What does 'AI' look like when it's implemented well? What are the benefits to businesses and (more importantly) the end user? To help us try to find the answers, this week I'm joined by Patrick Bell, an AI transformation partner and doctoral AI researcher. We (mostly Patrick) dissect the operational friction behind corporate artificial intelligence adoption, why so many technical rollouts fail internally despite looking highly successful on the surface and the structural breaking points of organizations under pressure, with examples like the tension between automated customer support bots and human empathy, or the systemic failure of traditional educational models to adjust to high-velocity AI learning.

A key topic of this week's episode is sustainability in fashion, fair to say, I'm about the least fashion-conscious person you know. So I'm opening this description with a thank you to this week's guest, Lacey Cadieux-McLean, for 1. patiently answering my silly questions on the subject, and 2. teaching me quite a few things I didn't know and had never thought about when it comes to something as simple as the clothes we wear and the impact they may be having on our health and the environment. We also find time to talk leadership, the challenges faced by new leaders, first-time founders and managers, through the lens of Lacey's own journey from project manager to founder.

Today we're testing a few of the assumptions of entrepreneurship and leadership, from "fail fast" to "leaders have all the answers" and more, we might even be debunking and refuting some of these ideas, and discussing why they're actually a little bit toxic. I'm joined by guest, Joel Miller, co-founder (with his twin brother) of The Sky Floor, LLC. A marketing agency of two, which has a slightly contrarian view, a non-traditional take if you like, on business growth and how micro-companies can run. Joel shares his unconventional views on leadership and business, we chat about the importance of lifelong learning, the value of small business operations, the need to challenge common business clichés and how staying small can be a competitive advantage.

If your team's definition of productivity requires running on empty while ignoring or stigmatising health (mental or otherwise), it’s time to rewrite the rulebook! This week I have a conversation with Lesley Waldron that completely reframes how we look at health at work. Lesley is a fantastic health coach tackling the oft-ignored realities of workplace wellness head-on. We discuss the critical gaps in traditional workplace culture and how it handles/mishandles women's health and menopause in particular.

This week, my guest is Kurt Bush, a leadership coach and podcaster, and he shares some thoughts on the often-overlooked aspects of leadership, from understanding trauma to the differing challenges of leading volunteers and employees. And from the all-too-common struggle with the inner critic to more intentional decisions. We also talk about authenticity, alignment and core values in leadership, practical steps for personal transformation and how to overcome those inevitable feelings of isolation and imposter(ism?) in your new leadership role. We squeeze in some of the big leadership topics too, like work-life balance, difficult conversations, maintaining trust, curiosity and emotional intelligence, and some of our personal experiences.

One of the things I wish I'd started doing earlier is building networks. Particularly ones full of supportive, people-oriented people. Early in my career I was, at best, suspicious of the term 'networking' because I didn't really understand the concept and thought it was just a pushy sales thing... So imagine my surprise when I first joined ONLE Networking! It's the complete opposite of every bad networking story you've ever heard or experienced and the reason for that, in my opinion, comes down to it's founders. Which is a long-winded way of saying, those very people are on the podcast this week! I'm joined by Kelly, James, and Kierney to talk networking and its many benefits from business to mental health and beyond, leadership dos, don'ts and wherefores, the trials, tribulations, successes and joys of business... Journalism, love, basketball, Captain America and a whole bunch of other stuff I've probably forgotten to mention.

A lot of the time, the biggest challenge in a company is trying to balance the many competing priorities and as leader-managers in those businesses, we've probably all faced those frustrating trade-offs, like how do I systemize without losing people's buy-in and engagement? One key way is to involve those people in defining the way you do things, and we'll hear more examples in today's conversation because my guest is Marianne Page, creator of Sticky Systems, Speaker, Best-Selling Author. Marianne shares her experience from a nearly 30 year career at McDonald's as well as working with a variety of businesses since then, SMEs and beyond. We talk about the importance of developing your people, creating those systems in the right way, fostering that culture of engagement and ownership within your organization or team.
