Think Gen Z is leading the charge on AI? Not so fast. It turns out your middle managers might be the ones best positioned to drive real change.

In this episode, we talk about why this layer of leadership is so critical to AI adoption. From curiosity and context to bridging top-down vision with on-the-ground execution, they’re uniquely equipped to make it real. We get into what works, where companies are getting stuck, and how to create safe spaces for experimentation without all the pressure.

Key Takeaways from This Episode:

• Why your mid-level managers are more AI-ready than you think
• How to create “safe to fail” spaces that actually spark innovation
• What happens when one person’s experiment unlocks possibility for the whole team
