2025/12/18

Organizations invest heavily in systems, structures, and transformation initiatives—but leadership development is often treated as an afterthought.

CC: People first in AI

Klarhet Channel ·

2025/12/16

As we close out Season One of The Klarhet Shift, we step back to look at a pattern that showed up across multiple conversations on AI and automation. The takeaway is simple but often overlooked: AI isn’t a technology transformation first — it’s a people transformation. In this Compass Check, we connect insights from leaders and practitioners to explore what AI reveals about how work actually gets done, where fear shows up, and what leaders must do to prepare their teams for new ways of working.

CC: Solving the Right Problem

Klarhet Channel ·

2025/12/09

In this Compass Check, Mary Ann breaks down one of the biggest leadership traps: solving the wrong problem. Inspired by last week’s Klarhet Shift conversation with Malati, this episode explores why teams keep fighting the same fires and how leaders can uncover the real constraints in their systems. You’ll learn practical steps you can apply today: going to see the work, questioning assumptions, mapping the process, using a CX/UX lens, and identifying when the system—not the people—is driving ...

Klarhet Channel ·

2025/12/04

AI can deliver huge efficiencies—but only when the underlying processes are healthy. In this episode, Mary Ann sits down with AI automation expert Malati Patil to explore why so many organizations struggle with hidden workflows, inconsistent data, and misaligned processes long before automation even begins. Malati shares how small and mid-sized businesses can improve readiness, uncover the “real” process versus the documented one, build practical governance, and shift from doing the work to m...

The Gratitude Habit for Leaders

Klarhet Channel ·

2025/11/20

This week’s Compass Check is about gratitude— as a leadership discipline. We spend so much of our time focused on what’s next that we rarely pause to see the milestones behind us. Those milestones matter. They’re the proof points that show we’ve navigated complexity before… and that we’re ready for what comes next. High-performing teams don’t just execute; they recognize progress, name it, and use it to build trust, confidence, and momentum. Gratitude fuels that. It shifts us from scarcity to...

Klarhet Shift: Governance before gadgets.

Klarhet Channel ·

2025/11/13

Compass Check: Practice as You Play

Klarhet Channel ·

2025/11/11

How do high-performing teams stay steady when the pressure hits? They don’t rely on adrenaline, heroics, or last-minute bursts of clarity. They rely on habits — the ones they’ve practiced in the small, everyday moments long before anything was on the line. In this episode, Mary Ann breaks down why teams don’t rise to the moment — they fall to the level of their training. This Compass Check unpacks: How shared habits become a team’s true operating systemWhy best practices aren’t magic — they o...

When the pressure is on to deliver results, leaders often push themselves and their teams to the limit. But what happens when the drive to perform outpaces the care needed to sustain progress? In this episode of Klarhet Shift, Mary Ann talks with Beth Parkinson, transformation leader and executive coach, about the real work of leading change — balancing relentless execution with resilience and humanity. They explore how to build momentum without burning out, create space for recovery ami...

Compass Check: Steeled with Respect

Klarhet Channel ·

2025/10/28

n this Compass Check, we tackle heated debates that stall progress—and replace them with a simple habit: Steeled by Respect. When the mission is shared but the maps differ, it’s easy to slip into straw-man jabs and point-scoring. Instead, try this three-beat rhythm you can use anywhere: Best Case → Shared Aim → Make the Call. You’ll hear an easy, universal example (rethinking the weekly status meeting) with straw men from both sides—and then the “steel” version that lowers the temperature, cl...

Compass Check: Experiment Boldly

Klarhet Channel ·

2025/10/21

Last week, we talked about how to design a pilot for alignment, learning, and action. This week, we’re taking that mindset further—because not every experiment needs a budget or a formal plan. In this Compass Check, we’ll explore how experimentation becomes a leadership habit: creating space for curiosity, reframing failure as learning, and helping your team move faster without fear. Learn what “intelligent fast failure” really means, why it’s not about recklessness, and how small, safe, and ...

Pilots: Structured to Align, Learn, and Act

2025/10/14

In this Compass Check, we flip the script on pilot design. Instead of chasing ideas, we anchor experiments in strategic goals and real friction. Using AI as a case study, we explore how to frame the fit, involve your team, structure small and measurable pilots, and make a clear business case to leadership. 🎯 One Thing: What’s one stuck area you could explore through a smart, small pilot?

From Smart to Wise: Leading Beyond Expertise

Klarhet Channel ·

2025/10/09

Every team has someone who knows it all—or thinks they do. But great leaders know that wisdom isn’t about having all the answers; it’s about asking better questions. In this Compass Check, we explore how curiosity, challenge, and humility help teams move from “my way” to “our way”—and become smarter together.

Compass Check: Handling Issues, Completely

Klarhet Channel ·

2025/10/07

Every leader faces moments where the easy move is to patch a problem and move on. But real speed and trust come from eliminating the issue entirely. This episode explores how clarity, timing, and accountability — not fear — create the conditions for lasting solutions. This episode uses the phrase from the founder of Skunk works telling his protege to "k-11 the problem" in the context of eliminating development issues in the process. That is why it carries an explicit content warning.

2025/09/25

A lot of rebrands stop at the surface — new logos, fresh colors, maybe a tagline. But true transformation starts inside the company. Culture, operations, and how people work every day are what really drive lasting change. And when there’s also a market pivot or strategic shift in play, that disconnect between image and reality can create real friction. Employees can feel lost, customers can feel confused, and the repositioning risks falling flat. That’s exactly why I invited Mike Stolz onto t...
