Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

The Surprising Science of "Decision Intelligence" With Simon Hill
Q: What role do Kill Credits play in organizational learning and funding future projects?
Kill Credits monetize the learning from failed ideas by treating the residual expected value of learning as a balance sheet asset, which helps organizations stop funding dead ends and invest smarter in future opportunities while maintaining a culture of experimentation.
The Surprising Science of "Decision Intelligence" With Simon Hill
Q: How should leaders balance AI-assisted analysis with human intuition to avoid losing the human element in decision making?
Leaders should combine human and synthetic intelligence, codify qualitative insights into measurable inputs, and use AI to augment human judgment rather than replace it, ensuring conversations stay grounded in context and culture while benefiting from data-driven clarity.
The Surprising Science of "Decision Intelligence" With Simon Hill
Q: Simon, what is the difference between innovation theater and innovation performance, and how can a company tell the two apart?
Innovation theater is about talk and appearances, whereas innovation performance requires measurable outcomes and value creation; the best way to tell the difference is to connect ideas to real value, using metrics and a clear framework like expected value and the Desirable-Feasible-Viable model to assess impact.
Why "Winging It" Is Killing Your Leadership with Neil Mullarkey
Q: What does it mean to be in the moment in improvisation, and why is it important for leadership?
It means calming the inner voice, listening to others, co-creating, and being present rather than clinging to a prepared script; this mindset helps leaders respond to real-time input and build trust.
The Influence Gap: How to Get On with Anyone with Catherine Stothart
Q: How do we determine which approach is right for us, and what is your model about?
The model consolidates Jungian and trait-based insights into four interaction styles focused on how people communicate and what drives their behavior, with an emphasis on emotions and long-term relationship dynamics rather than just labels.
