“We are asking leaders to solve 21st century problems with 20th century mental models.” That line from futurist Steve Fisher stopped us in our tracks during our recent conversation on The Mindset Economy podcast.

Being busy and being valuable are not the same thing. In our latest episode of The Mindset Economy podcast, Chris Hirst makes a distinction that many organisations struggle with. Activity is easy to reward because it’s visible. Real contribution is harder to measure.

Ideas now travel at algorithmic speed. Social media doesn’t just spread information. It accelerates belief formation and activates people faster. What does that mean for leadership and judgment? Hear more as hosts Jean Gomes and Scott Allender talk to Sarah Housley on The Mindset Economy podcast.

What happens when we are no longer the ones in control? Much of the current conversation assumes that AI will remain a tool, something we guide, shape, and direct. But that assumption is starting to feel less certain the further we look ahead.

Do annual performance reviews actually improve performance? In this clip from The Mindset Economy podcast, our guest Chris Hirst questions whether many formal review processes have become exercises in bureaucracy rather than meaningful conversations that genuinely help people improve.

How do we tell the difference between values that guide us and ideologies that quietly constrain us? That question sits at the heart of our next conversation on The Mindset Economy.

How much of your behaviour do you think is already predictable? Every interaction, every click, every decision leaves a trace. Over time, those traces start to form a pattern and when combined with enough data, patterns become models. Subscribe NOW wherever you get your podcasts.

What if creativity is not about talent, but about how willing you are to play with rules? Creativity plays with rules. It breaks assumptions. That flexibility builds resilience. #Creativity, #Resilience, #Mindset

What if the biggest constraint on AI is not intelligence, but energy? Much of the conversation focuses on what AI can do. Less attention is given to what makes it possible in the first place. Every model, every system, every advancement depends on computing power, and that depends on energy.

AI is a suitcase word. Everyone uses it. Few mean the same thing. In the workplace, AI isn’t abstract. It’s present. It’s shaping decisions, roles and expectations daily. But until we unpack what we mean by it, we risk reacting instead of thinking.

$1 billion taxpayer dollars for Trump's ballroom. The Epstein files. Attacks on voting rights and civil liberties. Judiciary Republicans have ignored it all, and instead held a hearing to peddle Islamophobic conspiracy theories. Shame.

RUTTE: Europe with UK, Turkey, Norway has over 500 million people. We're facing adversary in Russia with about 140 million people. And we're dependent on one ally with about 350 million people to ensure we can defend ourselves against Russia. That's not sustainable in long term.

Q: “Should 1/6 rioters get taxpayer money?” Tennessee’s Senator Bill Hagerty: *doesn’t say NO, calls himself a ‘VICTIM’ (because he was talking to Trump as Trump tried to overthrow the election)*
