AI is coming for your job…or is it?

Right now, boards and CEOs are being sold the dream that AI will replace thousands of people, slash costs, and magically boost profit.

Meanwhile, leaders like you are stuck in the middle, trying to keep customers happy and deliver real results with tools that are still hallucinating and half-baked.

So how do you cut through the hype and work out what is actually useful for your team, your customers, and your career?

In this episode, I’m joined by AI strategist and product expert James Killick. James has been working with AI long before it was cool, helping businesses weave it into real products and real workflows, not just shiny demos.

We get into questions that are front of mind for every modern leader:

• How reliable is AI really, and when should you absolutely keep a human in the loop?
• Why 80 to 90 percent of corporate AI initiatives are failing, and how to avoid being one of them
• What AI will automate first, and what will remain uniquely human for much longer than people think
• How to become an AI orchestrator who manages both people and AI agents to get better results; and
• The single biggest mindset shift you need if you want to stay relevant in the AI era

We also talk about very practical stuff: Which parts of your business to tackle first…how to train your people without turning them into rogue prompt cowboys...and how to use AI to dramatically increase your speed and impact, without handing your brain over to the machine.

If you are a leader who wants to use AI to amplify your edge rather than erase it, this episode is for you.

Is your team pushing back? Uncover upward bullying and take control as stronger leader.

We hear a lot these days about work-related anxiety, which can easily lead to claims of bullying and harassment.

But we rarely hear about the impact this has on leaders like you, who bear the brunt of people’s personal problems in the workplace.

For many companies, the explosion in stress-related claims has pushed them to pursue more conservative HR policies, playing right into the hands of the small but powerful minority who are happy to engage in upward bullying.

If you want to go deeper on how to deal with passive aggressive resistance from below, have a listen to Ep.345: Upward Bullying.

Every leader faces recurring challenges, the kinds of problems that don’t go away, they just evolve as you grow!

In this rapid-fire Q&A, Marty and Em tackle 9 of the most common leadership issues that came in from our listeners across Instagram, LinkedIn, and email. From surviving a toxic boss and getting out of the weeds as your business scales, to knowing when “checking for standards” becomes control, this episode is packed with practical, real-world solutions.

You’ll hear how to:

• Tackle micromanagement without triggering conflict
• Shorten the overthinking cycle after tough situations
• Hold firm on your value-ranked priorities when new tasks pile in
• Balance strengths with blind spots that could block your progression
• Build trust with your team and step back without losing control
• Give feedback that lands (even with sensitive team members)
• Grow when your own boss gives little or no feedback

Each answer is sharp, tested, and rooted in experience, no fluff, no theory. Just the real conversations leaders everywhere are having right now!
