Rishad Tobaccowala on AI, Creativity, and Work

This show is a conversation with Rishad Tobaccowala, a genuine big thinker who helps organizations stay relevant and innovative during times of great change. His bestselling book, Restoring the Soul of Business: Staying Human in the Age of Data, ricocheted across c-suites and boardrooms with his message of how to be smart with data while staying true to human values. His newsletter, called The Future does Not Fit in the Containers of the Past, is read by over 30,000 global leaders each week. Rishad is also host of the What Next podcast, where he speaks with leaders across business, technology, academia and the arts on how to make sense of the change is transforming us all. In this show, Rashad and I will explore the impact of artificial intelligence on the creative industries as a leading indicator of what's in store for the rest of society. We'll use a three-part framework that we drew from one of his newsletters. Roots & Wings, Story & Spreadsheet, and Core & Edge Power to explore how individual creators and organizations can move beyond the hype surrounding AI, and focus on the real changes it brings.
