EP 277 People-First Leadership in the Age of AI
HOW TO BUILD A CULTURE THAT THRIVES
Duncan Brand is an executive coach, leadership consultant, founder of Intrinsic Leader, and author of Mind the Gap. Duncan helps organizations build people-first cultures by developing stronger leaders, creating healthier workplaces, and preparing businesses for the future of work in an AI-driven world.
After decades of leading organizational transformation, Duncan believes the greatest competitive advantage isn’t technology, it’s leadership. His work focuses on helping leaders strengthen what happens beneath the surface: purpose, values, emotional intelligence, and the ability to bring out the best in people.
