What happens when you’re running at 150 miles per hour but the people around you can’t keep up?

In this candid conversation, AI advisor and CX leader Simon Kriss opens up about the career-defining mistake that blindsided him, moving too fast for his team and leaving them struggling in his wake.

From the high-pressure world of airlines to advising organisations on the future of AI, Simon shares:

• How a “strategic misfit” conversation with his boss changed everything
• Why leaders need to go beyond the “Are you okay?” surface check-in
• How to spot the quietest person in the room and why their voice matters most
• The strategies he uses now to keep teams aligned while still moving at speed

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re bringing your team with you or just dragging them along, this episode is essential listening.
