We're not dreaming about a finish line—we're designing our next chapter. In this conversation with trailblazer Anne Chow (former CEO of AT&T Business, board director, author of Lead Bigger), we unpack “rewirement”: the smarter, saner, more sovereign way to approach life after (and beyond) traditional work. What we get into: The origin story of “rewirement” (engineer-brain meets real-life evolution) How to reflect with brutal honesty: strengths, energy-giving work, environments you thrive in, and the ones you loathe The unsexy (but essential) life needs: money, healthcare, caregiving, and lifestyle non-negotiables Why your research + seed-planting should start before you exit (network while your platform is loud) Building a portfolio life (boards, teaching, books, consulting, play) and letting serendipity do its thing Identity shifts after big titles—how to navigate the “who am I without the logo?” wobble Community > everything: social connection as a longevity strategy Partner alignment: designing a shared vision (and yes, more time together can be… an adjustment) The metrics that actually matter: joy and fulfillment (not just status and spreadsheets) Retirement isn't the end—it's your next evolution. This is your permission slip to stop chasing finish lines and start rewiring for joy, fulfillment, and a life that actually feels like yours.

Anne Chow, the former CEO of AT&T Business, shares a new approach to inclusive leadership that goes beyond DEI.

Anne Chow: Lead Bigger Anne Chow was the CEO of AT&T Business and the first woman of color CEO in AT&T's 140+ year history, responsible for leading a $35B global operating unit of over 35,000 people. She was named to Fortune's Most Powerful Women in Business twice and today serves on a number of boards, including FranklinCovey, 3M, and CSX. She is the author of Lead Bigger: The Transformative Power of Inclusion. We all know the importance of values, but it's often hard to know where to begin when clarifying them with a team. In this conversation, Anne and I explore how to align on values that support a great culture and move towards a vision. Key Points Values and ideologies are distinct. Leading bigger means honoring diverse ideologies while aligning on core values. Bigger leaders have the courage to admit and cite situations where they fall short. When asking people to craft values, invite them to start by individually considering their personal values. When discussing values as a group, highlight both the common agreements and also the outlying ideas. Leaders must ultimately decide which values best embody the culture and vision of their organization. Bring in different stakeholders to do a gut check on whether the values are legitimate. Measure behaviors against values and review and update values and metrics regularly.

Kybernetických útoků na firmy přibývá. Podniky přesto v mnohých případech začínají dbát na svoji ochranu až ve chvíli, kdy je pozdě. Takový přístup může nejen poničit reputaci firem na trhu, ale negativně se projeví také v jejich hospodaření, skrze náklady na nápravu škod. Ty závisí na velikosti útoku i množství lidí, kteří se musejí věnovat řešení problémů. „Společnost musí například zaplatit svým dodavatelům technologií, kteří uvedou věci do původního stavu. Stojí jí to platby za přesčasy vlastních zaměstnanců, kteří musejí leckdy pracovat i o víkendu. Existuje velké množství nepřímých nákladů, které ani nelze spočítat,“ konstatuje v podcastu HN Zdeněk Grmela, šéf kyberbezpečnosti ve společnosti T-Mobile, konkrétně její divizi T-Business, která radí firemním zákazníků.

Our featured guest is Trae Watlington, head of integrated strategy for AT&T Business at BBDO Worldwide.We may have Matthew McConaughey to thank for Trae Watlington's contributions to advertising and branding. After seeing a movie where the actor portrayed an ad executive, Trae realized that advertising might just be the coolest job out there (he's not wrong). He later went to school for advertising and public relations but then his career unexpectedly changed direction. Despite interning at agencies of all sizes in his early post grad years, Trae later landed a branding position that brought all of his favorite parts of advertising together. Now, Trae has come full circle and continues to infuse innovation into building brands from scratch, renovating existing brand architectures, and everything in between with the help of integrated strategy! Get excited because this episode is more than just alright, alright, alright. Guest Bio:Branding used to mean something very different to Trae, having grown up with a family who owned farmland in his native state of Texas. This “son of a preacher and a teacher” observed countless great examples of emotional intelligence at home. Since then he has found creative ways to lead teams to success simply by treating people how he would want to be treated. When he's not spending quality time with his wife and children, Trae can likely be found having a blast at a Garth Brooks concert.Key Takeaways:We discuss the blurred lines between branding and advertising into today's multi-channel marketplace. Trae teaches us about integrated strategy and why its key for making branding and advertising successful. Want to keep cross-departmental yet interconnected goals moving forward smoothly? Trae tells us how. We gab about how emotional intelligence plays into branding both on a business and on a personal level. We learn how Trae brings humanity into his leadership style.

In the recent study sponsored by Dubber and AT&T Business, conducted by Incisiv, we learned that the majority of enterprise leadership participating identified major gaps over the last 2 years as it pertained to supporting a hybrid work model, previously not as predominant.  Now that it's obvious a dispersed workforce will remain in place going forward, these gaps must be closed for businesses to attain profitability and sustained growth. In Part 2 of this 4 part series focused on the ‘Future of Work', we will discuss with Adrian Di Pietrantonio, Dubber's EVP of Global Platforms & Partners, what top challenges surfaced in this research, the most pressing organizational gaps that must be addressed, and what role Conversational Intelligence plays in addressing these critical issues.

I caught up with Sarita Rao, President of Integrated & Partner Solutions at AT&T Business, to talk about her new role, and the always-changing, ever-evolving technology ecosystem. Last time I spoke with Sarita back in April 2019 at the RSA security conference in San Francisco, she was in a very different role, so we kicked off with Sarita giving us a brief outline of her current role, one she's held for over a year now as President, Integrated & Partner Solutions for AT&T Business, and some of the key focus areas the role entails. We then discuss 5G and the amazing applications it has and will bring us, and in particular how 5G is just part of the bigger picture. Sarita shares her thoughts around why business leaders need to be looking at the whole ecosystem of Devices, IoT sensors, cloud-based solutions, all the way through to edge computing, and how all of these components are part of the “tech ecosystem” puzzle. We delve into what the phrase “tech ecosystem” means in Saritas' world, and what the essential components of that ecosystem actually are. Sarita also shares where she see parts of this particular ecosystem being overlooked, and what are business leaders missing in her view. I also ask Sarita how can business leaders should go about getting into the mindset of thinking about this ecosystem, rather than individual technologies, and how do the can get out of what in effect is often akin to having tunnel vision. We then look at how business leaders can ensure all the moving parts in their ecosystem will work together. We also talk about some of the business applications that this “tech ecosystem” Sarita speaks of now makes possible, such as Virtual Reality aka VR, and Augmented Reality aka AR, which are often see as being “just a few years away” it seems like, and yet we're already seeing more uptake now than ever, so I ask Sarita “is this the year this tech finally comes of age?”. Sarita goes on to share some examples of applications for VR and AR she and her team are seeing currently, such as enhancing customer experience aka CX, through to on-the-job training and many exciting innovations in between. Further to that, Sarita delves into what technologies do businesses need to take advantage of VR and AR. And finally, we wrap up with what Sarita sharing her views on what she and her team are seeing in the tech ecosystem, and what trends businesses should be focused on for a more successful 2022.

https://www.linkedin.com/in/ramrkumar/ (Ram R. Kumar, Executive Director, AT&T Business, )discusses at length significant cybersecurity governance issues, from achieving inter-and intra-organizational buy-in to employee empowerment, education and training, integration of security and development teams, vendor selection and monitoring, and more. Mr. Kumar also speaks to the operational realities and dilemma of speed vs safety and ethics vs loyalty. Memorable Ram Kumar Quotes/Statements It all starts at the top. The C-Suite must make cybersecurity an integral part of organizational strategic plans and priorities. Leadership commitment is a must, and it all starts from there. Leaders must commit to Security First mindset and not security as an afterthought. A cybersecurity governance model that starts and ends with CIS0/IT function is no longer enough. It is time to break down the barriers between IT, Security, and Operations, through education, collaboration, and outreach. It is tempting to think that cybersecurity is a technical issue. Throwing tools will not solve the problem. Emphasize ethics over loyalty. Business unit heads think security is the job of the CISO or IT function because they have work to do and are more focused on achieving their operational targets. They are not in the business of securing data and applications. But that doesn't mean that security can be a secondary play. Timestamps 1:35 – How do you get inter and intra-organizational buy-in for cybersecurity management? 7:14 – How do you get employees to recognize and commit to their respective roles in protecting critical data and other strategic assets? 19:04 – How do you effectively deal with the apparent conflict between the security team and the solutions development team? 30:44 – What kind of collaboration agreements can be put in place where even the third-party service providers have a stake in the game? 46:21 – Is there anything else that you wish to discuss?
