In this podcast episode, Cesar Viana-Teague Founder & Principal Consultant at NextLevel Consulting discusses the intricacies of change management, particularly in the context of AI integration within organizations. He introduces the APEEE model, which stands for Analyze, Plan, Execute, and Evaluate, as a structured approach to managing change effectively. The discussion emphasizes the importance of communication, stakeholder engagement, and addressing employee anxieties during transitions. Common challenges faced by organizations of all sizes are highlighted, along with the evolving role of AI in driving change across various sectors. The session concludes with a Q&A segment, addressing audience inquiries about change management practices.
In this podcast conversation, Mariano Garcia-Valino, Founder, Chief Engineer and CEO of Axenya and host Michael Bernzweig discuss the evolution of medicine and the role of AI in transforming healthcare. He highlights the shift from infectious diseases to chronic diseases, the unsustainable growth of healthcare costs, and the need for technology to improve patient care. The discussion also touches on the challenges faced by the US healthcare system, particularly the lack of primary care and the fragmentation of services.
In this podcast episode, Securely Founder Alan Ward and host Michael Bernzweig discuss the strategic implementation of AI within organizations, emphasizing the importance of a structured approach through the GROW framework. He highlights the distinction between revolutionary and evolutionary technologies, the necessity of growth through people, and the key traits required for successful AI integration, including grit, resourcefulness, observance, and a winning mindset. Ward concludes by addressing common misconceptions about AI's role in the workforce and the need for educational shifts in mindset to maximize AI's impact.
Across strategy, healthcare, and talent, a common pattern emerges around AI. Leaders who pair clear frameworks with data-driven experiments move fastest. Those who ignore change fatigue, fragmentation, and skills gaps stall out. These three episodes map where to focus first in 2026.
