Skills AI Can't Steal

My guest for today is leadership and team coach, Luke Haythorpe.
There’s a lot to cover. We'll talk about a personality type assessment tool you've probably never heard of, why Myers Briggs might be overly complicated, and why leadership starts with leading yourself. Chat GPT isn't going to help you recognize your tendencies or help you lean into your strengths. Thank goodness we have kind and genuine human beings like Luke Haythorpe to help guide our way.

Does AI have life experience? Does it have a personality? Not really, at least not the way people do. Today we talk with talented writer, David Perez, about the value of personal experience and having a point of view.
It's an unscripted honest conversation, and we cover a lot of topics. How do you motivate students to write when ChatGPT can write for them? What do you lose if you don't face the blank page? And how do suffering and joy help us connect with people and not robots?
David has worked as a copywriter and English Professor. He's also a published author, former Santa Clara County Poet Laureate, and the guitarist for the band ‘In the Ponds.’

In this Episode we'll hear from creative director, Forrest Bryant, on the topic of fostering trust on Creative teams, and helping individuals recognize their potential. This isn't something that ChatGPT can do. It needs to be lived – it needs to be experienced in the context of real life relationships.
To start off, Forrest shares his hilarious story about why you probably wouldn't want Gordon Ramsay as your creative director.
