Another call to ensure we are investing in ourselves in the era of AI. A few take aways for Talent professionals from this recent podcast from Josh Bersin. 1-AI infrastructure costs are causing companies, especially tech companies, to evaluate investments in AI and talent. 2- We need to ensure we are evaluating the the skills, capabilities and output (performance)of our workforce. 3-We need to spend time as talent leaders upskilling ourselves now. “We all have the opportunity to upskill ourselves and add value.”Josh Bersin Know you purpose and passion as well and don’t fear AI, instead seek to continually change, learn, grow. As a friend shared with me recently, “An artist doesn’t worry about the cost of their supplies when they are creating a new piece.” So let’s invest our time to create a new future for ourselves. #aiwithallyson #changelearngrow

How do you connect people to your mission? In a recent episode of the WorkLab #podcast from Microsoft, Erica Keswin talks with Molly Wood about the need for more humanity in the workplace. Erica shares a practice the CEO of Meetup uses when a new person joins the company. 👉 No matter the role, he sends a personal note, expressing how excited the company is to have them and conveying how important their job is to the purpose and mission of Meetup. Aligning your company with a clear #vision and #mission is crucial, but so is taking the meaningful step of connecting that mission to every individual in your organization for a more engaged and purpose-driven workplace. #startups #founders #leadership #branding

A lot of business leaders and employees, including myself, are seeking to understand #AI and how it will ultimately impact their business and/or careers. While listening to Acquired's podcast, Jensen Huang from NVIDIA shared insightful thoughts on AI and its impact on the job market. Contrary to common fears, he believes AI will create more jobs in the near term. As companies become more productive and profitable, they often expand and hire more people to explore new ideas and opportunities. Industries with labor shortages might use AI to boost growth and prosperity. While job roles will evolve, the key takeaway is to learn how to use AI to augment productivity. Embracing AI could lead to higher employment and a more dynamic workforce. "I think jobs will change. My guess is that we’ll actually have higher employment, we’ll create more jobs. I think industries will be more productive. Many of the industries that are currently suffering from lack of labor, workforce is likely to use AI to get themselves off their feet and get back to growth and prosperity. I see it a little bit differently, but I do think that jobs will be affected, and I’d encourage everybody just to learn AI." Here is the podcast link which includes some other impactful insights. The discussion on AI starts at about 1:00. https://lnkd.in/gspe7HBg #AI #FutureOfWork #Innovation #Productivity #TechLeadership #WorkforceDevelopment #JobGrowth #BusinessStrategy #AIInBusiness #TechTrends

NEW on ‘The Next Great Thing’ podcast… We’re with the incredible Nancy Xu, named to TIME’s inaugural #TimeAI100 list and the visionary founder of Moonhub.🌙✨Nancy shares how her experience as a first-generation immigrant has fueled her passion for expanding access to opportunities. Her journey from the Stanford Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (SAIL) to starting a traditional recruiting agency turned Moonhub into what it is today: an AI-powered assistant that’s revolutionizing recruiting at scale, freeing human recruiters from the boring stuff and matching more people with better jobs. 🚀 Highlights from the episode: ➡️How AI assistants can source otherwise overlooked candidates for hiring across diverse roles. ➡️How AI works with – not against – humans to improve recruiting (think: AI-in-the-loop when it comes to humans, not human-in-the-loop when it comes to AI). ➡️The role of policy, legislation, and education in mitigating AI's short-term impact on job displacement. ➡️Nancy's optimistic outlook on AI's long-term benefits and the future of recruiting. 🎧Tune in for a super-cool founder story and a fascinating look at the intersection of AI and recruiting.

NEW episode of Inspired Execution with Jeff Frick, founder of Menlo Creek Media and host of the "Work 20XX" podcast!! Read on for learnings... Key Takeaways: 🕴 To succeed as an entrepreneur, you must start with deep conviction about your venture. Then focus on learning from each experience and working with great people. 👩💻 The shift to remote work has exposed the need for managers to provide clear direction and focus on outcomes. A remote/distributed work model hinges on granting employees agency and flexibility. In-person interactions should be reserved for trust-building and problem-solving, while routine tasks and meetings are best handled asynchronously through digital platforms. 🤖 The challenge of making AI models explainable and auditable is significant, given their complexity and constant evolution. Ensuring transparency is essential for trust and accountability. Despite governance and ethical concerns, engaging with AI technologies every day is crucial. Key Quotes: ➡ On advice for aspiring entrepreneurs: "You've got to feel like you have to do it. Because if you have any type of concern or you're just not that interested, you're going to get tired and worn out, and you're not going to be successful." ➡ On AI governance: "What concerns me is audit and explainability. I have a real hard time understanding how we're going to get to explainable AI if the models are constantly learning and evolving and the number of inputs are so large and dynamic." ➡ On the future of work: "Distributed doesn't mean never together."

Elon runs six multi billion-dollar companies simultaneously (SpaceX, Tesla, X, xAI, Neuralink, and Boring Company). Most founders can’t run one. Walter Isaacson (who spent a year shadowing Elon and wrote his biography) explains ‘How Elon does it’ on a podcast. Elon doesn't juggle Tesla, X, SpaceX simultaneously, but rather in cycles of extreme focus. Here's how he does it 👇 1. Elon runs his companies with a strict no BS policy. No BS meetings, teams, processes, rules, or projects. Removes all excess so teams can focus on the only thing that matters - building a great product. 2. Elon hates large teams Small team = Small meetings = More work done. He believes small teams have the intensity and focus which big teams lack. Andrej Karpathy, who worked directly under Elon, explains how he by default wants to fire low performers. 3. Chase speed Elon frequently kicks off intense efforts he calls stunts, where he sets a impossible deadline and forces the team to achieve it A snippet from Walter's biography on Elon tells how Elon completed work worth 6 months in 6 days. But why does he do that? Because he understands Parkinson's Law better than anyone in the world. Parkinson's law states that work expands to fill the time available for its completion. The tighter the deadline, the more work gets done in a shorter time. 4. Accountability Elon would write names of the engineers on the car/rocket components they were responsible to design. This gives them a sense of pride, responsibility and ownership that’s very difficult to achieve any other way. Yes, he doesn't assemble the rockets himself but he has 1. Assembled highly inspired people on the team. 2. Set the precedent that only the top performs will stay, rest will be fired. 3. Instilled the culture of intense accountability. Effective delegation requires cultivating this type of culture. Most founders struggle to even comprehend how Elon manages six billion-dollar companies. This is because they don’t understand how to delegate at scale. They commit the cardinal sin of delegation. Elon understands that entrepreneurship is just effective delegation at scale. All his teams and companies operate at Level 5. Most people cannot freely delegate because they feel their team will slack off. To become a Tier 1 founder, you need to understand that delegation at scale is about culture and intensity.
