from Revenue Rewired · host Jay Feitlinger & Sarah Shepard | B2B Growth Experts

Jay and Sarah open up about an experiment reshaping how StringCan runs quarterly planning. After losing their longtime facilitator, Sarah built an AI advisory board inside Claude, the StringCouncil, stacked with personalities like Brene Brown, Jocko Willink, and Patrick Lencioni to fill gaps in the leadership team's blind spots. The payoff is real: vague commitments don't slide, unresolved issues don't get buried, and every voice in the room gets sharper feedback in real time.
