Organizations are removing layers, teams are getting smaller, and AI is increasing what one person can produce.In this episode, Dale Callahan explains why the leader of the future will increasingly be a player-coach: someone who can develop people, set direction, use new technology, and still contribute directly to meaningful results.You will learn why experienced professionals can become vulnerable when their value depends too heavily on title and hierarchy, how to reconnect leadership with value creation, and three questions that reveal whether your experience remains portable.Subscribe to Company of One wherever you listen, or watch on YouTube.
