(The Enlightened Executive) hosted by Susan Drumm with guest Jay Baer, created/recorded 2026-08-10. The episode is an interview-style conversation about leadership and growth in the age of AI, arguing that as AI becomes ubiquitous the true differentiator is human touch and bespoke customer interactions. Jay and Susan discuss concrete examples and tactics (customer-journey audits, moments that delight customers like TD Bank, Chewy, Otis example), trade-offs of automation vs. human investment, Jay’s career pivot to Tequila Report, work-life balance, and practical steps leaders can take to break patterns and reallocate time freed by AI.
