    Apr 14 2026

  • This CEO is Winning the AI Race I Georg Ell

    This CEO is Winning the AI Race I Georg Ell
    Apr 7 2026
    What do you mean, "I'm a CEO... and now I'm coding?" Georg Ell, CEO of Phrase, hadn't written code since he was 15. Then his CFO demoed a custom-built app — and Georg felt "utterly inadequate." That evening he downloaded Claude. Six weeks later: 200,000 lines committed, 8 apps built, and a radically different understanding of what leadership means in the AI era.

  • Trust, Crisis & Why Elon Left Money on the Table

    Trust, Crisis & Why Elon Left Money on the Table
    Mar 31 2026
    Spencer Penn evacuated his engineer from Ukraine the day before Russia invaded. What he did next — and why it worked — reveals more about leadership trust than most books on the subject. Penn is CEO and co-founder of LightSource, a procurement AI company that grew from two people in a garage to 64 employees. In this episode, he traces the company's origin to a $30 billion problem he watched firsthand at Tesla — car parts sourced via spreadsheets and email — and the moment he hired a Ukrainian developer off GitHub who would later need to get out of the country overnight. Penn and Felicia Shakiba debate whether Elon Musk could have been even more successful with a different leadership approach, what separates mature from immature leadership mindsets, and a reframe on strengths that most leaders get completely backwards: the capability that comes easiest to you is almost certainly your highest ROI — and most people are blind to it. Chapters: 00:00 The Genesis of LightSource 04:35 Finding the First Believers 14:45 Building Trust Through Adversity 19:15 The Gift of Opportunity 21:54 Balancing Leadership Decisions 24:15 The Importance of Values in Leadership 25:58 New vs. Experienced Leaders 29:15 The Complexity of Leadership Traits 31:55 The Impact of Leadership Style 36:30 Strengths vs. Weaknesses in Leadership Subscribe to the LeaderbookAI Podcast for conversations with leaders shaping the future of work, leadership, and AI.
