About this episode.

You won't lose your job to AI in 2026. You'll lose it to someone who knows how to use AI better.

Russell Beck (author of "The World of Work to 2030" - Leadership Book of the Year) breaks down what's changing in the workplace and how to stay ahead.

IN THIS EPISODE:

- Why AI collaboration beats AI competition

- How technology democratizes work by destroying skills, not jobs

- The 3 skill buckets for 2030: creativity, self-efficacy, leadership

- The JFK janitor who said "I'm helping put a man on the moon"

- Why your manager impacts your mental health as much as your partner

- Active listening: the skill most people aren't using

Russell's key insight: "I'm not worried about whether AI is thinking. I'm worried about whether humans are thinking."

Russell Beck has worked in 25 countries, was European Head of Talent at Yahoo, and now helps organisations future-proof their people strategies.
