    19. Why Removing a Toxic Leader Isn’t Enough | Dr. Bryan Hughes

    Dr. Bryan Hughes studies something organizations often overlook: what happens after a toxic leader leaves. In this episode of Technically Human, Bryan and I talk about why removing one person doesn’t automatically repair a damaged culture, how toxic leaders can manipulate both employees and senior executives, and why organizations have to intentionally rebuild trust and accountability. We also explore Stephen M.R. Covey’s idea of the “trust tax” - when trust breaks down, everything takes longer and costs more - and what leaders can do to begin rebuilding it. Then we bring the conversation into the age of AI. As technology takes over more of the dashboards, metrics, and administrative work, Brian argues that leaders have an opportunity to spend more time doing what technology cannot: knowing their people, listening, building relationships, developing others, and creating the conditions for people to do their best work. We close with a rapid-fire leadership round, including one habit leaders should stop, one they should start, and the leadership skill Brian believes is still underrated. “Leadership is not about controlling people. It’s about stewarding humanity.”

    18. AI Is Not a Technology Problem. It’s a Management Problem | Patrick Bell

    AI may look like a technology initiative, but Patrick Bell argues that its biggest challenges are human and managerial. Patrick is a business-growth strategist, AI transformation practitioner, author, and doctoral researcher whose career has taken him through 55 countries and across business, education, consulting, and software. In this conversation, we explore why AI puts simultaneous pressure on leadership, teams, structures, and governance, and why small organizational “wobbles” become much harder to control when the pace accelerates. Patrick also shares what employees can do to remain valuable, why universities should raise the standard instead of simply banning AI, how leaders can evaluate AI consultants, and what humane leadership looks like when technology changes someone’s role. We also discuss Patrick and David Lively’s book, The Parrot and the Architect, and the difference between someone who repeats the language of AI and someone who can show what they have actually built.

    17. The 5 Human Skills That Will Matter Most in the Age of AI

    If everyone has access to the same AI tools, what will set you apart? It probably will not be knowing the most prompts. It will be the human capabilities you bring to the work. In this solo episode, I break down five skills that will matter most in the age of AI: adaptability, emotional intelligence, leadership and influence, critical thinking and judgment, and learning agility. I also share practical ways to strengthen each one, from asking better questions and listening more closely to testing assumptions and learning through experience. You do not need to work on all five at once. Choose one and practice it intentionally this week. Technology may change how we work, but our humanity will determine how we lead.

    16. The Wisdom Economy: Leadership and the Human Skills AI Can’t Replace | Mark Vincent

    What happens when a leader becomes the limit of the team? In this episode of Technically Human, Dr. Tracy Shroyer talks with organizational development consultant Mark Vincent about succession planning, the three turns of leadership, and what it means to lead toward future value. Mark explains why “I’ll just do it myself” may be one of the most expensive sentences a leader says, and why developing someone who can step into your work creates capacity for the organization and room for your own growth. Tracy and Mark also explore what comes after the knowledge economy. As AI makes information easier to access, the distinctly human capabilities of judgment, creativity, deep listening, emotional intelligence, relationships, and non-anxious leadership may become more valuable than ever. A thoughtful conversation for leaders, business owners, HR and talent professionals, and anyone considering what their next chapter of leadership requires.

    11. The Career Psychology Rabbit Hole - Part 1

    I've been down a lot of learning rabbit holes over the years, but this one feels different. Lately, I've found myself becoming increasingly curious about the field of career psychology, the study of why we think, feel, and behave the way we do in relation to our work. In this first episode of a new series, I share a framework I've been developing that explores three layers of career development: • Job Search Advice• Career Coaching• Career Psychology While most career conversations focus on resumes, LinkedIn profiles, interviewing, and networking, I've started to wonder whether the real challenges many professionals face run much deeper. Questions about identity, confidence, purpose, self-trust, meaning, and career decisions may be at the heart of what keeps people feeling stuck. Join me as I begin exploring the foundational theories, ideas, and questions behind career psychology, not as an expert with all the answers, but as a lifelong learner inviting you along for the journey.
