Work is changing faster than most companies can understand it. But behind every new technology, performance metric, and management trend is something far more complicated: people.
On Work, Measured, Silicon Valley operator and exited CEO Imran Syed sits down with founders, researchers, and unconventional thinkers to explore how work really works.
Imran led the turnaround of a technology company through a massive exit. At the heart of that journey were people, and some of the hardest decisions a leader can make about them. Now, as he builds AI for human performance, he digs into the questions most organizations avoid.
Why do talented people disengage? What separates exceptional teams from average ones? Where will AI make us better, and where will human judgment matter more than ever?
Candid conversations. Unexpected ideas. Practical insights for anyone building a company, leading a team, or trying to understand what comes next.
Guests have included Gary A. Bolles, Dr. Daniel Hulme (Chief AI Officer at WPP), Stefano Puntoni of Wharton, Dr. Margie Warrell, and Victoria Tomlinson. New episodes on Fridays.
