Keynote speaker, Customer Success Coach and Podcast Host Bob Mathers is warning all of us not to fall into the trap of thinking everyone else but yourself in your organization, industry and social media has all the answers. In talking to some of the most successful business leaders in the world, Bob discovered something fascinating. "They're riddled with the same insecurities and fears as the rest of us." This gap between perception and reality is killing authentic leadership. Bob advocates for the "three-legged stool" for every major leadership decision: Is it good for the company? Is it good for the team? Is it good for me? "If we can't find a positive for all three legs of that stool, we need to keep looking for a solution." Even with all the change and uncertainty an AI world brings, Bob reminds us to remember our humanity. "Maybe it's as simple as just being human, leaning into tht things AI will never be. It will never be curious. It will never be vulnerable and never be creative." Walk your talk as a leader. Your team is always watching, looking for alignment between what you say and how you act. Once you lose that trust, it is nearly impossible to win back. This episode has been sponsored by Meter. Head to meter.com/marketimpact to learn more.

Fortune 500 executive and consultancy Founder Nyla Beth Gawel took an non-traditional path into technology, originally studying foreign service not computer science. In leading transformational initiatives at SAIC, Verizon and Booz Allen Hamilton that included steering $7B+ organizations through AI adoption and digital transformation, her secret was simple. She never planned any of it. "Career paths are rarely linear. It really wasn't about what degree did I have. it wasn't about certifications. It wasn't about things on paper that could correlate to the likelihood of success." What did matter was intellectual curiosity and the willingness to embrace complexity rather than run from it. Plus a big dose of really understanding customer needs. "The best technical solutions cam from a deep understanding of a need, not just the interest in what could happen technologically." Everything is ultimately about people, and your legacy as a leader is defined by how you inspire them.
