AI is reshaping workplace decisions faster than most organizations can explain. In this episode, host Eric Glass digs in with Sal Khan, founder and CEO of Khan Academy, and Katrina Agusti, CIO of Carhartt, about how leaders can manage AI-driven change without losing trust. From transparency to responsible adoption, they explore what it takes to bring people along when technology moves faster than certainty. 

Many employers are pushing for a return to the office — but a segment of today’s top performers isn’t coming back. Even in a softer job market, these workers are prioritizing autonomy and location flexibility in ways that traditional policies can’t easily absorb. In this episode, Eric speaks with Sam Laliberte, founder of Freedom Lifestyle, to unpack why some high-value talent is drawing a firm line on in-office expectations, and what leaders should do when flexibility becomes a make-or-break condition.

Career journeys don’t come with directions anymore, and that can leave people feeling lost. Eric connects with Angela Chambers, network news producer turned talent acquisition leader, and Megan Rafuse, therapist and CEO (Shift Collab) about how organizations can support and guide their people when the path to growth is unclear. 

First-time job seekers today face a tough reality. Starter jobs — those first chances to learn and grow — are disappearing. Host Eric Glass connects with YouTuber Andrey Yasinsky and workplace futurist Alexandra Levit to explore how artificial intelligence is reshaping the job market, company structures, and the future of work — and what it means for employers who risk losing their next generation of talent.

Job seekers are hitting “apply” hundreds of times and hearing nothing back. Recruiters are drowning in resumes. And somewhere in the middle, the human connection has been lost. Host Eric Glass talks with UX designer Yazin Joseph and Kirsten Krug (Kansas City Chiefs) to learn what it really feels like to apply and recruit in the age of AI. Together, they explore how tech, empathy, and trust can make hiring feel human again.

Has the feedback sandwich gone stale? It sure looks that way.

Host Eric Glass sits down with Kaila Lopez (Morning Brew) and Dr. Karen MacMillan (Ivey Business School) to unpack why sugarcoating feedback leaves teams starving for clarity — and how leaders can build a culture where candor, trust, and two-way conversation are always on the menu.

AI promised to take away our burnout. But what if it’s doing the opposite? Eric Glass sits down with creative strategist Andy Newman (Creative Taxi) and organizational psychologist Dr. Kira Schabram (Penn State) to find out what happens when AI raises expectations faster than it raises productivity — and how leaders can bring their workplace to a healthier temperature.

Why do fewer people want to be managers? Host Eric Glass joins organizational behavior expert Rachel Pacheco (Georgetown University) and HR expert Dan Staley (PwC) to unpack why — and how companies can make leadership a job worth wanting.
