E395 | Keith Ferrazzi | Building Better Teams, Generosity and Adapting to an AI World

In this episode, I sit down with Keith Ferrazzi — author, speaker, and one of the most recognized voices on leadership and collaboration. We dig into the future of “teamship,” the traps of popular leadership clichés, and why generosity isn’t just a feel-good concept but a competitive advantage. We also talk about the new era of AI, how leaders can navigate it with strategy and authenticity, and what separates those who adapt from those who fall behind. You’ll learn: •How to avoid the subtle pitfalls that quietly erode trust and damage relationships. •Why leadership today requires a process-driven approach — not empty soundbites or recycled philosophies. •What “teamship” looks like in practice, and how to foster it inside your own organization. •How to pair thoughtfulness with boldness in a time where AI and rapid change are reshaping expectations. •The simple but overlooked practices that will keep you ahead of your peers. If you want a grounded, no-BS perspective on leading with authenticity while staying strategically sharp, you’ll want to hear this one. 🎤 Art of Coaching Live Events

Real Coaching for Real Life

Let’s be honest—everyone says they want growth, but putting in the work? That’s where most people just stick to what’s comfortable..

That’s why we created a mentoring service built for the real world. Whether you’re stuck on a professional decision, starting a business, writing a book, dealing with pressure at home, or just trying to get out of your own way—we can help.

This isn’t therapy. And it’s not a rah-rah, feel-good session either. It’s direct, tailored coaching from people who’ve been in the trenches—leaders, operators, educators, business owners. Our team of 15 comes from a wide range of backgrounds, so you’re matched with someone who understands your world and knows how to push you forward.

Everyone needs a coach. We’re here when you’re ready.
