Episode Description

In this episode, we welcome back the ever-curious Ross Stevenson, learning strategist, AI explorer, and all-around provocateur for progress. It’s been 16 months since we last spoke, and in AI terms, that might as well be a century.

We pick up where we left off with a bold question: is the future still human? As organisations face shifting roles, rising redundancies, and a surge of AI-driven tools, we explore what’s really changing, and what leaders need to hold on to. Ross offers a grounded view on the human skills that matter most, how AI can elevate thinking (not just efficiency), and why curiosity might just be the ultimate superpower in the age of automation.

We also unpack the growing tension between instant results and meaningful transformation, and how decision-makers can bridge the fear gap without losing sight of what matters most: their people.

Whether you’re AI-curious, AI-fatigued, or just trying to stay ahead of the curve, this conversation will stretch your thinking and invite you to consider what we’re really trying to automate, and why.
