A live SXSW panel on how employee complaints illuminate the path to organizational innovation.Wrong question: How can AI revolutionize productivity in my organization?Right question: What do my employees hate most about their jobs?For the Portland Trail Blazers, a winning game plan for AI implementation didn't begin with a tech-first approach — it began with a talk-first one. “The whole concept was to talk about pain points," explains David Long, VP of Digital Innovation, describing the "Lunch and Launch" sessions where employees could openly share frustrations about their daily work. “People really enjoy talking about what they hate about their jobs,” says Christa Stout, Executive Vice President and Chief Strategy & Innovation Officer, and as they did, they illuminated opportunities for optimization. “By getting this insight across the whole company, it is already opening our eyes [to how] we can potentially transform the business more broadly,” Stout says.In this special live episode of Think Fast, Talk Smart, recorded at SXSW, host Matt Abrahams leads a panel with Long, Stout, and Stanford colleague Jeremy Utley, exploring how "catharsis catalyzes change.” For any team wanting to implement new technology or rethink workflows, these experts reveal how creating space for complaints can catalyze meaningful innovation throughout an organization.Episode Reference Links:Jeremy UtleyDavid LongChrista StoutEp.77 Quick Thinks: AI Has Entered The Chat – A "Conversation" with ChatGPTEp.134 How to Chat with Bots: The Secrets to Getting the Information You Need from AI Connect:Premium Signup >>>> Think Fast Talk Smart PremiumEmail Questions & Feedback >>> hello@fastersmarter.ioEpisode Transcripts >>> Think Fast Talk Smart WebsiteNewsletter Signup + English Language Learning >>> FasterSmarter.ioThink Fast Talk Smart >>> LinkedIn, Instagram, YouTubeMatt Abrahams >>> LinkedInChapters:(00:00) - Introduction (04:42) - The Business Behind Basketball (06:13) - Why AI and Why Now?

What if the key to innovation isn't a process, but a mindset that travels across boundaries, disciplines, and decades? From international development to McKinsey to leading AI strategy at Microsoft, Dean Carignan has built his career at the intersection of systems, people, and impact. Now, as co-author of The Insider's Guide to Innovation at Microsoft, he's helping organizations rethink how real innovation happens, not just in startups or labs, but in legacy institutions and global companies. In this episode, Dean shares lessons from two decades at Microsoft, where he's worked across Xbox, Office, cognitive services, and AI research. He also reflects on why innovation is ultimately about people, not products, and how leaders can create space for meaningful change, even inside complex organizations. We explore: How Dean moved from solving global problems at the World Bank to driving change inside one of the world's largest tech companies The power of being a “boundary crosser” and why innovation happens in the in-between Why mission often outperforms money as a motivator, especially in hiring for impact The overlooked value of storytelling in innovation (and how case studies bring ideas to life) How AI is transforming not only productivity, but the very nature of scientific discovery Why learning to build with agents may be the most valuable skill of the next decade Dean also shares practical examples of how he uses AI today, from research to writing to daily decision-making, and why “thinking about thinking” is the leadership advantage most people overlook. Whether you're guiding a team through change, building a new product, or trying to stay ahead of the AI curve, this conversation offers a grounded, human-centered approach to innovation in a time of exponential possibility. Dean Carignan's career spans international economic development, startup ventures, and strategic roles in technology. He is an alumnus of Georgetown University and INSEAD, he was a charter member of McKinsey & Company's advanced technology practice. During his 20 years at Microsoft, he has guided new businesses, including the early internet division, Xbox, and multiple Al efforts through the critical growth phases to their first billion dollars in revenue.

This isn't a distant trend; it's happening now, and it demands your attention. We explore how these future lawyers are already operating differently. You'll hear firsthand about their strong preference for the Google ecosystem – and why that directly impacts your firm's current reliance on tools like Microsoft Word.

The professors don't mince words: a lack of understanding in this area will directly impact your ability to serve clients effectively. In a world swimming in digital data, from car sensors to smart devices, your firm's relevance depends on it.

Recruiting Future is a podcast designed to help Talent Acquisition teams drive measurable impact by developing strategic capability in Foresight, Influence, Talent, and Technology. This episode is about talent and technology. Many employers are facing an increasing problem with candidates' use of AI. Along with dramatically increasing application numbers, AI tools are, in some cases, allowing potentially unsuitable candidates to jump to the front of the queue, endangering the integrity of the recruiting process. One potential answer to this challenge is to deploy science-based psychometric testing much earlier in the process than has traditionally been the case. So, how should assessment tools and technologies evolve to combine scientific robustness, candidate engagement, and resilience against AI manipulation My guest this week is Alan Bourne, Partner at Omatti and an expert in assessment innovation. Alan highlights the issues with legacy assessment tools and sets out a blueprint for transformation that embraces AI to enhance both the candidate experience and the predictive accuracy of the tools. We also discuss the role of assessment in the move to skills organisations. In the interview, we discuss: The real impact of candidates using AI Why resumes & interviews are the least effective and least fair way of assessment Defensive proctoring versus proactive innovation Using AI to develop immersive, simulation-based assessments Getting the right balance between science and engagement The progress of skills-based hiring The danger of just replacing experience-based CVs with experience-based skills What will the future look like?

As artificial intelligence (AI) transforms modern life, we're understanding more about the benefits and tradeoffs of its use in generating content. New alum Paul Kim wrote his master's thesis about how generative AI (genAI) perpetuates false narratives about Asian and Pacific Islander Americans (APIA), and how communities can use genAI to reclaim those narratives.In this episode, producer Willa Seidenberg talks with Paul about his thesis, Encoding Counter Memories: Artificial Intelligence as a Tool for APIA Community Empowerment.

Episode Summary What if AI isn't a threat but the biggest business opportunity we've seen in decades? In this game-changing episode, we reframe the fear of artificial intelligence into one of the biggest business opportunities freelance writers and solo marketers have ever seen. If you've been worried about how AI will affect your work, this conversation will help you step into a new mindset. The kind of mindset where you become more valuable, more strategic, and more productive than ever before. We're diving into how to reinvent your business model, amplify your impact, and create a competitive advantage that's nearly impossible to replicate — all by embracing a Human+AI approach that plays to your greatest strengths. What You'll Learn How to shift from an execution-focused freelancer to a strategic conductor The mindset required to make AI your most powerful creative and business partner Techniques for using AI as your intellectual sparring partner How to multiply your output (and quality!) without burning out A 30-day action plan to start reinventing your business with AI Key Takeaways The Writing Market Is Splitting. Which Side Are You On? AI is rapidly commoditizing low-value content creation. But high-value strategic thinking, creative leadership, and judgment are more valuable than ever. The opportunity lies in evolving from order-taker to advisor and conductor. From someone who orchestrates both human and AI resources to deliver better business outcomes. Using AI as Your Intellectual Sparring Partner Don't just ask AI to write; use it to challenge, debate, and refine your thinking. Set up “Socratic dialogues” with AI to pressure-test your ideas and sharpen your message. This collaborative thinking accelerates originality and gives you a massive edge in producing world-class content and strategy. Become a 10X Writer Without Working 10X Harder AI can help you eliminate bottlenecks in idea generation, drafting, editing, and repurposing. Build workflows that multiply your content from one core idea into email series, blog posts, videos, and tools. Done right, this creates a virtuous cycle of authority, visibility, and client opportunities—all at scale. Build a Competitive Moat AI Can't Cross Three elements make you irreplaceable in the age of AI: Domain Expertise – Lived experience and niche insights AI can't replicate. Relationship Capital – The trust, empathy, and collaboration clients crave. Strategic Judgment – The ability to see the big picture, make smart calls, and tie everything together. Leverage these with AI to create proprietary workflows and systems that clients can't easily replace. Your 30-Day Action Plan Audit Your Role – Are you mostly executing, or adding unique value that AI can't? Run These Experiments: Idea Validation – Use AI to stress-test a concept you're working on. Content Multiplication – Take a single piece of content and repurpose it 5 ways. Custom AI System – Create a lightweight AI prompt system tailored to one client or use case. Communicate the Evolution – Help your clients understand that you're not just using AI—you're delivering stronger outcomes, faster and more strategically. Listener Challenge Pick one of the three AI experiments above and commit to testing it this week. Then reflect: What did you learn? What new opportunities did this unlock? How could this change how you deliver value to your clients? Want to Go Deeper? If this episode sparked something in you and you're ready to turn AI into your strategic advantage, join me for my upcoming AI Advantage Bootcamp for Writers and Solo Marketers. This is a hands-on, 4-week program designed to help you harness AI in your creative and business workflows. Whether you're just getting started or already using AI but want to sharpen your edge, you'll walk away with systems and results, not just theory. . Spots are limited, and this program sells out fast. If it feels like the right next step for you, don't wait. Final Thought The future doesn't belong to those who fear change. It belongs to those who harness it with purpose. AI can be the start of your next-level impact. What are you going to do with that opportunity?

In this post-RSAC 2025 Brand Story, Marco Ciappelli catches up with Steve Schlarman, Senior Director of Product Management at Archer, to discuss the evolving intersection of GRC, AI, and business value. From regulatory overload to AI-enhanced policy generation, this conversation explores how meaningful innovation—grounded in real customer needs—is shaping the future of risk and compliance.Not All AI Is Created Equal: The Archer ApproachRSAC 2025 was buzzing with innovation, but for Steve Schlarman and the Archer team, it wasn't about showing off shiny new toys—it was about proving that AI, when used with purpose and context, can truly enhance the risk and compliance function.Steve, Senior Director of Product Management at Archer, breaks down how Archer Evolve and the recent integration of Compliance.ai are helping organizations address regulatory change in a more holistic, automated, and scalable way. With silos still slowing down many companies, the need for tools that actually do something is more urgent than ever.From Policy Generation to Risk NarrativesOne of the most practical applications discussed? Using AI not just to detect risk, but to help write better risk statements, control documentation, and even policy language that actually communicates clearly. Steve explains how Archer is focused on closing the loop between data and business impact—translating technical risk outputs into narratives the business can actually act on.AI with a Human TouchAs Marco notes, AI in cybersecurity has moved from hype to hesitation to strategy. Steve is candid: some customers are still on the fence. But when AI is delivered in a contextual way, backed by customer-driven innovation, it becomes a bridge—not a wedge—between people and process. The key is not AI for the sake of AI, but for solving real, grounded problems.What's Next in Risk? Better ConversationsLooking ahead, Schlarman sees a shift from “no, we can't” to “yes, and here's how.” With a better grasp on loss exposure and control costs, the business conversation is changing. AI-powered storytelling and smart interfaces might just help risk teams have their most effective conversations yet.From regulatory change to real-time translation of risk data, this is where tech meets trust.⸻Guest: Steve Schlarman, Senior Director, Product Management, Archert | https://www.linkedin.com/in/steveschlarman/ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from Archer: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/archerLearn more and catch more stories from RSA Conference 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/rsac25______________________Keywords:steve schlarman, marco ciappelli, rsac2025, archer evolve, compliance.ai, regulatory change, grc, risk management, ai storytelling, cybersecurity, compliance, brand story, rsa conference, cybersecurity strategy, risk communication, ai in compliance, automation, contextual ai, integrated risk management, business risk narrative, itspmagazine______________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

We've all heard the hype about AI, but what's actually happening behind the scenes? In this episode, Blythe breaks down two major studies that reveal how marketers are really using AI tools, where they're struggling, and what's coming next. If you're trying to figure out what to adopt (and what to ignore), this episode offers a blueprint for smart AI integration without the slop. Key takeaways: Only 17% of marketing teams have fully integrated AI into their workflows. 65% of marketers say research and ideation are still the most time-consuming tasks. You can use anonymized meeting notes to supercharge FAQ pages and ad campaigns. Tools like Grok and ChatGPT Projects have helped reduce research time from 6 hours to 2. AI is best used as a co-pilot, not the sole driver of your content strategy.Note: In this episode, Blythe references "Gemma" a lot. Like, a lot, a lot. But it's actually GAMMA.

The Do One Better! Podcast – Philanthropy, Sustainability and Social Entrepreneurship
In this compelling episode, Vishal Sunil, Co-Founder and CTO of Rocket Learning, offers a nuanced and forward-looking perspective on the intersection of artificial intelligence and early childhood education in India. Rocket Learning, a social impact organization working with over 3.2 million students across 10 Indian states, is radically transforming how foundational learning is delivered to underserved communities. The organization's vision is to ensure that every child, particularly those aged 0 to 6, reaches their full potential by empowering both caregivers and early childhood educators through scalable, tech-enabled interventions. Central to Rocket Learning's success is its deep integration with India's vast public daycare infrastructure, the anganwadi system. These centers, which serve a majority of the country's early learners, were historically under-resourced and underutilized for educational purposes. Rocket Learning is spearheading efforts to convert anganwadi workers into effective early childhood educators, a mission now backed at the national level through initiatives such as “Poshan Bhi Padhai Bhi” — a government campaign that integrates nutrition with learning and is supported by a significant financial commitment. What sets Rocket Learning apart is its product philosophy: pragmatic, accessible, and deeply embedded in community. Rather than building flashy new platforms, the organization leverages ubiquitous tools like WhatsApp to facilitate parent-child and teacher-child engagement. Their pedagogy prioritizes social reinforcement by fostering community-based learning environments, where shared participation amplifies motivation and adoption. By rejecting highly individualized and gamified approaches in favor of communal learning, they offer an alternative paradigm rooted in behavioral science and cultural context. The discussion takes a particularly insightful turn as Sunil introduces Appu, Rocket Learning's new voice-based, AI-powered tutor developed in collaboration with Google.org. Appu is not merely a chatbot, but a human-centric educational interface designed to engage children in two-minute voice conversations tailored to their learning level, interests, and local context. The system is engineered with a guardrail framework — ensuring safety, consistency, and pedagogical alignment — while still offering dynamic, personalized experiences. This form of “guided discovery” allows children to learn through everyday interactions, and it encourages parents to participate actively in the process, thereby reinforcing learning through familial bonding. Multilingualism, minimal screen time, and culturally responsive design are at the core of Appu's development. The tool is already operational in several Indian languages and can be quickly adapted to new linguistic and regional contexts, with the ambition of one day serving learners globally. Importantly, Rocket Learning is not just interested in innovation for its own sake. As Sunil notes, the organization is committed to rigorous evidence-building. Their forthcoming randomized controlled trial, conducted in partnership with J-PAL, will offer critical insights into the impact of AI tutors on early childhood learning outcomes — potentially shaping global policy and philanthropy in this domain. Sunil's personal journey, from a data scientist in the United States to a purpose-driven social entrepreneur in India, is emblematic of a new generation of technologists who view scale not just as a metric, but as a moral imperative. His reflections are deeply grounded in the lived experiences of Rocket Learning's users — parents who sacrifice convenience for their child's future, and educators who evolve from caretakers to catalysts of cognitive development.
