For years, I’ve said the same thing: Talent acquisition needs to be reimagined. Not tweaked Not “optimised.” Reimagined. And now, with AI accelerating change, organisations are running headlong into a reality they can’t ignore anymore: The old hiring system was already creaking. Now it’s colliding with a very different world of work. A world shaped […]

In March, I completed a 5-city roadshow with mortgage brokers through Connective, and three things became very clear. Most mortgage brokers are still experimenting with AI. Very few are using it in a way that is strategic, secure, and commercially useful. This isn’t surprising – it’s what I’m finding across all industries. In this video,

I saved the worst for last! lol Seriously, my engineering and accounting friends may absolutely love this feature. You can tell in the video that I wasn’t overly enthused. But if you know me you know why. Detail…am I right? Anyway, give it a go. I’d LOVE to know what you think!

I spent the long Easter weekend diving into the 2026 The Australian Financial Review BOSS Best Places to Work Awards. What stood out to me wasn’t the list itself. It was the pattern beneath it. Because when you look closely at what actually earned these organisations recognition, you don’t see incremental improvement on the standard

Standing on the shore of Green Bay on Easter Monday, watching ice break apart on the water. I’d left Australia two weeks ago — heading into autumn. Here in Wisconsin, they’re heading into spring. The seasons in transition. The old giving way to the new. And as I stood there, Trump was on Truth Social

The Easter Sunday Today spot where we discussed:🔹 Impact of the Iranian conflict on Australia🔹 Workplace scenarios playing out overseas to reduce demand on fuel🔹 Why is Australia’s situation different and how it could change🔹 How will mandated action, should it be required, differ from COVID and how will it be approached this time🔹 Danger

Need something to play with over the Easter Weekend? Try NotebookLM’s Infographic feature. I warn you – it’s addictive! In fact, all of NotebookLM is addictive! I just completed a 5 city road show with a mortgage broker aggregator where I customised AI demos specifically for the industry. I showed them how to use Fyxer

PwC s CEO just told their partners, adopt AI or you’re out. Awkward timing. Because PwC’s own research, published just weeks earlier, found that 56% of companies already using AI have seen neither higher revenues nor lower costs. Not sceptics. Not laggards. Organizations actively using AI are getting nothing. That’s the part most of the

Recently I’ve been experimenting with leveling up my prompt engineering – and I have to say the difference in the thoroughness, competeness and quality has been nothing short of outstanding. I used to prompt by throwing random into the chat box and hoping something useful crawls out. That’s not prompting. That’s haste with punctuation. Now,

If you’re reading about Atlassian’s 1,600 layoffs thinking, “That couldn’t happen to me,” I’d gently push back. This was one of the most admired employer brands in tech. Five core values on the website. A culture people actively chose. And then came the pre-recorded video, the email, and a few hours on Slack to say
