himself every morning. This daily reset allows him to detach from past decisions, challenge his own mindset, and ask a hard question: Will I still be relevant five years from today?This episode is not about digital transformation alone. It is about transforming how we think about leadership, employability, and courage in a rapidly changing world.5 Key TakeawaysFriction inside creates friction outside: A seamless customer experience is impossible if teams struggle with internal obstacles.Zero follow-up reduces anxiety-driven management: When ownership is clear and visibility is built into systems, constant status-checking becomes unnecessary.Managers must stay employable: Leadership that loses hands-on capability becomes fragile and often unemployable in the market.Coaches replace controllers: The future of leadership is joint work, front-loaded thinking, and mentoring — not hierarchy.Resign every night to stay relevant: Detachment from past decisions allows leaders to act on emerging realities instead of defending outdated mindsets.

In this inspiring conversation, I sit down with Kathryn Sandford, seasoned personal brand and leadership coach, to explore what it truly means to go from invisible to influential. Kathryn draws on her rich background in teaching, recruitment, and government to show professionals—especially introverts and quiet achievers—how to find their voice, build credibility, and shine without being loud.We talk about the power of energy in communication, why self-trust and self-kindness are the foundations of influence, and how relevance is a muscle we can train at every stage of our careers. Kathryn also shares practical networking tips, storytelling strategies that help you stand out, and the affirmation she lives by: “I am enough.”If you've ever wondered how to navigate career pivots, project confidence without people-pleasing, or become visible in a noisy world while staying true to yourself, this episode will encourage you to take that courageous next step.Episode HighlightsKathryn's introvert–extrovert balance and reframing the idea of a “social butterfly.”Lessons from teaching: energy awareness, clear boundaries, and credibility in communication.The turning point that led Kathryn out of teaching and into leadership coaching.How to pivot careers with courage and strategy, especially later in life.Building a personal brand through self-awareness, storytelling, and reputation.Why asking others to describe you in three words can unlock your strengths.The “relevance muscle” and how to strengthen it for future success.Key TakeawaysEnergy speaks louder than words — how you show up is as important as what you say.Boundaries build trust — being clear and consistent creates credibility and influence.Self-trust is the foundation of leadership — start by believing I am enough.Personal brand = reputation + influence + impact — know your story and tell it well.Relevance is a muscle — it needs ongoing practice, upskilling, and self-reflection.Networking made simple — approach one or three people, never two.Storytelling sets you apart — ordinary stories, told with authenticity, make you memorable.Memorable Quotable“The most powerful thing you can say to yourself is: I am enough.” — Kathryn SandfordResources & LinksConnect with Kathryn Sandford on LinkedIn.Learn  about Kathryn Sandford's programs: Invisible to Influential and 1:1 Leadership Coaching.Follow Serena on LinkedIn. Visit serenalow.com.au for the first step to ending your visibility struggle.Enjoyed this episode?Subscribe to The Quiet Warrior Podcast and leave a 5-star review—it helps us reach even more introverts and quiet achievers who are ready to step into visibility with confidence.This episode was edited by Aura House Productions

Together, they explore how geographic boundaries are fading, why governance and strategic planning must evolve, and what the future of membership really looks like in an increasingly digital world. The conversation dives into career development as a core value proposition, the impact of digital transformation, and the growing expectation that associations deliver relevance across an entire professional lifecycle.

What happens when a kid who didn't speak English and didn't touch a computer until 15 goes on to lead some of the biggest AI and automation programmes in the world? Meet Danilo McGarry — a global AI expert, automation pioneer and digital transformation leader who has worked across organisations like Citigroup, UnitedHealth Group, Royal Bank of Canada and Alter Domus, helping companies redesign how work is done using artificial intelligence. From growing up in Brazil to becoming one of the most recognised voices in AI leadership, Danilo's story is about resilience, obsession with learning, and refusing to accept how things have always been done. In this conversation, we go far beyond buzzwords. We talk about how AI is really being used inside companies, why culture matters more than technology, how automation is reshaping jobs and leadership, and what executives must understand if they want to survive the next decade. We also explore the human side of artificial intelligence — anxiety, burnout, biology, sleep, emotional intelligence, and what it actually means to stay human while machines become more powerful. This is not a hype conversation. This is about execution, responsibility, leadership under pressure, and building a future where AI amplifies people instead of replacing them.We Discuss:00:00 – Danilo McGarry on AI & Leadership03:25 – Danilo's personal story: from Brazil to AI expert12:10 – Using automation to outperform humans in work21:40 – The chaotic banking story & leadership lessons32:15 – Why culture must lead AI adoption42:00 – The 5 pillars of AI transformation58:30 – The biggest myths about AI & singularity1:10:20 – How to manage anxiety in a rapidly changing world1:22:45 – The future of jobs, freelancing & gig economy1:38:10 – The future of hiring: beyond resumes1:50:00 – Why sleep, biology & humanity matter2:00:00 – Danilo's final advice on execution with AIAbout Danilo McGarry: Danilo McGarry is a globally recognised AI expert, automation leader and digital transformation advisor, consistently ranked among the Top 20 Most Influential People in Artificial Intelligence worldwide.

In episode 285 of the Pool Nation Podcast, Edgar De Jesús sits down with leadership expert Leanne De Jesús for an in-depth conversation on how pool business owners, service techs, retailers, and builders can grow without burning out, falling behind, or constantly starting over. What is upskilling? Upskilling means improving and expanding the skills you already use in your role — not changing careers, but getting better, smarter, and more effective at what you're already doing. In the pool industry, upskilling can look like: Developing leadership and people-management skills Improving pricing, financial clarity, and decision-making Learning new equipment, technology, and automation Building sales and customer communication skills Training your team so the business doesn't rely only on you Reskilling, on the other hand, is learning an entirely new role or function — like moving from service into building, retail, or management. Throughout this episode, Edgar and Leanne break down why most frustration, burnout, and leadership struggles aren't people problems — they're skill gaps. They also explain why access to information alone doesn't create better leaders, and how structure, mentorship, and intentional learning are what actually drive growth. Whether you're a one-truck operator or scaling a multi-location business, this conversation will help you: Understand when to upskill vs when to reskill Recognize early signs of burnout and stagnation Build stronger leaders and more accountable teams Create growth without chaos Shift from operator thinking to owner thinking This episode isn't about working harder — it's about thinking differently so your business can grow with clarity and control. ⏱️ Episode Timestamps 00:00 – Welcome to the Pool Nation Podcast 01:05 – Why upskilling and reskilling matter right now 03:00 – Pool Nation events, shows, and upcoming education 06:10 – What upskilling really looks like in real life 09:45 – AI, technology, and staying relevant 13:20 – How pool pros upskill without realizing it 16:10 – The difference between upskilling and reskilling 18:50 – When you should reskill vs improve your current skills 21:40 – Why people think they need to quit when they really need new skills 25:10 – Learning, testing, applying, and sharing knowledge 30:00 – Burnout, overwhelm, and hidden skill gaps 33:10 – Leadership problems vs skill problems 37:20 – Why information alone doesn't create better leaders 40:50 – Time, structure, and intentional learning 44:30 – Sponsor break 46:00 – Upskilling business owners for growth and scale 50:30 – Hiring for skill vs hiring for personality 55:10 – Upskilling pool techs: sales, safety, and trust 1:01:40 – Retail teams, product knowledge, and relationships 1:07:30 – Why training fails without structure 1:12:00 – Train-the-trainer mindset and leadership confidence 1:17:40 – Why guided learning and mentorship matter 1:21:10 – The most important mindset shift: growth mindset 1:26:30 – Final thoughts and takeaways 1:30:00 – Closing remarks and where to find Pool Nation

Highlighting adaptability as a mindset rather than just a skill, he underscores the importance of being able to pivot, adjust, and stay relevant in a rapidly changing marketplace dominated by AI and evolving consumer behaviors. George also explores why people resist change and provides practical tips for becoming more adaptable, including adopting a growth-based identity, making micro pivots, and asking better questions. He emphasizes the value of curiosity, surrounding oneself with innovators, and building optionality into strategies to remain flexible and responsive.

We want your feedback and questions. Text us here.AI isn't replacing leaders, it's redefining leadership. AI can optimize tasks, but it cannot replace influence, empathy, emotional intelligence, or human connection. In this episode, we unpack how the rise of AI is reshaping expectations for leaders and why soft skills are becoming the new hard skills. We discuss the risks leaders face when they over-automate communication, rely too heavily on data, or substitute human presence with digital efficiency. You'll learn how to stay relevant and influential by strengthening the skills AI can't replicate: listening, coaching, vision-casting, emotional intelligence, and authentic connection. If you want to thrive—not just survive—in an AI-driven world, this episode will equip you with the mindset and tools to lead with clarity, confidence, and connection.

When a leader reaches the top, the climb doesn't stop, it just changes shape. The real challenge isn't getting to the corner office, it's knowing how to stay relevant, resilient, and ready for what's next. The best CEOs don't just lead well once; they lead well through change, mastering the cycles of their own growth. In this episode, I sit down with Kurt Strovink, Senior Partner at McKinsey & Company and Global Head of McKinsey's CEO Practice, to break down the cyclical nature of leadership from his book A CEO for All Seasons: Mastering the Cycles of Leadership. Drawing from research on 200 high-performing CEOs, we explore the four seasons of leadership—stepping up, starting strong, staying ahead, and sending it forward—and what distinguishes those who sustain excellence over time. We dive into how cognitive diversity strengthens decision-making, servant leadership keeps power grounded in purpose, and renewal strategies prevent success from breeding complacency. We also explore how great CEOs develop resilience under pressure and create leadership factories that outlast them. This episode offers CHROs a playbook to help leaders evolve through every phase of their journey, and build organizations capable of thriving through every season of change. ------------ Start your day with the world's top leaders by joining thousands of others at Great Leadership on Substack.

There's something broken in the system — and Bryan Kohberger knows exactly how to exploit it. You'd think that after pleading guilty and being sentenced to four consecutive life terms for the murders of Kaylee Goncalves, Madison Mogen, Xana Kernodle, and Ethan Chapin, this case would finally be over. But it's not. Kohberger is still managing to pull the strings from inside his cell — not through violence this time, but through bureaucracy. In October, his defense team filed a motion arguing that he shouldn't have to pay restitution to the victims' families because they received money from GoFundMe. The move outraged the public — but here's the hidden truth: his attorneys probably had no choice. Under Idaho law, court-appointed attorneys like Anne Taylor and her team can't simply walk away once a case is “over.” They're bound by the rules of criminal procedure to continue representing their client until the court formally releases them. And the court almost never does — especially in a case this complex and public. That means every time Kohberger wants to file another motion — no matter how manipulative or hollow it may seem — his attorneys have to sign it. They can advise him not to, but if he insists, and it's not illegal or frivolous, they're obligated to comply. So what we're seeing isn't greed. It's a broken system that traps everyone: lawyers forced to act as mouthpieces for a killer, taxpayers forced to keep footing the bill, and families forced to relive the case every time his name shows up on a docket. This episode of Hidden Killers exposes how a justice system built to guarantee fairness ends up being hijacked by the very people it's supposed to contain — and how Bryan Kohberger, even behind bars, is still finding ways to exert control. Because sometimes, evil doesn't end when the sentence is handed down. It just changes form. #BryanKohberger #IdahoMurders #HiddenKillers #TrueCrimePodcast #KayleeGoncalves #MadisonMogen #XanaKernodle #EthanChapin #JusticeSystem #CrimeAnalysis Want to comment and watch this podcast as a video?

Summary In this episode, Andy interviews Matt Mong, a leader at PlanAutomate, a company focused on bringing intelligent automation to the world of project management. With AI dominating headlines, Matt joins the podcast to explore what's real, what's hype, and what project managers and frontline leaders should actually be doing to stay ahead. They discuss common misconceptions about AI in projects, why structured data is critical, and how AI can evolve from productivity booster to strategic game-changer. Matt shares practical advice on balancing innovation with data privacy, how project roles may shift over time, and what leaders can do today to prepare ourselves (and even our kids) for the future of work. If you're looking for insights on how to stay relevant in an AI-transformed workplace, this episode is for you! Sound Bites “The real question isn't just what AI can do faster. It's what it can do that we couldn't do before.” “We tend to overestimate what AI will do in two years and underestimate what it will do in ten.” “If you don't get your data in order, AI won't be useful. It's as simple as that.” “This isn't about eliminating jobs. It's about empowering people to lead and collaborate better.” “Don't future-proof your job. Prepare for the future by experimenting and adapting.” “What if your projects could talk to you and give ongoing guidance? That's where we're heading.” Chapters 00:00 Introduction 02:00 Start of Interview 02:06 What's Something About AI or Projects That Drives You Crazy? 05:00 How Are You Personally Using AI at Work or Home? 07:00 How Are Customers Using AI Today?
