AI as a Mirror, Not a Replacement

Описание: What if ChatGPT could help you think more clearly before you speak instead of just helping you sound polished?

Karin Reed sits down with Michael Shehane, founder of InStride Leadership, to explore how leaders are using ChatGPT to sharpen clarity, strengthen judgment, and communicate with more intention under pressure. Drawing from his work with AI leaders in Silicon Valley, Michael explains why traditional preparation habits no longer match the pace of modern leadership and what actually helps now.

This episode reframes AI as a thinking partner rather than a replacement for human judgment. It shows how ChatGPT can support better decisions, more confident communication, and more honest self-reflection without stripping away presence or authenticity. For leaders who want to communicate clearly while staying fully human, this conversation offers a practical and timely perspective on what comes next.
