What does it really take to lead with confidence in the age of AI? And how can leaders embrace innovation without burning out themselves—or their teams?

In this episode of The Culture Coach Podcast, Wendy sits down with Victoria Mensch, Founder and CEO of the Silicon Valley Executive Academy, to explore the intersection of AI, leadership, and workplace culture.

Victoria shares her perspective on why AI adoption isn’t just a technical challenge—it’s a leadership competency. She explains how executives can cultivate agility, emotional intelligence, and a culture of experimentation to help their organizations thrive in times of disruption.

You’ll also hear Victoria’s practical strategies for preventing burnout, including her Micro Joy Method for bringing more energy, resilience, and balance into daily life.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

• Why AI transformation is less about technology and more about people and culture
• How to embrace a culture of experimentation without fear of failure
• The leadership traits that will matter most in the next 5 years
• Why boundaries, gratitude, and micro-joys are essential to fighting burnout
• How leaders can model self-leadership to create burnout-proof organizations
