AI Leadership founder Geoff Woods: Why AI won't replace great leaders

Show notes

Geoff Woods thinks you're using AI wrong

A manufacturing CEO stood up at one of Geoff Woods' leadership workshops and described a company headed for bankruptcy. He had leased expensive equipment from a Japanese firm. Market conditions shifted. The debt was crushing him, and the Japanese board refused to restructure it. They believed doing so would cause them to lose face. He had hired consultants and tried five strategies. Nothing worked.

Woods walked him through a prompt. It gave the AI context about the business, assigned it the role of an investment banker with deep expertise in debt restructuring, and instructed it to ask up to 3 questions before making a recommendation. What came back was a simulation of an expert who also understood Japanese culture and history, and its first question landed hard: did the CEO have relationships with other executives in Japan that the board would respect? He had never thought to ask.

After three questions, the AI proposed five strategies. The top one was something it called a Saving Face Consortium. The CEO got emotional and admitted he had not slept in 90 days because he believed the company was finished. Two months later, he texted Woods. Negotiations had restarted, and he believed the company would survive.

Woods wrote The AI-Driven Leader and founded AI Leadership on the belief that most executives treat AI as if it were Google. Ask it "how do I restructure debt," and you get average answers. Most leaders stop there and conclude the technology is overrated. The leaders getting real value use it as a thought partner. They give it context, assign it a role, let it interview them, and then hand it a task. Woods calls the framework CRIT. It is the difference between a search engine and an expert who asks the question you missed.

As Chief Growth Officer of Jindal Steel & Power, Woods helped grow the company's market capitalization from $750 million to $12 billion in four years. He saw ChatGPT two weeks after it launched in December 2022 and, like everyone else, used it to write better emails. Then he noticed that nobody gets promoted for being the best email writer in the company. He started using it on strategy instead, demonstrated a prompt at his chairman's house that pressure-tested the company's strategic plan before an earnings call, and ultimately ran AI adoption across the enterprise. The technology, he learned, mattered less than the people using it. So he resigned and wrote the book.

Before writing it, he interviewed 200 leaders. All 200 believed AI was the future. Fewer than five percent had done anything with it. They gave the same reason: they did not know where to start.

Today, Woods says the problem has inverted. Leaders have a false sense of confidence that they have started. They confuse access with adoption. They mandate AI across their companies while never using it themselves, then wonder why their random collection of use cases produces no return. An executive who has not transformed personally cannot cast a vision for anyone else. Woods compares it to describing color while living in black and white.

At Herbalife, a 40-year-old company operating in more than 90 countries, his team replaced the sticky notes and whiteboards of a traditional strategy session. AI interviewed every executive individually and anonymously, then produced a report showing where the leadership team agreed, where they disagreed, and what people were thinking but not saying. One executive estimated the two-hour session saved six months. The process started with 25 leaders and has expanded to 4,000.

The book ends somewhere else entirely. Woods was bullied growing up and tied his identity to achievement, believing success would earn him acceptance. When he sold his company, he woke up the next morning depressed. Without the work, he did not know who he was. Six months of reflection brought him to a plain conclusion: you are not what you do. He cites Michelangelo, who said he did not create sculptures but only removed everything that was not already a masterpiece. Most people are buried under work AI can now remove. What remains is the question of who is underneath.

Asked who gave him a chance, Woods named Gary Keller and Jay Papasan, who hired a medical device salesman with no CEO experience to build the company behind The ONE Thing. Keller shared his systems, taught Woods how to think like a CEO, and got out of the way.

The full conversation includes the story of Woods' executive assistant, who used AI to redesign her own job, wrote the job description for her replacement, and told him she could not become 100 times more valuable until she first made him 100 times more valuable. He never would have designed that role. She did.

00:04:22.400 --> 00:04:25.759
they've<00:04:22.560> ever<00:04:22.720> had<00:04:22.880> with<00:04:23.040> AI.<00:04:23.360> So<00:04:23.520> it<00:04:23.600> literally<00:04:23.919> changes<00:04:24.240> their<00:04:24.400> life.

00:04:25.759 --> 00:04:29.208
<00:04:26.029> And<00:04:26.299> what's<00:04:26.569> changed<00:04:26.839> since<00:04:27.109> you<00:04:27.379> first<00:04:27.649> published<00:04:27.919> it?

00:04:29.208 --> 00:04:36.413
[sighs]<00:04:30.000> We<00:04:30.240> went<00:04:30.400> from<00:04:30.560> leaders<00:04:30.960> not<00:04:31.199> knowing<00:04:31.440> where<00:04:31.600> to<00:04:31.840> start<00:04:32.080> to<00:04:32.479> them<00:04:32.720> having<00:04:32.960> a<00:04:33.199> false<00:04:33.440> sense<00:04:33.680> of<00:04:33.840> confidence<00:04:34.160> that<00:04:34.400> they've<00:04:34.720> started.

00:04:36.413 --> 00:04:40.000
[laughter]<00:04:37.120> And<00:04:37.440> I<00:04:37.680> chose<00:04:37.919> my<00:04:38.160> words<00:04:38.400> very<00:04:38.639> carefully<00:04:39.040> there.

00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:47.840
The<00:04:40.320> reason<00:04:40.479> I<00:04:40.720> say<00:04:40.800> a<00:04:41.120> false<00:04:41.440> sense<00:04:41.600> of<00:04:41.840> confidence<00:04:42.639> is<00:04:42.880> a<00:04:43.120> lot<00:04:43.199> of<00:04:43.360> leaders<00:04:43.680> are<00:04:43.919> confusing<00:04:44.560> access<00:04:45.040> to<00:04:45.280> tools<00:04:46.080> with<00:04:46.320> adoption.

00:04:47.840 --> 00:04:52.639
<00:04:48.000> Just<00:04:48.160> because<00:04:48.320> the<00:04:48.479> people<00:04:48.639> in<00:04:48.720> your<00:04:48.960> company<00:04:49.199> have<00:04:49.360> access<00:04:49.520> to<00:04:49.840> ChatGPT<00:04:50.240> or<00:04:50.400> Copilot<00:04:50.880> or<00:04:51.040> Claude<00:04:51.360> does<00:04:51.520> not<00:04:51.600> mean<00:04:51.759> that<00:04:51.919> they<00:04:52.080> are<00:04:52.240> using<00:04:52.400> it.

00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:55.840
And<00:04:53.199> using<00:04:53.440> it<00:04:53.680> does<00:04:53.840> not<00:04:54.000> mean<00:04:54.160> writing<00:04:54.400> better<00:04:54.720> emails.

00:04:55.840 --> 00:05:05.040
And<00:04:56.160> what<00:04:56.400> I<00:04:56.639> am<00:04:56.720> now<00:04:56.960> finding<00:04:57.280> is<00:04:57.440> that<00:04:57.680> every<00:04:57.919> executive<00:04:58.320> team<00:04:58.560> is<00:04:58.720> mandating<00:04:59.120> the<00:04:59.360> use<00:04:59.440> of<00:04:59.600> AI<00:05:00.639> but<00:05:00.880> they<00:05:01.120> are<00:05:01.360> not<00:05:01.919> personally<00:05:03.199> using<00:05:03.520> it<00:05:03.840> themselves

00:05:05.040 --> 00:05:08.479
every<00:05:05.520> day<00:05:05.840> to<00:05:06.160> elevate<00:05:06.720> their<00:05:07.039> own<00:05:07.440> performance.

00:05:08.479 --> 00:05:11.440
And<00:05:08.720> the<00:05:08.880> cost<00:05:09.039> of<00:05:09.199> that<00:05:09.440> is<00:05:09.600> a<00:05:09.759> lack<00:05:09.919> of<00:05:10.080> vision.

00:05:11.440 --> 00:05:19.759
Now<00:05:11.759> they're<00:05:12.240> identifying<00:05:12.639> all<00:05:12.880> these<00:05:13.120> use<00:05:13.360> cases,<00:05:13.919> spending<00:05:14.320> all<00:05:14.560> this<00:05:14.720> money<00:05:15.120> questioning<00:05:15.520> the<00:05:15.759> return,<00:05:16.639> and<00:05:16.800> it's<00:05:17.120> because<00:05:18.240> they're<00:05:18.560> living<00:05:18.800> in<00:05:18.960> black<00:05:19.199> and<00:05:19.440> white.

00:05:19.759 --> 00:05:22.960
They've<00:05:20.000> only<00:05:20.240> seen<00:05:20.479> black<00:05:20.639> and<00:05:20.800> white,<00:05:20.960> and<00:05:21.120> they're<00:05:21.280> trying<00:05:21.440> to<00:05:21.600> describe<00:05:22.000> color.

00:05:22.960 --> 00:05:30.639
You<00:05:23.199> cannot<00:05:24.720> possibly<00:05:25.600> understand<00:05:26.080> how<00:05:26.320> you<00:05:26.479> can<00:05:26.639> transform<00:05:27.120> your<00:05:27.360> product<00:05:27.520> or<00:05:27.759> service<00:05:28.000> offering<00:05:28.320> to<00:05:28.479> create<00:05:28.639> a<00:05:28.800> competitive<00:05:29.120> advantage<00:05:29.600> or<00:05:29.919> how<00:05:30.080> you<00:05:30.240> can<00:05:30.320> drive

00:05:30.639 --> 00:05:33.919
operational<00:05:31.199> efficiency<00:05:31.680> if<00:05:31.919> you<00:05:32.080> have<00:05:32.240> not<00:05:32.479> transformed<00:05:32.960> yourself.

00:05:33.919 --> 00:05:36.320
Leadership<00:05:34.400> starts<00:05:34.639> with<00:05:34.880> self<00:05:35.440> leadership.

00:05:36.320 --> 00:05:39.680
And<00:05:36.560> so<00:05:36.800> that's<00:05:37.040> the<00:05:37.280> big<00:05:37.519> gap<00:05:37.759> I<00:05:37.999> see<00:05:38.239> right<00:05:38.479> now.

00:05:39.680 --> 00:05:42.479
<00:05:39.904> And<00:05:40.128> you<00:05:40.352> talk<00:05:40.576> about<00:05:40.799> using<00:05:41.023> AI<00:05:41.247> like<00:05:41.471> a<00:05:41.695> thought<00:05:41.919> partner.

00:05:42.479 --> 00:05:47.919
What<00:05:42.778> do<00:05:43.076> you<00:05:43.375> mean<00:05:43.674> by<00:05:43.973> that<00:05:44.271> exactly?<00:05:44.570> <00:05:44.869> How<00:05:45.168> about<00:05:45.466> I<00:05:45.765> just<00:05:46.064> share<00:05:46.363> a<00:05:46.661> real<00:05:46.960> example?

00:05:47.919 --> 00:05:56.320
<00:05:48.340> Yeah.<00:05:48.761> <00:05:49.182> I<00:05:49.603> believe<00:05:50.024> that<00:05:50.445> your<00:05:50.866> ability<00:05:51.287> to<00:05:51.708> think<00:05:52.130> strategically<00:05:52.551> is<00:05:52.972> the<00:05:53.393> difference<00:05:53.814> between<00:05:54.235> growing<00:05:54.656> your<00:05:55.077> business<00:05:55.498> or<00:05:55.919> going

out<00:05:56.479> of<00:05:56.639> business.<00:05:58.479> I<00:05:58.800> never<00:05:59.120> ask<00:05:59.680> what's<00:05:59.919> the<00:06:00.080> right<00:06:00.240> AI<00:06:00.560> use<00:06:00.720> case.

00:06:00.880 --> 00:06:06.720
I<00:06:01.199> think<00:06:01.280> that's<00:06:01.520> the<00:06:01.759> wrong<00:06:02.160> question<00:06:02.880> because<00:06:03.199> that's<00:06:03.520> a<00:06:03.840> solution<00:06:04.400> in<00:06:04.720> search<00:06:04.960> of<00:06:05.120> a<00:06:05.360> problem.

00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:09.440
It<00:06:06.960> is<00:06:07.199> strategy<00:06:07.759> first,<00:06:08.240> technology<00:06:08.880> second.

00:06:09.440 --> 00:06:17.199
A<00:06:09.680> better<00:06:09.919> question<00:06:10.160> to<00:06:10.319> ask<00:06:10.560> is<00:06:10.800> what<00:06:10.960> are<00:06:11.039> the<00:06:11.199> biggest<00:06:11.520> problems<00:06:11.759> that<00:06:12.000> you<00:06:12.160> are<00:06:12.319> facing<00:06:12.960> that<00:06:13.199> if<00:06:13.360> we<00:06:13.600> could<00:06:13.919> solve<00:06:14.240> them,<00:06:15.199> it<00:06:15.520> unlocks<00:06:16.080> a<00:06:16.319> new<00:06:16.479> level<00:06:16.639> of<00:06:16.800> growth<00:06:17.039> for

He's<00:09:24.959> actually<00:09:25.360> holding<00:09:25.680> back<00:09:25.839> tears.<00:09:26.880> I<00:09:27.120> can<00:09:27.200> see<00:09:27.360> it<00:09:27.440> in<00:09:27.600> his<00:09:27.760> eyes.

00:09:28.000 --> 00:09:36.160
And<00:09:28.080> he<00:09:28.320> gets<00:09:28.480> super<00:09:28.720> vulnerable<00:09:29.200> as<00:09:29.360> he<00:09:29.600> looks<00:09:29.760> around<00:09:30.000> the<00:09:30.240> room<00:09:30.320> and<00:09:30.560> admits,<00:09:31.519> "I<00:09:32.000> have<00:09:32.240> not<00:09:32.560> slept<00:09:33.600> in<00:09:34.000> 90<00:09:34.480> days."

00:09:36.160 --> 00:09:38.959
I<00:09:36.399> have<00:09:36.560> been<00:09:36.720> making<00:09:36.959> peace<00:09:37.200> with<00:09:37.440> the<00:09:37.600> fact<00:09:37.680> that<00:09:37.839> we<00:09:38.000> are<00:09:38.160> going<00:09:38.320> out<00:09:38.560> of<00:09:38.640> business.

00:09:41.760 --> 00:09:45.120
Two<00:09:42.000> months<00:09:42.160> later,<00:09:42.399> I<00:09:42.640> get<00:09:42.720> a<00:09:42.880> text<00:09:43.040> from<00:09:43.200> him.<00:09:43.440> It<00:09:43.680> said,<00:09:43.760> "The<00:09:44.000> ball<00:09:44.160> is<00:09:44.399> moving."

I<00:09:45.360> actually<00:09:45.680> think<00:09:45.839> this<00:09:46.080> is<00:09:46.320> going<00:09:46.399> to<00:09:46.640> get<00:09:46.800> done."

00:09:48.640 --> 00:09:56.240
What<00:09:48.880> if<00:09:49.120> the<00:09:49.279> biggest<00:09:49.600> threat<00:09:49.839> to<00:09:50.080> your<00:09:50.320> business<00:09:51.120> wasn't<00:09:51.519> the<00:09:51.760> competition,<00:09:53.040> but<00:09:53.279> it<00:09:53.440> was<00:09:53.600> how<00:09:53.839> you<00:09:54.080> were<00:09:54.320> thinking?

00:09:56.240 --> 00:09:59.120
This<00:09:56.480> is<00:09:56.640> the<00:09:56.880> opportunity<00:09:57.680> that<00:09:57.920> is<00:09:58.080> in<00:09:58.320> front<00:09:58.399> of<00:09:58.560> you.

00:09:59.120 --> 00:10:07.200

00:10:11.040 --> 00:10:12.800
How?<00:10:11.600> What<00:10:11.839> is<00:10:12.000> leadership<00:10:12.560> to<00:10:12.640> you?

00:10:12.800 --> 00:10:17.279
You<00:10:12.959> said<00:10:13.120> something<00:10:13.279> really<00:10:13.600> interesting<00:10:13.839> at<00:10:14.000> the<00:10:14.160> beginning<00:10:14.320> of<00:10:14.480> this,<00:10:14.640> which<00:10:14.880> is<00:10:15.040> like<00:10:15.680> leadership<00:10:16.160> starts<00:10:16.399> with<00:10:16.560> self<00:10:16.800> leadership.

00:10:17.279 --> 00:10:20.000
And<00:10:17.440> if<00:10:17.600> you<00:10:17.680> can't<00:10:17.839> lead<00:10:18.079> yourself,<00:10:18.399> you<00:10:18.560> can't<00:10:18.720> lead<00:10:18.880> others,<00:10:19.360> right?

00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:26.959
So<00:10:20.160> you've<00:10:20.399> got<00:10:20.480> to<00:10:20.640> start<00:10:20.800> with<00:10:20.959> that.<00:10:21.200> So<00:10:21.360> what<00:10:21.600> is<00:10:21.920> leadership<00:10:22.560> in<00:10:22.880> this<00:10:23.120> age<00:10:23.600> of<00:10:24.160> ubiquitous<00:10:24.640> artificial<00:10:25.200> intelligence?

00:10:26.959 --> 00:10:35.920
I<00:10:27.279> think<00:10:27.440> leadership<00:10:28.160> is<00:10:28.480> teaching<00:10:28.959> people<00:10:29.360> how<00:10:29.600> to<00:10:29.839> think<00:10:32.160> so<00:10:32.399> that<00:10:32.640> they<00:10:32.880> can<00:10:33.040> get<00:10:33.760> what<00:10:34.000> they<00:10:34.240> want<00:10:34.399> out<00:10:34.640> of<00:10:34.800> life.

00:10:35.920 --> 00:10:45.440
And<00:10:37.360> when<00:10:37.600> you<00:10:37.839> specifically<00:10:38.640> put<00:10:38.880> it<00:10:39.200> in<00:10:39.600> an<00:10:39.920> AI-driven<00:10:40.720> world,<00:10:41.839> I<00:10:42.079> think<00:10:42.240> most<00:10:42.640> I<00:10:42.880> think<00:10:42.959> the<00:10:43.120> reality<00:10:43.360> is<00:10:43.680> most<00:10:44.000> people

00:10:51.279 --> 00:10:58.959
It<00:10:51.519> just<00:10:51.680> happens<00:10:51.920> to<00:10:52.079> be<00:10:52.160> what<00:10:52.320> they<00:10:52.560> do.<00:10:53.360> And<00:10:53.680> I<00:10:53.920> think<00:10:54.079> the<00:10:54.720> minority<00:10:55.200> of<00:10:55.440> people<00:10:55.839> truly<00:10:56.320> find<00:10:56.720> fulfillment<00:10:57.360> in<00:10:57.680> their<00:10:57.920> career.

00:10:58.959 --> 00:11:04.320
If<00:10:59.252> you<00:10:59.546> study<00:10:59.839> the<00:11:00.133> changes<00:11:00.426> in<00:11:00.719> technology<00:11:01.013> throughout<00:11:01.306> history,<00:11:01.600> you<00:11:01.893> go<00:11:02.186> back<00:11:02.480> to<00:11:02.773> the<00:11:03.067> industrial<00:11:03.360> revolution.

00:11:04.320 --> 00:11:12.880
We<00:11:04.640> were<00:11:04.880> literally<00:11:05.839> taught<00:11:06.640> in<00:11:06.959> school<00:11:08.160> to<00:11:08.480> stop<00:11:08.880> thinking<00:11:09.600> like<00:11:09.920> humans<00:11:10.320> and<00:11:10.560> to<00:11:10.800> start<00:11:11.040> thinking<00:11:11.360> like<00:11:11.600> machines.

00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:30.640

00:18:20.240 --> 00:18:26.160

00:18:44.559 --> 00:18:53.280
Now,<00:18:44.720> if<00:18:44.960> your<00:18:45.200> job<00:18:45.520> description<00:18:46.240> happens<00:18:46.559> to<00:18:46.880> capture<00:18:47.360> a<00:18:47.679> lot<00:18:47.760> of<00:18:48.000> skills<00:18:48.320> and<00:18:48.559> processes<00:18:49.039> that<00:18:49.280> are<00:18:49.520> going<00:18:49.679> away,<00:18:50.720> that<00:18:51.280> specific<00:18:51.919> job,<00:18:52.480> you're<00:18:52.799> right.

00:18:53.280 --> 00:18:57.600
What<00:18:53.520> happens<00:18:53.760> to<00:18:54.000> those<00:18:54.240> people<00:18:54.559> though?<00:18:55.200> Throughout<00:18:55.520> history,<00:18:55.840> they've<00:18:56.080> always<00:18:56.320> learned<00:18:56.559> new<00:18:56.799> skills.

00:18:57.600 --> 00:19:02.640
And<00:18:57.840> so,<00:18:58.000> I<00:18:58.240> think<00:18:58.320> this<00:18:58.559> is<00:18:58.640> where<00:18:58.799> I<00:18:58.960> am<00:18:59.120> seeing<00:18:59.360> plenty<00:18:59.679> of<00:18:59.840> evidence<00:19:00.160> in<00:19:00.400> companies<00:19:00.720> where<00:19:00.960> they're<00:19:01.120> not<00:19:01.280> using<00:19:01.440> this<00:19:01.600> to<00:19:01.760> cut<00:19:02.000> people.

00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:06.960
They're<00:19:02.960> using<00:19:03.200> this<00:19:03.360> to<00:19:03.600> drive<00:19:04.000> way<00:19:04.400> higher<00:19:04.799> revenue<00:19:05.760> per<00:19:06.080> employee.

00:19:06.960 --> 00:19:14.640
Maybe<00:19:07.200> they're<00:19:07.520> not<00:19:07.679> hiring<00:19:08.720> as<00:19:09.039> aggressively,<00:19:09.919> but<00:19:10.240> their<00:19:10.559> standards<00:19:10.960> for<00:19:11.200> what<00:19:11.520> humans<00:19:12.000> can<00:19:12.240> now<00:19:12.559> do<00:19:13.200> is<00:19:13.520> way<00:19:13.760> more<00:19:14.000> elevated.

00:19:14.640 --> 00:19:16.960
That's<00:19:14.960> the<00:19:15.200> story<00:19:15.440> I<00:19:15.760> wish<00:19:16.160> they<00:19:16.400> were<00:19:16.559> telling.

00:19:16.960 --> 00:19:22.080
Fine<00:19:17.280> to<00:19:17.520> give<00:19:17.760> caution,<00:19:18.640> but<00:19:19.280> why<00:19:19.600> not<00:19:19.760> also<00:19:20.160> provide<00:19:20.559> the<00:19:20.799> solution?

00:19:22.080 --> 00:19:29.280
Yeah.<00:19:22.320> It's<00:19:22.559> so<00:19:22.720> interesting<00:19:23.120> because<00:19:23.440> again,<00:19:23.760> like<00:19:24.000> when<00:19:24.240> Henry<00:19:24.640> Ford<00:19:25.120> invented<00:19:25.600> the<00:19:25.760> automobile,<00:19:26.320> he<00:19:26.480> didn't<00:19:26.640> say<00:19:26.799> this<00:19:26.960> is<00:19:27.039> going<00:19:27.120> to<00:19:27.200> take<00:19:27.360> all<00:19:27.520> of<00:19:27.679> your<00:19:27.840> jobs,

00:19:44.799 --> 00:19:53.039

00:19:55.679 --> 00:20:00.080
Like<00:19:55.919> I'm<00:19:56.080> not<00:19:56.320> I<00:19:56.480> just<00:19:56.640> don't<00:19:56.799> want<00:19:56.880> to<00:19:57.039> pick<00:19:57.200> on<00:19:57.360> the<00:19:57.760> CEOs<00:19:58.240> themselves,<00:19:59.039> although<00:19:59.280> they<00:19:59.440> should<00:19:59.600> be<00:19:59.679> picked<00:19:59.919> on.

00:20:00.080 --> 00:20:05.200
They're<00:20:00.240> fine.<00:20:00.480> They're<00:20:00.960> leading,<00:20:01.440> you<00:20:01.600> know,<00:20:01.760> what<00:20:01.919> could<00:20:02.160> be<00:20:02.240> the<00:20:02.880> biggest<00:20:03.280> companies<00:20:03.600> in<00:20:03.760> the<00:20:03.919> history<00:20:04.080> of<00:20:04.240> humanity.

00:20:05.200 --> 00:20:13.360
But<00:20:05.360> also<00:20:05.600> like<00:20:05.760> it<00:20:06.000> doesn't<00:20:06.160> seem<00:20:06.400> like<00:20:06.640> our<00:20:06.960> political<00:20:07.360> leaders,<00:20:07.760> elected<00:20:08.160> leaders,<00:20:08.720> community<00:20:09.120> leaders<00:20:09.600> really<00:20:09.919> understand<00:20:10.400> how<00:20:10.720> to<00:20:11.679> respond<00:20:12.400> to<00:20:12.640> this.

00:20:13.360 --> 00:20:21.679
They<00:20:13.679> don't.<00:20:14.080> And<00:20:14.480> I<00:20:14.720> have<00:20:15.360> um<00:20:15.919> had<00:20:16.240> firsthand<00:20:16.880> conversations<00:20:17.679> with<00:20:18.000> somebody<00:20:18.240> who<00:20:18.480> sits<00:20:18.720> on<00:20:18.880> the<00:20:19.039> AI<00:20:19.440> House<00:20:19.679> task<00:20:20.000> force<00:20:20.320> for<00:20:20.720> AI.

00:20:21.679 --> 00:20:24.080

So<00:21:42.240> this<00:21:42.400> is<00:21:42.480> the<00:21:42.720> spoiler<00:21:43.120> alert.<00:21:43.520> You<00:21:43.760> just<00:21:44.080> this<00:21:44.320> is<00:21:44.400> the<00:21:44.720> conclusion<00:21:45.679> to<00:21:45.919> the<00:21:46.080> AI-driven<00:21:46.720> leader.

00:21:47.760 --> 00:21:52.000
When<00:21:48.000> I<00:21:48.159> was<00:21:48.320> a<00:21:48.559> kid<00:21:49.440> I<00:21:49.679> was<00:21:49.840> bullied<00:21:50.240> really<00:21:50.480> significantly.

My<00:21:52.240> entire<00:21:52.559> life<00:21:52.799> Clint<00:21:53.280> I<00:21:53.440> really<00:21:53.679> hated<00:21:54.080> myself.

00:21:54.559 --> 00:21:59.520
My<00:21:54.795> self-talk<00:21:55.030> was<00:21:55.266> absolutely<00:21:55.501> brutal<00:21:55.737> because<00:21:55.972> the<00:21:56.208> external<00:21:56.443> world<00:21:56.679> just<00:21:56.915> kind<00:21:57.150> of<00:21:57.386> shaped<00:21:57.621> that<00:21:57.857> as<00:21:58.092> part<00:21:58.328> of<00:21:58.563> my<00:21:58.799> identity.

00:21:59.520 --> 00:22:03.679
And<00:21:59.679> as<00:21:59.840> a<00:22:00.000> kid<00:22:00.159> my<00:22:00.400> way<00:22:00.480> to<00:22:00.640> work<00:22:00.799> through<00:22:00.960> that<00:22:01.200> trauma<00:22:02.000> was<00:22:02.240> to<00:22:02.400> achieve.

00:22:03.679 --> 00:22:07.280
I<00:22:04.000> thought<00:22:04.159> if<00:22:04.320> I<00:22:04.480> was<00:22:04.559> more<00:22:04.799> successful<00:22:05.120> than<00:22:05.280> my<00:22:05.440> peers,<00:22:05.760> they'd<00:22:05.919> like<00:22:06.080> me<00:22:06.159> or<00:22:06.400> they'd<00:22:06.640> respect<00:22:06.880> me.

00:22:15.360 --> 00:22:19.440
so<00:22:15.600> many<00:22:15.760> people<00:22:16.000> make,<00:22:16.240> which<00:22:16.400> is<00:22:16.559> I<00:22:16.720> attached<00:22:17.200> my<00:22:17.679> identity<00:22:18.000> to<00:22:18.240> my<00:22:18.559> job.

00:22:19.440 --> 00:22:24.320
And<00:22:19.600> when<00:22:19.840> my<00:22:20.000> job<00:22:20.240> was<00:22:20.480> no<00:22:20.640> longer<00:22:20.960> my<00:22:21.200> job,<00:22:22.000> I<00:22:22.240> didn't<00:22:22.400> know<00:22:22.559> who<00:22:22.720> I<00:22:22.960> was.

00:22:27.919 --> 00:22:31.200
And<00:22:28.080> what<00:22:28.320> I<00:22:28.480> realized<00:22:28.960> is<00:22:29.760> you<00:22:30.000> are<00:22:30.240> you.

00:22:45.679 --> 00:22:48.400
But<00:22:45.760> I<00:22:46.000> think<00:22:46.159> about<00:22:46.320> how<00:22:46.559> Michelangelo<00:22:47.280> sculpted<00:22:47.600> the<00:22:47.840> David.

00:22:59.039 --> 00:23:05.760

00:25:11.520 --> 00:25:18.159
If<00:25:11.600> we're<00:25:11.760> going<00:25:11.840> to<00:25:11.919> use<00:25:12.000> this<00:25:12.240> to<00:25:12.559> genuinely<00:25:13.200> make<00:25:13.360> ourselves<00:25:13.840> more<00:25:14.080> impactful,<00:25:14.880> then<00:25:15.120> we<00:25:15.279> can<00:25:15.440> cast<00:25:15.760> that<00:25:16.000> vision<00:25:16.240> and<00:25:16.480> lead<00:25:16.640> the<00:25:16.880> team<00:25:17.039> to<00:25:17.279> do<00:25:17.360> it.

00:25:18.159 --> 00:25:23.039
The<00:25:18.480> things<00:25:18.720> that<00:25:19.120> people<00:25:19.440> are<00:25:19.760> doing<00:25:20.000> in<00:25:20.240> their<00:25:20.480> careers<00:25:20.960> is<00:25:21.200> nothing<00:25:21.520> short<00:25:21.760> of<00:25:21.919> remarkable.

00:30:39.120 --> 00:30:43.440
There's<00:30:39.360> no<00:30:39.600> way<00:30:39.760> I<00:30:39.919> would<00:30:40.000> have<00:30:40.159> given<00:30:40.320> that<00:30:40.480> to<00:30:40.640> her<00:30:40.720> as<00:30:40.880> a<00:30:41.039> job<00:30:41.200> description.

00:30:51.520 --> 00:30:57.520
We<00:30:51.679> solved<00:30:52.000> two<00:30:52.240> specific<00:30:52.640> problems.<00:30:53.520> One<00:30:53.760> is<00:30:54.080> every<00:30:54.399> leadership<00:30:54.799> team<00:30:54.960> is<00:30:55.200> mandating<00:30:55.600> AI<00:30:55.919> but<00:30:56.159> not<00:30:56.320> using<00:30:56.480> it<00:30:56.720> directly<00:30:57.039> themselves.

00:30:57.520 --> 00:31:02.159
We<00:30:57.679> are<00:30:57.840> the<00:30:58.000> best<00:30:58.159> in<00:30:58.399> the<00:30:58.559> world<00:30:59.120> at<00:30:59.440> evangelizing<00:31:00.320> executive<00:31:00.720> teams<00:31:01.039> to<00:31:01.200> become<00:31:01.360> AI-driven<00:31:01.919> leaders.

00:31:02.159 --> 00:31:05.279
And<00:31:02.240> we<00:31:02.320> do<00:31:02.399> it<00:31:02.480> for<00:31:02.559> some<00:31:02.720> of<00:31:02.799> the<00:31:02.880> biggest<00:31:03.039> companies<00:31:03.279> in<00:31:03.440> the<00:31:03.520> world.<00:31:03.679> It<00:31:03.919> literally<00:31:04.159> changes<00:31:04.480> their<00:31:04.720> life.

Once<00:31:05.600> we<00:31:05.760> evangelize<00:31:06.480> them<00:31:06.720> and<00:31:06.960> they<00:31:07.200> are<00:31:07.360> living<00:31:07.600> and<00:31:07.840> using<00:31:08.080> it<00:31:08.320> every<00:31:08.559> day,<00:31:09.360> we<00:31:09.679> then<00:31:10.080> focus<00:31:10.559> on<00:31:10.880> harnessing<00:31:11.440> AI<00:31:12.000> to<00:31:12.240> do<00:31:12.399> the<00:31:12.559> timeless<00:31:13.120> things<00:31:13.360> that

00:31:20.080 --> 00:31:28.000
So,<00:31:20.320> we<00:31:20.559> literally<00:31:20.960> partner<00:31:21.279> with<00:31:21.440> a<00:31:21.679> company<00:31:21.840> and<00:31:22.159> go<00:31:22.320> on<00:31:22.559> a<00:31:22.880> journey<00:31:23.120> where<00:31:23.360> we<00:31:23.600> embed<00:31:24.080> AI<00:31:24.720> into<00:31:25.200> those<00:31:25.520> processes<00:31:26.159> around<00:31:26.559> strategy<00:31:26.960> and<00:31:27.200> execution.

00:31:28.000 --> 00:31:34.640
So,<00:31:28.159> they<00:31:28.399> make<00:31:28.559> better<00:31:28.799> decisions,<00:31:29.360> they<00:31:29.600> execute<00:31:29.919> the<00:31:30.159> 20%<00:31:30.640> and<00:31:30.880> it<00:31:31.039> moves<00:31:31.200> the<00:31:31.360> bottom<00:31:31.679> line.

00:31:34.640 --> 00:31:43.600
So,<00:31:35.120> how's<00:31:35.440> it<00:31:35.600> going?<00:31:36.480> Tell<00:31:36.559> us<00:31:36.799> tell<00:31:37.039> us<00:31:37.519> there<00:31:37.919> like<00:31:38.240> give<00:31:38.399> us<00:31:38.559> some<00:31:38.960> examples<00:31:39.360> of<00:31:39.679> like<00:31:40.960> uh<00:31:41.360> walking<00:31:41.760> into<00:31:42.159> and<00:31:42.480> totally<00:31:42.880> transforming

00:32:26.399 --> 00:32:30.159

00:32:30.159 --> 00:32:32.000
People<00:32:30.399> are<00:32:30.559> putting<00:32:30.720> their<00:32:30.960> ideas<00:32:31.279> on<00:32:31.519> the<00:32:31.679> wall.

00:32:32.000 --> 00:32:35.919
You're<00:32:32.240> clustering<00:32:32.720> them.<00:32:34.000> That's<00:32:34.320> officially<00:32:34.720> over.

00:32:35.919 --> 00:32:39.360
And<00:32:36.080> the<00:32:36.320> reason<00:32:36.480> it's<00:32:36.799> broken<00:32:37.120> is<00:32:37.360> that<00:32:37.679> one<00:32:37.919> person<00:32:38.240> talks<00:32:38.559> at<00:32:38.720> a<00:32:38.880> time.

The<00:32:39.600> loudest<00:32:40.000> voices<00:32:40.399> dominate.<00:32:40.960> The<00:32:41.200> smartest<00:32:41.600> ideas<00:32:42.000> may<00:32:42.240> never<00:32:42.399> be<00:32:42.559> spoken.

00:32:42.880 --> 00:32:48.720

00:32:54.000 --> 00:32:57.679
We<00:32:54.320> found<00:32:54.559> ourselves<00:32:54.960> wondering,<00:32:55.519> might<00:32:55.760> there<00:32:56.000> be<00:32:56.080> a<00:32:56.320> better<00:32:56.480> way<00:32:56.640> to<00:32:56.799> do<00:32:56.960> this?

00:32:57.679 --> 00:33:02.640
So<00:32:58.000> we<00:32:58.320> have<00:32:58.960> invented<00:32:59.679> a<00:33:00.000> model<00:33:00.320> that<00:33:00.480> we<00:33:00.720> call<00:33:00.960> a<00:33:01.200> thought<00:33:01.519> partner.

00:33:02.640 --> 00:33:08.480
Um<00:33:04.159> this<00:33:04.399> is<00:33:04.559> something<00:33:04.720> that<00:33:04.960> we<00:33:05.120> have<00:33:05.279> patented<00:33:05.919> specifically<00:33:06.559> for<00:33:06.880> strategy<00:33:07.279> and<00:33:07.519> execution.

They<00:33:19.519> just<00:33:20.000> clicked<00:33:20.320> a<00:33:20.480> button.<00:33:21.440> AI<00:33:21.919> simultaneously<00:33:22.960> starts<00:33:23.360> interviewing<00:33:24.080> every<00:33:24.480> person<00:33:24.720> in<00:33:24.880> the<00:33:25.039> room,<00:33:25.440> 25<00:33:25.919> people<00:33:26.240> for<00:33:26.559> 20<00:33:26.880> minutes.

00:33:27.519 --> 00:33:31.679
Where<00:33:27.679> do<00:33:27.840> you<00:33:27.919> agree<00:33:28.159> with<00:33:28.320> the<00:33:28.480> agenda?<00:33:29.200> What<00:33:29.360> do<00:33:29.519> you<00:33:29.679> disagree<00:33:30.240> with?

00:33:31.679 --> 00:33:35.120
What<00:33:31.919> are<00:33:32.000> going<00:33:32.080> to<00:33:32.159> be<00:33:32.320> the<00:33:32.480> top<00:33:32.640> challenges<00:33:33.039> globally,<00:33:33.519> the<00:33:33.679> top<00:33:33.919> challenges<00:33:34.399> regionally?

00:33:35.120 --> 00:33:37.919
Where's<00:33:35.440> the<00:33:35.600> culture<00:33:36.399> not<00:33:36.640> going<00:33:36.720> to<00:33:36.880> tolerate<00:33:37.360> this?

00:33:37.919 --> 00:33:41.919
And<00:33:38.080> it<00:33:38.320> was<00:33:38.480> designed<00:33:38.880> that<00:33:39.120> if<00:33:39.279> somebody<00:33:39.519> goes<00:33:39.760> surface<00:33:40.159> level,<00:33:40.559> it<00:33:40.799> pushes<00:33:41.200> for<00:33:41.440> depth.

00:33:41.919 --> 00:33:46.240
It<00:33:42.159> does<00:33:42.320> not<00:33:42.640> accept<00:33:43.840> BS<00:33:44.559> and<00:33:44.799> it's<00:33:45.039> anonymous.

00:33:46.240 --> 00:33:50.480
What<00:33:46.480> happens<00:33:46.799> is<00:33:47.120> it<00:33:47.360> spits<00:33:47.679> out<00:33:47.840> a<00:33:47.919> McKinsey<00:33:48.480> style<00:33:48.799> report<00:33:49.039> of<00:33:49.279> every<00:33:49.519> person's<00:33:49.919> thinking.

00:33:50.480 --> 00:33:58.880
I<00:33:50.799> click<00:33:51.039> the<00:33:51.200> button,<00:33:51.679> it<00:33:51.919> reads<00:33:52.240> all<00:33:52.480> 25<00:33:53.039> reports<00:33:53.440> simultaneously<00:33:54.159> and<00:33:54.399> goes<00:33:55.360> and<00:33:55.679> on<00:33:56.000> the<00:33:56.240> screen<00:33:56.559> it<00:33:56.799> said,<00:33:56.960> "Here's<00:33:57.360> where<00:33:57.519> the<00:33:57.679> room<00:33:57.840> is<00:33:58.000> aligned."

00:34:04.480 --> 00:34:10.079
And<00:34:04.640> then<00:34:04.799> it<00:34:04.960> posed<00:34:05.279> a<00:34:05.519> question<00:34:05.840> to<00:34:06.080> the<00:34:06.240> room<00:34:06.880> and<00:34:07.279> just<00:34:07.840> started<00:34:08.399> to<00:34:08.800> listen.

00:34:10.079 --> 00:34:19.200
That<00:34:10.399> unlocked<00:34:11.040> 30<00:34:11.520> minutes<00:34:12.320> of<00:34:12.639> conversation<00:34:13.599> where<00:34:13.919> AI<00:34:15.200> is<00:34:15.919> literally<00:34:16.560> listening<00:34:17.119> to<00:34:17.440> every<00:34:17.919> single<00:34:18.320> word.

00:34:19.200 --> 00:34:24.560
It<00:34:19.520> collapses<00:34:20.159> 30<00:34:20.480> minutes<00:34:20.720> of<00:34:20.879> context<00:34:21.280> and<00:34:21.520> then<00:34:21.679> asks<00:34:22.399> the<00:34:22.720> next<00:34:23.919> question.

00:34:24.560 --> 00:34:27.280
It<00:34:24.944> started<00:34:25.328> to<00:34:25.712> co-facilitate<00:34:26.096> the<00:34:26.480> meeting.

00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:30.079
Fast<00:34:27.599> forward<00:34:27.919> two<00:34:28.159> hours,<00:34:28.800> they<00:34:29.040> were<00:34:29.200> in<00:34:29.359> full<00:34:29.599> alignment.

00:34:30.079 --> 00:34:34.720
And<00:34:30.320> one<00:34:30.480> of<00:34:30.560> the<00:34:30.639> leaders<00:34:30.960> looks<00:34:31.119> up<00:34:31.280> and<00:34:31.440> goes,<00:34:31.919> "This<00:34:32.320> would<00:34:32.480> have<00:34:32.639> taken<00:34:32.960> us<00:34:33.200> 6<00:34:33.440> months.

00:34:34.720 --> 00:34:39.839
We<00:34:34.979> just<00:34:35.238> did<00:34:35.496> it<00:34:35.755> in<00:34:36.014> 2<00:34:36.273> hours."<00:34:36.531> And<00:34:36.790> they<00:34:37.049> said,<00:34:37.308> "How<00:34:37.566> do<00:34:37.825> we<00:34:38.084> get<00:34:38.343> the<00:34:38.601> next<00:34:38.860> 400<00:34:39.119> aligned?"

00:34:39.839 --> 00:34:42.240
Well,<00:34:40.079> they<00:34:40.240> had<00:34:40.399> an<00:34:40.560> off-site<00:34:41.040> planned<00:34:41.280> in<00:34:41.440> Vienna.

00:34:42.240 --> 00:34:45.119
We<00:34:42.560> flew<00:34:42.800> there,<00:34:43.520> architected<00:34:44.240> another<00:34:44.560> prompt.

00:34:45.119 --> 00:34:50.560
In<00:34:45.444> 20<00:34:45.769> minutes,<00:34:46.094> we<00:34:46.419> unlocked<00:34:46.744> the<00:34:47.069> collective<00:34:47.394> thinking<00:34:47.720> of<00:34:48.045> 400<00:34:48.370> people<00:34:48.695> and<00:34:49.020> had<00:34:49.345> it<00:34:49.670> on<00:34:49.995> the<00:34:50.320> board.

00:34:50.560 --> 00:34:54.159
The<00:34:50.720> next<00:34:50.879> day,<00:34:51.040> we<00:34:51.200> took<00:34:51.359> it<00:34:51.520> to<00:34:51.839> 4,000<00:34:53.359> people.

00:34:54.159 --> 00:35:02.320
Now,<00:34:54.399> we<00:34:54.560> are<00:34:54.800> partnering<00:34:55.119> with<00:34:55.359> them<00:34:55.599> to<00:34:55.919> actually<00:34:56.480> make<00:34:56.800> this<00:34:57.119> how<00:34:57.359> they<00:34:57.760> run<00:34:58.640> the<00:34:59.040> company<00:34:59.760> where<00:35:00.079> this<00:35:00.320> is<00:35:00.560> how<00:35:00.880> they<00:35:01.119> run<00:35:01.440> meeting<00:35:01.760> structures.

00:35:15.200 --> 00:35:21.520
So<00:35:15.359> when<00:35:15.520> there's<00:35:15.760> shifts<00:35:16.079> in<00:35:16.400> priorities<00:35:17.040> throughout<00:35:17.359> the<00:35:17.520> year,<00:35:17.920> it<00:35:18.160> dynamically<00:35:18.720> updates<00:35:19.119> what<00:35:19.359> people<00:35:19.599> need<00:35:19.760> to<00:35:19.920> focus<00:35:20.160> on.

00:35:21.520 --> 00:35:28.880
That's<00:35:21.680> that's<00:35:22.000> what<00:35:22.160> we're<00:35:22.320> doing<00:35:22.480> right<00:35:22.720> now.<00:35:23.680> Final<00:35:24.079> question<00:35:24.880> uh<00:35:25.599> and<00:35:25.839> we<00:35:26.000> ask<00:35:26.160> everybody<00:35:26.560> we<00:35:26.720> end<00:35:26.880> every<00:35:27.119> interview<00:35:27.440> with<00:35:27.599> the<00:35:27.760> same<00:35:27.920> question<00:35:28.240> and<00:35:28.480> that<00:35:28.720> is
