Reviews

4.8 out of 5 stars from 40 ratings
  • Title makes no sense—Phenomena?

    Suggestion: Change the name of your podcast. This is a dry and rather dull corporate business podcast— the host’s voice doesn’t help— & the title of the podcast makes you think it will be about mysterious topics.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Leading with Perspective – with Larry McGrath
Q: What distinguishes an AI product from just a large language model, and why do the surrounding layers matter?
The LLM handles core capabilities like vector embeddings and next-token prediction, but the product stack—dialogue management, memory, value alignment, and user modeling—shapes how the AI actually interacts with people.
Leading with Perspective – with Larry McGrath
Q: Could you say a little bit more about yourself and what brings you to this space?
Larry describes his four-year focus at Amazon on Alexa Plus and how social science informs the end-to-end AI product, from design decisions to alignment with human goals.
Leading with Perspective – with Carrie Yury
Q: How do you talk to stakeholders and other leaders in the organization who might be skeptical of... understanding the underlying why?
Carrie shares her experience at Sonos, illustrating her success in making skeptical executives understand the value of customer research through impactful video examples.
Leading with Perspective – with Carrie Yury
Q: Can you tell us more about 'living strategy'? How does it differ from conventional or traditional strategy?
Living strategy is discussed as a more agile method of reassessing and adapting a company's strategy regularly, as opposed to the static, annual strategy meetings that fail to address the rapidly changing market.
Leading with Perspective – with Carrie Yury
Q: So what does strategy mean to you and why does it matter?
Carrie explains that strategy is about the vision or purpose of what we're trying to achieve, the plan to achieve it, separating it from tactics which are the actual methods used to execute that plan.
