The Business of Being Brilliant podcast

S10 E19: 'How workers, young and old, can thrive amidst AI'
with Rob Garlick

Monday 29 September 2025




About this episode

In this episode, I explore how AI is reshaping job opportunities, job quality, and the very skills we need to succeed—looking at who’s winning, who’s struggling, and where the biggest opportunities lie. I also ask: what role should leaders play in helping employees adapt with confidence and purpose?

 

I’m delighted to be joined by Rob Garlick - author, speaker, consultant and coach, with over 30 years of experience in investment banking, research and leadership. Formerly Head of Innovation & Technology at Citi Global Insights, Rob has advised executive decision-makers worldwide, published extensively on innovation, and now helps leaders and workers navigate the future of work.
