AI in the workplace is advancing faster than most of us can keep up with—but there’s one thing it will never replace: human connection and leadership.

In this episode of Engineer Your Success, Dr. James Bryant sits down with Kenneth Correa, a marketing strategist and emerging tech expert from Brazil. Kenneth has spent over 15 years tracking technologies from blockchain and the metaverse to today’s AI agents. He’s also the author of Cognitive Organizations, a book written entirely with the help of AI agents.

Through real-world stories, Kenneth explores the future of work, AI and leadership, and how to use AI productivity tools without losing what matters most—empathy, trust, and human connection at work. From training 7,000 factory workers safely in the metaverse to a failed experiment where a Swiss bank replaced managers with an AI “boss,” you’ll hear both the promise and the pitfalls of AI.

If you’re wondering how to leverage AI to free up your time, boost productivity, and strengthen—not replace—the relationships that drive success at work, this conversation is for you.

Engineer Your Success equips technical professionals and business owners to become confident, purpose-driven leaders who thrive at work and at home. Hosted by Dr. James Bryant, PhD, PE, this podcast gives you practical strategies to strengthen your leadership, communication, and emotional intelligence—so you can build stronger teams, make better decisions, and design a life that works on your terms.
