Have you ever considered that your best intentions as a leader can lead to self-deception and undermine your effectiveness? Kevin speaks with Victoria Trammel about how self-deception ties to our identity as leaders.

She explains how leaders can act in ways that contradict their stated values, denying their team members growth and opportunity. Victoria believes, as leaders, we need to stay curious and see our team as individuals with different needs and goals.

What does it take to build a superintelligent enterprise? Dr. Nada Sanders shares insights from her latest research on what it means to create a superintelligent organization. Contrary to popular belief, it's not about only relying on advanced technology. Instead, the combination of AI and human judgment drives success. Nada and Kevin discuss Kasparovās Law, which emphasizes that an average person with a good process and AI can outperform even superior computers or individuals without the right systems. Nada believes the key to long-term success in a superintelligent enterprise lies in blending technology with human empathy, communication, and expertise.
