Congratulations! You were so good at your job that we took you away from it. Now you get to find out what nobody mentioned during the promotion: the skills that made you a star don&#39;t automatically work on people, your team thinks your job is one thing, your company thinks it&#39;s another, and you&#39;re somewhere in the middle googling &#34;how to run a one-on-one.&#34; In this episode, we talk about what really changes when you go from doing the work to managing the people doing it, and what companies should teach before handing someone the keys instead of after the wheels come off.

And somehow we’re all supposed to know what happens next.We don’t.So we started a podcast to talk about it.Real questions. Different opinions. Zero requirement to have the perfect answer.Got a strong take, a great story, or something about work that makes you say “Wait... what?”Come join the conversation.We promise not to ask where you see yourself in five years.

Do YOU trust AI? - 001
