ADAPTING TO CHANGE PODCAST
Tim HJ Rogers and Dr Eve Poole OBE

It was great to welcome Dr Eve Poole OBE to my podcast.

Dr Eve Poole OBE is adjunct faculty in leadership for Ashridge at Hult International Business School, following earlier careers working for the Church Commissioners for England and for the Deloitte Consulting capital markets practice. She was Interim CEO of the Carnegie Trust for the Universities of Scotland (2023-4), Interim CEO of the Royal Society of Edinburgh (2022), Third Church Estates Commissioner (2018-2021), and Chairman of the Board of Governors at Gordonstoun (2015-2021). As well as a degree in theology from Durham University, Eve holds an MBA from Edinburgh University, for which she won the AMBA MBA Student of the Year Award in 1998, and a PhD in capitalism and theology from Cambridge University. She was awarded an OBE in the 2023 New Year Honours List for services to education and gender equality.

In broadly 6 x 10 minute parta we covered the following.

Part 1: The Human Essence
Dr. Eve Poole discusses the profound implications of AI on understanding what it means to be human, emphasizing the crucial role of leadership in fostering meaning and purpose beyond scientific management.

Part 2: Leadership in Uncertainty
Leadership's true test comes from navigating uncertainty with wisdom and foresight. Dr. Poole explores how leaders balance the need for certainty with the inherent risks of decision-making in unpredictable environments.

Part 3: Valuing Wisdom Over Data
The conversation delves into the undervaluation of practical wisdom in a data-driven world, stressing the importance of implementation and intuitive knowledge that AI and current educational models often overlook.

Part 4: Intuition and Power Dynamics
Dr. Poole reflects on societal and historical dynamics that suppress intuition and promote conformity. She advocates for embracing peripheral vision and metaphysical understanding to enrich human interactions and decision-making.

Part 5: Identity and Societal Influence
Exploring the formation of identity through societal feedback and the balancing act between individualism and belonging, Dr. Poole discusses the psychological and social underpinnings that shape personal and collective ethics.

Part 6: The Ethics of AI and the Preservation of Humanity
The series concludes with a profound discussion on the ethical implications of AI, the potential obsolescence of human capabilities, and the moral considerations necessary to preserve humanity’s future.

About her books ...

Leadersmithing: Revealing the Trade Secrets of Leadership.

This a great book, very practical and usable. Good theory, but even better are the insights and practical suggestions for understanding and developing your own leadership skills. The cards are also a great catalyst for conversations, including coaching conversations.

Robot Souls: Programming in Humanity.

Whilst a great guide on AI including developments, capabilities, and ethics it is also a very interesting book about what it is to be human. If we are are creating AI then we become God-like and it is interesting to think about who we are, and what we value, when we code for the future of the planet (with or without humanity). If we want humanity to continue, we need to explain "why", and that is an interesting discussion when deciding what to add to the algorithm.

Creative, Curious and Challenging Conversations

My podcasts are unscripted with no agenda. I am really interested in listening to people, understanding their experience and sharing their wisdom: people who have done interesting things or have a different perspective. As a coach and consultant the more you learn from other people, the better you can serve and support individuals and organisations with insights and experience, not just your own, but other people's also.

I have been really looking forward to this podcast with Jason Butler, a professional artist renowned for his captivating portraits. His ongoing project, 'Islanders', delves into the depth and diversity of human character through his exquisite brushwork.

Jason's artistic journey has been nothing short of remarkable. With works displayed thrice at the prestigious National Portrait Gallery in London, his talent has garnered widespread acclaim. You can explore his captivating creations on his website www.jasonbutlerartist.com and on Instagram - @jasonbutlerportraits/ @jasonbutler1970.

What sets Jason apart is not just his technical prowess but also his deep engagement with communities. He's left an indelible mark in Jersey, commemorating significant events such as the Queen's visit and the 350th anniversary celebrations of the Royal Mace. His paintings, adorning the atrium of the States Chambers, stand as testaments to his artistry and dedication.

Beyond accolades, Jason's collaborations with organizations like the Mines Awareness Trust reveal his commitment to social causes. His exhibitions following his visit to Rwanda underscore his ability to infuse art with poignant narratives. A graduate of Bristol Art College and Cheltenham Art College, Jason's journey is a testament to his passion for painting and drawing.

This podcast was truly fascinating. Initially, I never anticipated an artist's workshop to resemble a gym, yet Jason's unique blend of creativity and self-care is utterly intriguing. His approach to art is refreshingly professional, diverging from the expected emotional stereotype often associated with artists. What captivated me most were Jason's perspectives on the world and his methodical approach to his craft. Exploring themes and techniques, such as his focus on figures and portraits, shed light on the depth of his artistic vision.

Engaging in a lengthy conversation with Jason was a genuine exploration for me. I found his insights truly surprising and illuminating. For anyone seeking a valuable and unexpected journey into the mind of an artist, this podcast is a must-listen. I thoroughly enjoyed the experience and believe many others will find it equally enlightening.

Give it a listen and prepare to have your perceptions challenged.
