Cloudforce and the Future of SaaS (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Remember the SaaS apocalypse? Earlier this year, the idea sent software stocks tumbling as people questioned what happens to traditional SaaS companies if AI reduces headcount, eliminates per-seat licensing, and starts doing the work those platforms were built to handle. Now, Salesforce seems to be leaning directly into that threat. In this episode of Leading Change in the Wild, I unpack Cloudforce, the new expanded partnership between Salesforce and Anthropic, and why I think it tells us someth
Cognitive Surrender and the Hidden Cost of AI (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What happens when we stop questioning AI and start trusting its answers more than our own thinking?

As companies rethink control, security, and data ownership, a new conversation is emerging about who should own the future of artificial intelligence. Here's what I unp
Are We Replacing Trust with Surveillance? (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What happens when technology stops being a tool for trust and starts becoming a tool for surveillance? In this episode of Leading Change in the Wild, I explore the growing controversy surrounding Flock Safety cameras and why the debate extends far beyond law enforcement. Because this is not just a story about surveillance cameras. It is a conversation about what happens when organizations, governments, and leaders begin relying on technology to monitor people instead of building trust with them.
