Scaling teams in the age of AI may seem like a race in efficiency, but the truth is - teams can’t make it without empathy. In the launch episode of The Future Is Human podcast, host Naomi Trickey sits down with Meri Williams, seasoned CTO and chair of LeadDev, to explore what makes teams truly successful. Listen in for their thoughts on why vulnerability and psychological safety are non-negotiable in intense work environments, how neurodivergence and lived experience reshape leadership and the critical strategies for building diverse teams that outperform homogeneous ones.
The takeaway is simple: succeeding in tech is less about the shiny tools at your disposal and WAY more about making care, curiosity and critical thinking (deeply human traits) your competitive advantage.
