What happens when the data giants own 80% of the world’s information? And how do you lead when technology is evolving at ludicrous speed?In this finale:Demystifying Industry 5.0: Why it’s not just “4.0 with extra steps”—and why it’s about human-centricity, sustainability, and resilienceReal talk on the data economy: What happens when autonomy and purpose collide, and what IT leaders can do to keep their teams, their values, and their sanitySurviving the next wave: Practical advice for IT leaders on strategy, people, and using your independence for something meaningfulHope for the future: Building organizations that thrive—even as technology, data, and society change faster than everWe wrap it up with our biggest question yet: What’s the point of autonomy if you’re not using it for something bigger?Thanks for listening, for joining the conversation, for the Slack debates, the five-star reviews, the merch, and the beer.
