  • I wish I’d had this podcast 10 years ago!

    I just listened to the episode with Jared Mabry and I loved it so much I listened twice. It would be great to hear something about disruptive innovation theory/ Christensen and some of the examples of its use/ criticisms etc. Structuring the conversations around certain themes would make it easier to digest. Great work, team!

Preparing for AGI and the Age of Superintelligence with Ingo Paas, Technology Executive and Author of “A Billion Times Smarter”

Preparing for AGI and the Age of Superintelligence with Ingo Paas, Technology Executive and Author of “A Billion Times Smarter”
Q: What is the one thing listeners should do differently starting tomorrow?
Engage with AI actively, develop your own perspective on current capabilities, and focus on the impact of AI rather than chasing the latest tech status to close the knowledge gap.
Leading Digital Transformation in Property with Richard Corbridge of SEGRO
Q: What is the most actionable piece of advice you would give listeners today?
Lead with simplicity: explain concepts so non-technical colleagues can digest them, and build organizational change around inclusive, hands-on adoption of new tech like AI and automation, rather than dropping tools on teams. This helps people see value quickly and sustains momentum.
Scaling Technology To Achieve Longer Life Expectancy, Lower Mortality, Improve Patient Experience and Lower Cost with Lawrence Hamilton of The Permanente Medical Group
Q: If there was only one piece of actionable advice you might leave the listeners with today, what would that be?
Find a role that feeds both your heart and your head, because healthcare is complex and constantly evolving, and that alignment sustains long-term fulfillment and impact.
Beyond the Hype: Practical Decision-Making for Healthcare IT Leaders With Oliver Galicki of Memorial Hermann Health System
Q: How do you view IT's role in the broader organization, particularly after your EPIC implementation?
IT is a partner to all pillars of the organization; by engaging across departments, sharing knowledge, and avoiding silos, IT can drive better adoption, more value, and smoother operations.
