14. Season One Finale — From Curiosity to Courage

The AI-Driven Leader ·

2025/10/28

What does it take to move from “I don’t know where to start” to “I’m going to lead this”?That’s the journey we’ve taken together in Season One of The AI-Driven Leader. Across 12 episodes, you’ve heard from six executives who began where so many leaders are today — curious, cautious, even skeptical. And you’ve witnessed their transformation: from hesitation to bold action.In every interview, they shared the doubts, turning points, and decisions that changed everything. And in every CRIT™ session, you

2025/10/23

In our last episode, he showed how vulnerability and courage turned skepticism into company-wide adoption. But in this CRIT™ session, the challenge was different: how do you keep excitement from stalling out in confusion?Through CRIT™, AI acted as a strategic advisor to his executive team. It surfaced the need for structured listening, a weekly AI narrative, and clear success gates. It pushed him to elevate a “big bet” team into a startup studio — not just to use AI, but to sell with AI.And then

2025/10/21

Imagine going from saying, “AI has no place in steel manufacturing”… to declaring, “It is my expectation that you use AI” across 6,000 employees — all in under six months.That’s exactly what happened when one leader flipped the switch. At first skeptical, he was convinced AI couldn’t touch a 65-year-old steel company. But a persistent senior leader put the right books in his hands — Co-Intelligence and The AI-Driven Leader — and suddenly, curiosity turned into conviction.Within months, he vulnerably

11. CRIT™: How to Reinvent Your Business Model with AI

The AI-Driven Leader ·

2025/10/16

In our last episode, they showed how AI liberated their team to focus on presence and strategy. But in this CRIT™ session, the stakes were higher: what happens when AI threatens to disrupt the very business model itself?Together, we put HireBetter’s flagship Strategic Talent Planning service under the microscope. Today, it’s a full-day, whiteboard-heavy, manual process. But through CRIT™, AI reimagined it as a real-time, AI-augmented copilot — powered by live financials, KPIs, and org charts.The

2025/10/14

Imagine collapsing hours of client-note consolidation into a single minute — and freeing your team to focus on what only humans can do.That’s exactly what happened when two leaders decided to experiment with AI, not as a side project, but as a cultural transformation. One led with fearless curiosity, modeling adoption before asking her team to follow. The other paired process-driven creativity with custom GPTs that unlocked efficiency, strategy, and presence.The result? A recruiting firm that turned

9. CRIT™: Building Your Leadership Playbook for Growth

The AI-Driven Leader ·

2025/10/09

In our last episode, he showed how AI doubled capacity, built new product lines, and reshaped his leadership at work and at home. But behind the success was a deeper challenge: how do you scale leadership itself, so growth doesn’t bottleneck around one person?That’s the question he brought into CRIT™. In this live session, AI stepped in as a strategic operator — taking the context of his leadership challenge and building a playbook to systematize what had only lived in his head. The outcome? Blind

8. Scaling Your Leadership Team with AI with Brian Lang

The AI-Driven Leader ·

2025/10/07

What if you could add ten senior-level teammates for just $20 a month?That's exactly what one CEO did. His breakthrough came after realizing AI wasn't just for emails and edits — it could be a thought partner. He built an internal suite of AI personas: a virtual CRO that recovered lost deals, a business coach tailored to his style, and a system called the "Clarity File" that transformed an 80-hour process into a 4-hour playbook.The result? Hundreds of thousands of dollars in marketing collateral

7. CRIT™: Recruit Your Legendary Board with "Steve Jobs"

The AI-Driven Leader ·

2025/10/02

Most leaders come to CRIT™ with a problem. Rusty Cagle came with a vision: 100YearImpact.org — a nonprofit designed to help nonprofits build endowments and channel billions toward humanitarian causes.At first, he asked AI for strategies. But very quickly, the real challenge emerged: how do you recruit a Dream Team Advisory Board that could guide a movement for 100 years?Through CRIT™, AI drafted a world-class board invitation — then stress-tested it with role-play feedback from “Steve Jobs.” The

2025/09/30

Imagine sitting in a room full of peers — some your age, some even older. Most dismiss AI as a fad. But one leader saw something different: a leapfrog moment. After reading The AI-Driven Leader seven times, he knew dabbling wasn’t enough. He drew a line in the sand: “In 90 days, we will be an AI-driven company.”The stakes were real. Years earlier, he had lost a $200M client because his firm wasn’t big enough. That pain fueled his determination to reinvent ASE Private Wealth™ as a multi-entity

5. CRIT™: How to Build a CEO Succession Plan

The AI-Driven Leader ·

2025/09/25

Every founder faces it eventually: the moment you have to hand over the CEO seat without hovering. As Josh Wand put it, the transition is both “highly strategic and highly emotional.”In this live CRIT™ session, Josh brought that challenge to the table. With Geoff’s guidance, AI acted as a world-class succession planner and operator — designing a weekly 30-minute execution review, a monthly strategic deep dive, and an AI-powered dashboard to clarify decision rights and surface progress in real

4. Becoming a Top Decile AI-Driven Leader with Josh Wand

The AI-Driven Leader ·

2025/09/23

Most leaders fear AI will make them less human. But for one founder, the opposite proved true: “AI doesn’t make me less human, it makes me more human.”Imagine drafting a bulletproof LOI during your son’s soccer tournament in just 2.5 hours. Or compressing quarterly strategy into biweekly sprints — while still showing up fully present for both your team and your family. That’s what happens when you stop seeing AI as a hype tool and start using it as a thought partner.In this episode, you’ll hear how

The AI-Driven Leader ·

2025/09/18

Imagine trying to track hundreds of grants spread across 500+ websites — each with its own windows, rules, and deadlines.For one leader, this was more than an administrative headache. It was millions in missed opportunities for clients, and a scaling problem that seemed impossible to solve.That’s when he brought the challenge into CRIT™. In less than 20 minutes, AI built the blueprint: scraping sites, matching opportunities with Salesforce data, and triggering alerts. What once took weeks of manual

The AI-Driven Leader ·

2025/09/16

“What’s the business that could put you out of business—and why aren’t you building it first?”That simple challenge triggered a mindset shift that turned one leader’s entire model upside down. He realized he’d been treating AI like a glorified search engine, when what he really needed was a thought partner.The results speak for themselves: tripling revenue in the middle of a funding freeze, launching five new companies in just two months, weaving AI into the fabric of his culture, and even designing
