Artificial Intelligence is transforming leadership—but not in the way many assume. In this episode, we explore how AI can free leaders from repetitive tasks, uncover insights hidden in data, and improve communication, while also recognizing where technology stops and human judgment begins. Barry highlights a key truth: AI may be an incredible assistant, but it will never replace the relationships, values, and wisdom that define real leadership.

Key Takeaways
AI’s sweet spot (the “Big 3”):

1. Automate repetitive work (reports, summaries)
2. Surface insights from data quickly
3. Strengthen communication (tone, clarity, first drafts)
   • Leadership is still human: Data gets you halfway—context, judgment, and trust do the rest.
   • Balance for leaders: Let AI co-pilot, not captain; prioritize culture over short-term cuts; reskill, don’t replace; and anchor decisions in values like fairness and inclusion.
   • One Thing: The organizations that win will keep people at the center while using AI to work smarter.
