Summary

AI is changing every career, and the CEO of Microsoft just told us something that should change how you think about yours. Plus what the CEO of 7-Eleven, Microsoft's Satya Nadella, and the Head of AI at EY are really saying about the future of work, AI for women, and staying relevant in the age of AI ____________ ✨May’s 60 Day Bold Move Career Accelerator✨ Learn More here 👉 https://www.georgiehubbard.com/apply/may ____________ In this episode, Georgie and Lou debrief two major events: Lou's experience at the Microsoft AI Tour, where Satya Nadella delivered a keynote on the future of agentic AI, and Georgie's 10th Sisterhood Social featuring Fiona Hayes (CEO of 7-Eleven Australia), Julie Watkins (Chief People Officer at UniSuper), and Erin Ashton (Head of AI Enablement at EY). What they discovered was fascinating. And a little bit unsettling.

This episode is about understanding that gap. It's about knowing what's actually happening inside organisations right now. It's about where to focus your energy. And it's about making sure you don't burn out while trying to keep up. ____________ Timestamps 00:00 The CEOs you need to hear from right now 00:45 Inside Georgie's Sisterhood Social: Fiona Hayes, Julie Watkins & EY 03:37 The two types of women in every AI conversation 04:47 Adopting AI vs adapting because of it (Lou's framework) 07:13 Why most organisations are still scratching the surface 11:10 The cognitive load crisis: why AI is leaving women exhausted 15:59 What Georgie's wearable revealed about AI and sleep 18:21 Satya Nadella: AI is the new fax-to-email shift 19:57 The New Zealand Telehealth story: AI holding people while they wait 23:45 Why human skills now matter more than technical skills 25:59 The question that made the whole room go silent 31:15 Microsoft, neural implants, and resisting becoming machines 32:51 Why your zigzag career is your greatest asset 35:05 Why sticking with one AI tool is the smartest move ____________ 📚 The Bold Move: https://www.theboldmovebook.com ____________ Connect with Me: 🔵 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/georgiehubbard/ 🟪 Instagram: http://instagram.com/georgielhubbard ♦️Website: https://www.georgiehubbard.com ____________ Connect with Lou Compagnone: 🔵 LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/loucompagnone/ ____________ 🟣 What you'll learn: Why Satya Nadella compared AI to the shift from fax to email — and what that means for your career Adopting AI vs adapting because of it — Lou's framework for where you actually are right now What Fiona Hayes, Julie Watkins, and Erin Ashton (EY) said about staying relevant in the age of AI The cognitive load crisis: why AI is leaving women exhausted, and how Georgie's wearable proved it Why human skills now matter more than technical skills — especially if you don't come from tech The question that made the whole room go silent: can you have a family AND a senior career?
