Happy Friday, everyone! I've been sitting on some of these topics for a few weeks because it actually took me a couple weeks to process the implications of it all. There's no more denying what's been happening quietly behind closed doors. This week, I'm tackling the AI layoff tsunami that's making landfall. It's not a future prediction. It's already here. CEOs are openly bragging about replacing people with AI, and most employees still believe it won't affect them. But the real problem goes deeper than the layoffs. It's our blindness to the complexity of each other's work.I'll also touch on some real-world failures already emerging from rushed AI rollouts. We're not just betting big on unproven tech; we're already paying the price.With that, let's get to it.⸻CEOs Are Bragging About AI LayoffsIt's no longer whispers in the break room or rumors over lunch. Top executives are going public with their aggressive plans to eliminate jobs and replace them with AI. I explain why this shift from silence to PR spin means the decisions are already made. I'll also cover what that means for employees, HR teams, and leaders trying to stay ahead. If you think your company or your job is “different,” you need to hear this.⸻Our Biggest Vulnerability in the Age of AIBill Gates' recent comments highlight our greatest AI risk. Everyone thinks other people's jobs can be automated, but not theirs. This blind spot is the quiet fuel behind reckless automation strategies and poor tech deployments. I walk through the mindset that's making us more fragile, not more future-ready, and what it takes to lead with discernment in a world obsessed with efficiency.⸻The AI Disasters Have BegunMcDonald's just exposed sensitive candidate data. Workday is facing a lawsuit over AI-driven hiring bias. And companies are already walking back failed AI rollouts, albeit quietly. Some of the fastest-growing companies are focused on cleaning up the messes. I unpack what's gone wrong, the risks most leaders are ignoring, and how to avoid the same mistakes before you end up in cleanup mode.⸻If this one hit close to home, don't keep it to yourself. Share it with someone who needs to hear it. Leave a review, drop a comment, and follow for weekly updates that help you lead with clarity, not chaos.—Show Notes:In this Future-Focused Weekly Update, Christopher exposes the hard truth behind the latest wave of AI-driven layoffs. He starts with a breakdown of the public statements now coming from CEOs across industries, signaling that the era of AI replacements isn't on the horizon; it's here. From there, he tackles the underlying mindset problem that's leaving teams vulnerable to poor decisions: the belief that others' jobs are expendable while ours are immune. Finally, he dissects early AI failures already creating reputational and operational risk, offering practical insight for leaders navigating the minefield of digital transformation.Timestamps:00:00 - Introduction and Welcome00:50 - Today's Rundown: AI and Workforce Layoffs02:13 - CEOs Publicly Announce AI Layoffs19:25 - Bill Gates on the Future of Coding33:56 - Real-World Examples of AI Risks42:22 - Final Thoughts and Call to Action#AILayoffs #CEOsAndAI #DigitalLeadership #AIethics #HumanCenteredTech #FutureOfWork #McDonaldsAI #WorkdayLawsuit #AIstrategy #FutureFocused

In this episode, J.D. Whitlock, Chief Information Officer at Dayton Children's Hospital, discusses how a smaller pediatric health system is embracing digital transformation and generative AI while navigating resource constraints. Mr. Whitlock shares how platforms like Epic, Workday, and Microsoft are enabling innovation from within, especially through features like ambient documentation and coding assistance. With a fast-follower mindset, Dayton Children's focuses on adopting proven tools from peer organizations rather than being the first to experiment. Mr. Whitlock emphasizes the importance of balancing hard ROI with softer benefits such as improving physician satisfaction and reducing burnout. He also discusses the challenges of innovation in pediatric care, where many AI tools are still designed with adult medicine in mind. From building data infrastructure to enabling smarter imaging through a vendor-neutral archive, Mr. Whitlock highlights the importance of governance, strategic procurement, and cross-functional collaboration in delivering sustainable innovation. Take a listen.

Episode SummaryChris Varela didn't find creative ops. It found him—twice.The first time, he realized the work he was already doing had a name: solving friction between marketing and creative, protecting his teammates' time, and building systems that made the entire process more efficient, more effective—and frankly, more fun for everyone involved.The second time, his company realized it too. After years of Chris operating without a title—quietly translating between functions and elevating how work flowed—Workday came to the conclusion that this wasn't just helpful. It was a role. A needed one.In this episode, Chris and Nish explore how creative ops functions often start unofficially—through the instincts, empathy, and persistence of people like Chris. They also dig into how titles unlock collaboration, how AI is helping scale creative ops work, and how others can navigate that same journey of recognition.This episode is a guide for anyone who suspects they're doing something important—but unrecognized. And for anyone who wants to help their org see the work more clearly.Key TakeawaysYou might be doing creative ops already—whether or not your org (or you) knows it yet.Often, people recognize the impact before they recognize the role.Operating between marketing and creative is messy—but that's where value is created.Getting a title doesn't change the work. But it does change who asks for your help.Chris's story is a blueprint for turning invisible influence into visible leadership.Sometimes the first step in creative ops is helping your org recognize the role—by showing the impact you've already made.From Listening to Thinking: Is It Time to Name the Role You're Already In?Use these prompts to reflect solo—or open up space with your team:Are you doing creative ops work—but calling it something else?If your org had to describe your value in one sentence, would they get it right?What's one system or workflow you've shaped—even if unofficially?Who could benefit if your work was more visible, more named, more understood?How could your story help others name their own role—or help your org see what's missing?Guest: Chris Varela, PMP | Manager, Marketing and Creative Operations at WorkdayChris Varela didn't set out to lead creative ops—he just kept solving the right problems. First, he realized he was already doing the work. Then, over time, his organization came to the same conclusion.In this episode, he joins Nish to unpack the hidden path into creative operations—and what it looks like to help your company understand the role only after you've already been living it.

Nearly a year into his CFO role at Reltio, James Redfern still feels like he's catching up. “I've made some progress, but I'm definitely not where I… need to get,” he tells us. That steep learning curve was exactly what drew him to the company.Redfern didn't find the Reltio opportunity through recruiters. Instead, it surfaced during a casual conversation with a mentor. “I was actually looking at something else,” he recalls. “And he said, ‘Oh, if you're looking… I'm on the board of a company that's looking for a CFO.'” That kind of personal connection—what Redfern calls “psychic safety”—has guided his last two career moves. It's less about who you know casually, he tells us, and more about “people you actually have worked with.”At Reltio, Redfern stepped out of his comfort zone. After years in application-layer software companies like Workday and PayScale, he shifted into deep IT infrastructure. Reltio's platform ensures enterprise data is clean and consistent across systems—a need made more urgent by the rise of AI. “You need a reliable, unified view of your data,” he explains. “One customer equals one customer—not three different customers in three different systems.”With 190 customers and $160 million in annual recurring revenue, Reltio works with some of the world's largest enterprises. The company's mission, Redfern tells us, is to replace legacy systems like Informatica and IBM with cloud-native data unification at scale.For Redfern, the attraction wasn't the title. It was the challenge. “This is the kind of journey I committed myself to,” he says.

Ani Obermeier is a Board Advisor at WorkBuzz, a company that provides real-time employee feedback and engagement solutions for organizations with deskless, hybrid, and remote workforces. She brings over 15 years of experience in technology marketing, having held leadership roles at companies like Workday and Peakon. Currently, Ani serves as Chief Marketing Officer at Quinyx, where she leads strategic marketing initiatives to drive business growth. In this episode… Cutting through the noise is one of the greatest challenges for modern B2B brands. In industries crowded with similar offerings and endless noise, what actually makes one company stand out over another? Is it product features, pricing, or something more human? According to Ani Obermeier, a seasoned marketing strategist and board-level advisor, the true differentiator is trust built through authentic, emotionally resonant communication. She highlights that most B2B companies focus too much on themselves while ignoring the human decision-makers on the other end. Instead of obsessing over competitors, Ani urges brands to listen deeply to their buyers, speak their language, and focus on building long-term relationships. In doing so, businesses not only differentiate but also stay relevant in markets where feature parity is the norm. In this episode of the Revenue Engine Podcast, host Alex Gluz sits down with Ani Obermeier, Board Advisor at WorkBuzz, to talk about building trust and standing out in saturated markets. They explore how to unify sales and marketing teams under a single go-to-market strategy, why authenticity beats automation, and what makes messaging truly connect. Ani also shares how cultural nuance shapes global marketing success.

In today's Cloud Wars Minute, I break down the latest growth rankings among the top 10 cloud providers, highlight Google Cloud's continued lead, and show how legacy giants like Oracle and SAP are rapidly transforming into cloud powerhouses.Highlights00:15 — I wanted to share with you the latest numbers for the Cloud Wars Growth Chart, where we take a look at the growth rates of the Cloud Wars Top 10 companies. Google Cloud holds on to the number one spot. But SAP and Oracle are breathing down Google Cloud's neck. Google Cloud grew in its most recent quarter by 28%, with revenue of $12.3 billion.00:51 — Tied for second place are these two so-called legacy companies. Both grew in their most recent quarters by 27%. SAP's cloud revenue is now $5.3 billion, Oracle's $6.7 billion. Next quarter, it is likely that Oracle could well be number one on this list. But that's all the future, and we will see how that goes.01:42 — In fourth place is Microsoft, 20% growth rate on $42.4 billion in revenue. ServiceNow grew 19% as it cracked $3 billion for the first time in a quarter. AWS, 17% — $29.3 billion. Similar to what we said about Microsoft: 17% growth rate on almost $30 billion in revenue is very impressive.03:00 — Workday, up almost 14%, to $2.1 billion. Salesforce at 8%, $9.8 billion. Snowflake, up 26% to $997 million. I'm not placing Snowflake within the regular run until its quarterly revenue exceeds $1 billion. It's extremely likely that next quarter, we'll see Snowflake take its place in the regular run of companies. IBM does not report its cloud revenue anymore. I hope IBM will change that policy.04:22 — It's fascinating to see a purely built-for-the-cloud company, Google Cloud, in the number one spot. And who's behind it? Two venerable companies — mostly still in the software business completely for SAP — but Oracle now, in addition to its fast-growing cloud software business, also has a hypergrowth cloud infrastructure business.

Research recently published by Workday found that 65% of small business leaders in the UK and Ireland have already started using Artificial Intelligence, unlocking more than 850 extra hours per year. With AI giving small and medium sized businesses a much-needed productivity boost, are we on the cusp of creating a more competitive business landscape, where size is no longer a barrier to success? Join Ben Carter, Workday's VP of Emerging Enterprises, as he explores this topic with Andrew Sandiford and Richard Copthorne from Bishop Fleming.

Today, we're joined by Vijoy Pandey, SVP and general manager at Outshift by Cisco to discuss a foundational challenge for the enterprise: how do we make specialized agents from different vendors collaborate effectively? As companies like Salesforce, Workday, and Microsoft all develop their own agentic systems, integrating them creates a complex, probabilistic, and noisy environment, a stark contrast to the deterministic APIs of the past. Vijoy introduces Cisco's vision for an "Internet of Agents," a platform to manage this new reality, and its open-source implementation, AGNTCY. We explore the four phases of agent collaboration—discovery, composition, deployment, and evaluation—and dive deep into the communication stack, from syntactic protocols like A2A, ACP, and MCP to the deeper semantic challenges of creating a shared understanding between agents. Vijoy also unveils SLIM (Secure Low-Latency Interactive Messaging), a novel transport layer designed to make agent-to-agent communication quantum-safe, real-time, and efficient for multi-modal workloads.

In this episode of The Distribution, host Brandon Sedloff sits down with Brendan Wallace, CEO & CIO of Fifth Wall, to explore the firm's founding thesis, its investment philosophy, and the evolving intersection of real estate and technology. Brendan shares his unique career path—from real estate private equity at Blackstone to launching a successful tech startup sold to Workday—offering rare insight into how his dual experience in tech and real estate shaped the creation of Fifth Wall. He outlines how the firm's strategic LP model allows them to drive technology adoption within the real estate sector, and discusses the broader opportunity that comes from modernizing a traditionally analog industry. The conversation also touches on the firm's investing strategy, views on AI and data, and why Brendan believes the next wave of leading real estate platforms will be launched in the coming years. They discuss: * Why Fifth Wall's LP base of real estate incumbents gives it a strategic advantage in venture investing * How Brendan's early tech exit and institutional finance background informed his venture model * The challenges of real estate's slow tech adoption, and which firms are actually driving change * Brendan's view on the overhyped promise of proprietary data in the AI era * Why now may be the best time in a generation to launch a new real estate investment platform A valuable conversation for anyone exploring the future of real estate, venture capital, or building at the intersection of both.
