What Would AI Do? Rethinking Transformation from Procurement to the Enterprise at DPW

Live from the floor of DPW in New York, I had the privilege of joining my long-time friend Mark Perera on the DPW podcast. We explored the future of technology, business, and leadership, while also looking back to our roots in Silicon Valley during the rise of Web 1.0, Web 2.0, Social Media, and smartphones. What made it truly special wasn’t just the set, it was the conversations I had with procurement leaders, innovators, and partners before stepping up to…

Igniting AI Transformation: How to Future-Proof Your Company in the Age of AI

Technology moves at its own pace, adoption moves at the pace of culture.  I joined Deloitte’s AI Ignition podcast with Beena Ammanath, Executive Director, Deloitte Global AI Institute, to talk about why AI feels different from past waves of technology, what it asks of leaders, and how we can turn disruption into a competitive advantage. Beena opened by reminding us of a simple truth from Deloitte’s research: “technology moves at its own pace, but the adoption of the technology in…

Cybernews: Does AI Affect Job Satisfaction?

Cybernews: Does AI Affect Job Satisfaction?

by Adi Gaskell, Cybernews Employee engagement has sunk to a 10-year low, as only around a third of American employees are engaged, with this figure barely budging over the past decade, according to data from Gallup.

AI is not just automation, but potential to expand human capabilities and redefine leadership models; an interview with Brian Solis Is artificial intelligence synonymous with automation? Absolutely yes, but not only.

The Digital (and AI) Culture Challenge; Bridging the Employee-Leadership Disconnect

I would have forgotten all about this report I co-authored with Jerome Buvat of Capgemini in 2017 if I hadn’t received an email from Sara Fonseca from Insead. She’s working on research around the shaping of organizational cultures in the context of larger digital transformations. Her inquiry centered on our report that explored the expansive gaps between executives and employees around leadership, digital transformation, and culture, “The Digital Culture Challenge; Bridging the Employee-Leadership Disconnect.” Her email inspired me to revisit…

Leadership needs a mindshift: A conversation with Brian Solis

So many things are changing right now, except our mindsets. To thrive in this renaissance, future leadership requires a mindshift. If you haven’t met NTT DATA’s Tammy Soares yet, this is a good time. I had the absolute pleasure of spending time with her on the Catalyst podcast to talk about why the time is now to challenge your own thinking, your current mindset. We often think that change is for others, when in fact, change is for all of…

What Happens to Companies That Don’t Think Big Enough with AI?

I had the privilege of joining GoTo CMO Peter Mahoney on the Practically Tomorrow podcast. We talked about one of the most urgent, and misunderstood, topics of our time: how AI is reshaping the world of work. But this wasn’t just another conversation about automation and productivity. It was a much deeper exploration of how we need to rethink leadership, empathy, and innovation in the age of intelligent machines. “The most dangerous thing for any organization of any size is…
