AI vs Experience

Why Being Smart Isn't Enough

In this BONUS time episode of People Mavens, we dig in to the definition of "smart". Sounds simple? Not so fast!

Do you need more than book smarts to be an effective contributor? We get into it and we're taking our time. This episode is full of nuggets, stories, and a few laughs. Hop in and check it out.

You Taste What You Focus On

In this episode, we dive into the power of focus and how learning to control it can transform both your work and your life. We'll share some practical ways we try to reclaim our attention, direct it with intention, and stay productive even when distractions creep in to steal it. Most importantly, we explore how sharpening your focus helps you show up as the leader, teammate, or friend you truly want to be.

AI vs Experience

Is AI killing the need for experience in leadership? If AI has all the answers, why go through the years of development to learn what AI can tell us in minutes? Is AI the new go-to source to solve people problems for leaders? You don't want to miss this special extended episode where we get deep into it from two different angles to discuss the future of people leaders in this new AI reality.

Are You Coachable?

We hear the term "coachable" all the time, but what does it mean? Why is it such an important part of great teams? What characteristics and qualities make someone coachable? And what can people work on to become more coachable? We'll unpack the term with stories and examples to help it really come to life so we can all apply it and look for it in our teams.

Do It Yourself, Not By Yourself

Are you going to do it yourself? Yes. Are you going to do it alone? Absolutely not. In this episode, we are back, and we're exploring how having clarified expectations of support can give you the freedom to reach new heights. So, how do you set those expectations as a leader? How do you reframe the journey's setbacks as milestones along the right track? We'll get into all that and more.
