Talking AI · Context, Control, Collaboration: Why Capability Was Never the Bottleneck · 4 Aug 2026 podcast

It's also a way for me to recruit the next generation of change makers.

So if you think about, you've got to be able to state the why of change.

And then you've got to demonstrate the fortitude as a leader that you're going to take them through it.

And then you've got to expand that capability set.

But as you start going through this transformation, you find out that there are all sorts of friction points.

You have people that rise to the occasion and really surprise you in terms of just how much they take on responsibility and go drive experimentation.

And you get surprised the other way as well, where you have people that had been

really strong contributors or even leaders for the business that just aren't ready for the moment that's in front of you.

You get all of that through those transformations that I was talking about.

I'd say we're in the middle of it right now.

Last year, we kicked off what I referred to as a series of spreads to help advance some of the transformation in this area.

And the reason I called them that was both to simplify the number of things that we were trying to do and also put a flashlight on it.

We've created employee groups across all of our teams where we're pushing experimentation.

And as we see progress, we look to scale it and communicate it and roll it out further.

But that's that hard part that I was talking about of taking the strategy

And then turning it into execution down at the function and team level to actually generate that change to the organization.

I look for curiosity first and foremost.

So whether I'm interviewing a relatively young new entrant or whether I'm interviewing a candidate for a senior level executive job here, I'm looking for someone who is deeply curious.

Because you can't train that.

That's something that just has to be innate in the person that you're bringing in.
