  • Leading Beyond Any Title – Inclusion
    Jan 5 2026

    Inclusion isn’t an initiative; it’s a leadership skill.


    If you’re not leading inclusively, you’re leaving trust, performance, and innovation on the table. In today’s workplaces, teams are more diverse than ever, across culture, generation, identity, and role. But diversity without connection creates friction, not progress. It’s the quality of your connection across difference that determines whether your team collaborates, or fractures.

    This discussion is about the kind of leadership that works where it matters most – the people. Jennie and Craig explore how inclusive leaders build bridges, not just between ideas, between people.

    You’ll learn how to notice who’s on the margins, how to lead with a sense of belonging, and how to create spaces where everyone can contribute fully.

    Connection is the leadership advantage.

  • Leading Beyond Any Title – Delegation: Leading Without Needing to do it All
    Dec 22 2025

    If you’re doing it all, you’re not leading - you’re just surviving. Too many leaders get stuck in execution mode, drowning in tasks, stretched thin, and holding on too tightly.

    Strategic delegation isn’t about dropping work on someone else’s desk. It’s about building capability, trust, and shared ownership.

    When done right, delegation increases engagement, strengthens your bench, and frees you to lead at the level your role requires. When done poorly, or not at all, it creates bottlenecks, burnout, and missed opportunities for growth. In this discussion, Jennie and Craig will help you shift from doing to leading, without losing control, clarity, or confidence.

    Delegation isn’t giving up control, it’s stepping into real leadership

  • Leading Beyond Any Title – Leading in the Age of AI
    Nov 24 2025

    Artificial Intelligence isn’t just a buzzword anymore; it’s a boardroom conversation.

    Leaders at every level are being asked how AI fits into their strategy, their people, and their bottom line. The challenge? Knowing where to start, what to prioritize, and how to lead responsibly in a world where the technology is moving faster than most organizations can keep up.

    In this discussion, Kwame from Braintoy will cut through the noise and focus on what leaders need to know about AI. We’ll explore how predictive and generative AI can be applied to real business problems, how to build an AI-ready culture, and why governance and ethics can’t be an afterthought. This isn’t about turning leaders into data scientists. It’s about giving you the frameworks, questions, and decision-making tools to confidently guide your teams through AI adoption, whether you’re in finance, operations, customer experience, or the -boardroom.

    If you’re not learning how to lead in the age of AI, you’re already behind.
