00:00:05.754 --> 00:00:07.860
Greetings to all the listeners tuning in today.
00:00:08.160 --> 00:00:12.021
I'm Adam Nagus and you're listening or viewing to the Digi masters podcast.
00:00:12.680 --> 00:00:16.131
I'm excited to be your host for what promises to be a thrilling ride.
00:00:16.400 --> 00:00:19.670
Full of jaw-dropping insight into our digitally powered reality.
00:00:20.208 --> 00:00:29.658
Welcome to the DigiMasters podcast, a podcast covering the latest in digital news, AI, technology, leadership, and mentoring.
00:00:30.199 --> 00:00:33.868
Hi, I'm Oli Latham, VP Strategy for Workforce Skills at Pearson.
00:00:34.618 --> 00:00:36.488
World of work is rapidly changing.
00:00:36.709 --> 00:00:41.198
We need to consider what it means for roles, organizations, and whole countries.
00:00:42.118 --> 00:00:44.118
How do we navigate a skills based future?
00:00:45.478 --> 00:00:49.889
Hi, I'm Liam Bailey, the former CDO of IPO UK.
00:00:50.418 --> 00:00:56.149
Working in the public sector can be a challenge when it comes to attracting talent, using high salaries as an incentive.
00:00:56.569 --> 00:01:10.853
But we have had great success in keeping and attracting great people through groundbreaking programs such as grow our own, girls that code and also return to work when it comes to people who've been out of work for a while
00:01:14.054 --> 00:01:31.563
Hi Rob Saltrese from CxO Labs, in the past Fragmented careers have typically only really been for, very senior people who have been able to split their time between being non exec director, NED, advisor on different boards, in addition to their kind of current day jobs.
00:01:31.953 --> 00:01:41.353
But having a portfolio career and side gigs is now very much on the rise, becoming a huge pertinent topic, I think, for the next, four or five years to come.
00:01:41.483 --> 00:01:43.114
And CxO Lab is here to help.
00:01:44.263 --> 00:01:47.623
All previous major industrial revolutions have created jobs.
00:01:47.858 --> 00:01:49.069
and improve productivity.
00:01:49.838 --> 00:01:52.918
Will the latest generative AI explosion be any different?
00:01:57.429 --> 00:01:59.118
Visual Analytics changes the game.
00:01:59.188 --> 00:02:04.478
It infuses empathy and amazing UI and UX into the dashboards and reports.
00:02:05.049 --> 00:02:14.799
We don't really want to create business insights that are just created by individuals or teams that don't have empathy or industry knowledge of the areas that need the most data insights.
00:02:16.118 --> 00:02:22.778
I'm Carly Wilson, the Managing Director for Visual Intelligence, the product owner for a strategic workforce planning platform called Tobi.
00:02:23.209 --> 00:02:26.718
And I'm also one of the coaches for the ITF England Taekwondo National Team.
00:02:26.718 --> 00:02:29.239
Oh, and the founder of This Girl Kicks.
00:02:31.658 --> 00:02:40.128
I'm Andy McMurtrie and I am the Senior Data Product Manager at Key Insurance in the Lloyds of London insurance market.
00:02:40.729 --> 00:02:53.218
Uh, and the insurance industry really is transforming with the amount of data and variety of data and the use of data science and machine learning methods to really understand risks at a far more granular level.
00:02:53.218 --> 00:02:53.998
I'm Tia Cheng.
00:02:54.308 --> 00:02:55.479
I work at Gallagher Insurance.
00:02:55.989 --> 00:03:05.348
I'm a CDO and I've been working in data across the public and private sector for 18 years on everything from data transformation to involvement in the 100, 000 Genome Programme.
00:03:07.269 --> 00:03:11.489
Education policy is shaped by years of experience and tried and tested methods.
00:03:12.519 --> 00:03:18.088
However, in a world where the pace of change is so rapid, how do we reform quickly enough?
00:03:18.088 --> 00:03:21.308
Hi, I'm Max Radcliff.
00:03:22.179 --> 00:03:33.049
I've been working in analytics and data for the last 25 years, and I'm currently the analytics and data director at Newman, the men's health digital provider.
00:03:34.118 --> 00:03:36.938
Attracting great talent to your team takes more than salary.
00:03:37.258 --> 00:03:41.479
It takes a data brand, a story, or a narrative that is appealing to candidates.
00:03:42.199 --> 00:03:45.739
You need interesting projects and well designed roles that they can be successful in.
00:03:46.308 --> 00:03:48.919
But landing great candidates is only half the battle.
00:03:48.998 --> 00:03:51.128
Then you need to focus on how you retain them.
00:03:53.378 --> 00:03:56.239
People and workforce strategy has to be connected to demand.
00:03:56.588 --> 00:04:04.139
Yet in a world where in five years time jobs are yet to be defined, how do we train, source, and manage talent effectively?
00:04:05.468 --> 00:04:10.658
My path to becoming a CDO was unusual, having started life with a desire to become a pilot.
00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:16.908
Due to disability, I had to make a transition to a new career later in life, and that led me to Data.
00:04:17.389 --> 00:04:20.468
But how I made that move is a story you'll have to wait for.
00:04:21.817 --> 00:04:24.937
Let's delve right into our very first podcast on this channel.
00:04:25.358 --> 00:04:29.858
And find out what type of content we are planning on, including as we grow through 2024.
00:04:29.997 --> 00:04:37.108
On the Digi masters podcast, we'll explore topics that are revolutionary, like fractional careers and artificial intelligence.
00:04:37.497 --> 00:04:42.237
We'll discuss complex concepts, such as private equity, mergers, and acquisitions.
00:04:42.627 --> 00:04:45.507
User experience skills and clean energy advancements.
00:04:46.077 --> 00:04:52.978
Our goal is to straightforward pretty much to decode these fascinating areas while speaking directly with thought leaders.
00:04:53.247 --> 00:04:55.437
Who are shaking up their respective fields.
00:04:56.187 --> 00:05:04.978
Each week we will unmask different aspects of technological advancement from multiple perspectives, giving voice, not only to my own outlook.
00:05:05.247 --> 00:05:08.427
But also providing diverse viewpoints from across my network.
00:05:09.507 --> 00:05:14.517
Guests on our podcast, we'll include global C-level individuals and executive leaders.
00:05:14.877 --> 00:05:17.817
I've not only achieved digital mastery in their field.
00:05:18.148 --> 00:05:20.848
But also have the vision for what's coming next.
00:05:21.627 --> 00:05:28.767
We'll learn from their experiences, their successes, the challenges they faced, and importantly, the steps they took to overcome them.
00:05:29.937 --> 00:05:34.048
So why am I starting this podcast now at the end of 2023?
00:05:34.648 --> 00:05:40.588
Well this year alone, I received many requests for career mentoring, both at conferences and from my network.
00:05:41.247 --> 00:05:46.827
It's clear that there is a growing desire for guidance and career progression within the digital realm.
00:05:47.398 --> 00:05:51.747
We've made strides in technology more than we have, would have predicted just five years ago.
00:05:52.257 --> 00:05:55.288
And with this advancement comes and increasing needs for mentorship.
00:05:56.548 --> 00:05:59.757
As much as I relish one-to-one interaction with my mentees.
00:06:00.237 --> 00:06:06.447
I felt it was necessary to create a platform where knowledge gathered over decades could be shared more broadly.
00:06:06.747 --> 00:06:07.747
Hence this podcast.
00:06:07.887 --> 00:06:15.418
Every episode promises to provide new insights and provoke thought about important topical issues around digital technology.
00:06:16.048 --> 00:06:22.798
As we embark on this journey together, you'll gain a practical knowledge that you can implement directly into your own field.
00:06:23.697 --> 00:06:27.838
I thought long and hard regarding what type of podcast this should be.
00:06:28.497 --> 00:06:34.918
Um, marketing advice for starting new podcast is to go niche to build a core audience.
00:06:34.918 --> 00:06:42.507
For example, just keeping the content specific to AI, or even more specific, say computer vision or gen AI.
00:06:42.848 --> 00:06:45.098
However I wanted to also make a podcast.
00:06:45.158 --> 00:06:46.898
I would enjoy listening to myself.
00:06:47.377 --> 00:06:48.487
And the type of podcast.
00:06:48.548 --> 00:06:53.468
I always listened to have a broad, eclectic mix of subjects that cover many areas.
00:06:53.798 --> 00:06:55.867
,Which gives me the chance to explore topics.
00:06:55.898 --> 00:06:57.608
I wouldn't have even thought to search for.
00:06:58.718 --> 00:07:04.007
Examples of podcasts I regularly enjoy would be the BBC radio The infinite monkey cage.
00:07:04.517 --> 00:07:06.648
That show covers just science.
00:07:06.708 --> 00:07:10.668
And that is a huge broad umbrella from space to winemaking.
00:07:10.728 --> 00:07:14.237
Why people believe in conspiracy theories and the life of a fly.
00:07:14.958 --> 00:07:17.807
So I'm making this podcast to build a huge audience.
00:07:17.838 --> 00:07:22.968
Well, no, not really, but yes, I would love to create something many people enjoy.
00:07:23.267 --> 00:07:38.747
But I'm attempting at creating something that individuals in the corporate startup private equity world can enjoy, which is why we'll focus on explaining what digital transformation really is, how to identify if Gen AI I's a fad or something truly transformative.
00:07:39.317 --> 00:07:43.278
And., Why it's useful to have someone in your life sponsoring your career.
00:07:43.608 --> 00:07:46.398
As well as how to build a portfolio career like I have.
00:07:46.947 --> 00:07:48.478
and many of my other peers have done.
00:07:49.798 --> 00:08:04.437
So on deck for our 2024 series is a deep dive into the fractional career and unlocking secrets of building your portfolio career in partnership with the CXO lab we'll also be turning our attention towards the future of education.
00:08:04.887 --> 00:08:10.437
And discovering ways you can use gen AI and automation to craft your very own automated podcast generator.
00:08:11.487 --> 00:08:20.398
We're all navigating unprecedented levels of change in our industries, but rather than feel trapped by the magnitude of all let's navigate through it together.
00:08:20.817 --> 00:08:27.687
Sifting through layers of complexities and drawing conclusions that aid our collective journey towards digital mastery.
00:08:28.767 --> 00:08:30.987
Let me give you a peek into the upcoming episodes.
00:08:30.987 --> 00:08:38.878
We've lined up., we've got conversations with top tier leaders from diverse sectors, such as e-commerce media technology, clean energy.
00:08:39.177 --> 00:08:40.707

00:08:41.368 --> 00:08:52.977
We ready to analyze intriguing case studies from real-world businesses, delve into informative, how to guides on data analysis and application and dissect innovative, go to market strategies.
00:08:53.337 --> 00:08:55.677
That shapes substantial return of investments.
00:08:55.798 --> 00:09:00.238
When you actually attend conferences or do sponsorships or go to networking dinners.
00:09:01.467 --> 00:09:05.998
I believe there's no limits to how much we can learn when we come together with open minds.
00:09:06.538 --> 00:09:07.197
That's why?
00:09:07.288 --> 00:09:11.697

Earlier I mentioned what's coming up specifically in 2024.
00:09:40.077 --> 00:09:42.028
Your interest was duly noted.
00:09:42.057 --> 00:09:48.628
When I spoke about fractional career at the last global CXO Institute conference, where I was serving as the chairperson.
00:09:49.168 --> 00:09:57.807
Now I'll revisit this concept by turning it into a detailed series, bringing clarity through congenial chit-chat right here on this podcast.
00:09:58.648 --> 00:10:03.748
As part of this series, we'll uncover the exciting potential over fractional career.

Uh, trending approach to employment where professionals divide their weekly hours among several organizations or projects.

Rather than committing to just one full-time job.

00:10:56.577 --> 00:11:01.077
Even in this very platform, we'll explore how Gen AI or generative AI.
00:11:01.498 --> 00:11:04.378
Uh, an automation can help you create your own podcast.
00:11:04.378 --> 00:11:05.097

00:11:28.437 --> 00:11:36.748
I'm also eager to share intricate tale from my own advisory experience, we played pivotal roles in boosting successful M and A for businesses.
00:11:37.258 --> 00:11:44.337

Hi, I'm Oli Latham, VP Strategy for Workforce Skills at Pearson.
00:00:34.618 --> 00:00:36.488
World of work is rapidly changing.
00:00:36.709 --> 00:00:41.198
We need to consider what it means for roles, organizations, and whole countries.
00:00:42.118 --> 00:00:44.118
How do we navigate a skills based future?
00:00:45.478 --> 00:00:49.889
Hi, I'm Liam Bailey, the former CDO of IPO UK.
00:00:50.418 --> 00:00:56.149
Working in the public sector can be a challenge when it comes to attracting talent, using high salaries as an incentive.
00:00:56.569 --> 00:01:10.853
But we have had great success in keeping and attracting great people through groundbreaking programs such as grow our own, girls that code and also return to work when it comes to people who've been out of work for a while
00:01:14.054 --> 00:01:31.563
Hi Rob Saltrese from CxO Labs, in the past Fragmented careers have typically only really been for, very senior people who have been able to split their time between being non exec director, NED, advisor on different boards, in addition to their kind of current day jobs.
00:01:31.953 --> 00:01:41.353
But having a portfolio career and side gigs is now very much on the rise, becoming a huge pertinent topic, I think, for the next, four or five years to come.
00:01:41.483 --> 00:01:43.114
And CxO Lab is here to help.
00:01:44.263 --> 00:01:47.623
All previous major industrial revolutions have created jobs.
00:01:47.858 --> 00:01:49.069
and improve productivity.
00:01:49.838 --> 00:01:52.918
Will the latest generative AI explosion be any different?
00:01:57.429 --> 00:01:59.118
Visual Analytics changes the game.
00:01:59.188 --> 00:02:04.478
It infuses empathy and amazing UI and UX into the dashboards and reports.
00:02:05.049 --> 00:02:14.799
We don't really want to create business insights that are just created by individuals or teams that don't have empathy or industry knowledge of the areas that need the most data insights.
00:02:16.118 --> 00:02:22.778
I'm Carly Wilson, the Managing Director for Visual Intelligence, the product owner for a strategic workforce planning platform called Tobi.
00:02:23.209 --> 00:02:26.718
And I'm also one of the coaches for the ITF England Taekwondo National Team.
00:02:26.718 --> 00:02:29.239
Oh, and the founder of This Girl Kicks.
00:02:31.658 --> 00:02:40.128
I'm Andy McMurtrie and I am the Senior Data Product Manager at Key Insurance in the Lloyds of London insurance market.
00:02:40.729 --> 00:02:53.218
Uh, and the insurance industry really is transforming with the amount of data and variety of data and the use of data science and machine learning methods to really understand risks at a far more granular level.
00:02:53.218 --> 00:02:53.998
I'm Tia Cheng.
00:02:54.308 --> 00:02:55.479
I work at Gallagher Insurance.
00:02:55.989 --> 00:03:05.348
I'm a CDO and I've been working in data across the public and private sector for 18 years on everything from data transformation to involvement in the 100, 000 Genome Programme.
00:03:07.269 --> 00:03:11.489
Education policy is shaped by years of experience and tried and tested methods.
00:03:12.519 --> 00:03:18.088
However, in a world where the pace of change is so rapid, how do we reform quickly enough?
00:03:18.088 --> 00:03:21.308
Hi, I'm Max Radcliff.
00:03:22.179 --> 00:03:33.049
I've been working in analytics and data for the last 25 years, and I'm currently the analytics and data director at Newman, the men's health digital provider.
00:03:34.118 --> 00:03:36.938
Attracting great talent to your team takes more than salary.
00:03:37.258 --> 00:03:41.479
It takes a data brand, a story, or a narrative that is appealing to candidates.
00:03:42.199 --> 00:03:45.739
You need interesting projects and well designed roles that they can be successful in.
00:03:46.308 --> 00:03:48.919
But landing great candidates is only half the battle.
00:03:48.998 --> 00:03:51.128
Then you need to focus on how you retain them.
00:03:53.378 --> 00:03:56.239
People and workforce strategy has to be connected to demand.
00:03:56.588 --> 00:04:04.139
Yet in a world where in five years time jobs are yet to be defined, how do we train, source, and manage talent effectively?
00:04:05.468 --> 00:04:10.658
My path to becoming a CDO was unusual, having started life with a desire to become a pilot.
00:04:11.199 --> 00:04:16.908
Due to disability, I had to make a transition to a new career later in life, and that led me to Data.
00:04:17.389 --> 00:04:20.468
But how I made that move is a story you'll have to wait for.
00:04:21.817 --> 00:04:24.937
Let's delve right into our very first podcast on this channel.
00:04:25.358 --> 00:04:29.858
And find out what type of content we are planning on, including as we grow through 2024.
00:04:29.997 --> 00:04:37.108
On the Digi masters podcast, we'll explore topics that are revolutionary, like fractional careers and artificial intelligence.
00:04:37.497 --> 00:04:42.237
We'll discuss complex concepts, such as private equity, mergers, and acquisitions.
00:04:42.627 --> 00:04:45.507
User experience skills and clean energy advancements.
00:04:46.077 --> 00:04:52.978
Our goal is to straightforward pretty much to decode these fascinating areas while speaking directly with thought leaders.
00:04:53.247 --> 00:04:55.437
Who are shaking up their respective fields.
00:04:56.187 --> 00:05:04.978
Each week we will unmask different aspects of technological advancement from multiple perspectives, giving voice, not only to my own outlook.
00:05:05.247 --> 00:05:08.427
But also providing diverse viewpoints from across my network.
00:05:09.507 --> 00:05:14.517
Guests on our podcast, we'll include global C-level individuals and executive leaders.
00:05:14.877 --> 00:05:17.817
I've not only achieved digital mastery in their field.
00:05:18.148 --> 00:05:20.848
But also have the vision for what's coming next.
00:05:21.627 --> 00:05:28.767
We'll learn from their experiences, their successes, the challenges they faced, and importantly, the steps they took to overcome them.
00:05:29.937 --> 00:05:34.048
So why am I starting this podcast now at the end of 2023?
00:05:34.648 --> 00:05:40.588
Well this year alone, I received many requests for career mentoring, both at conferences and from my network.
00:05:41.247 --> 00:05:46.827
It's clear that there is a growing desire for guidance and career progression within the digital realm.
00:05:47.398 --> 00:05:51.747
We've made strides in technology more than we have, would have predicted just five years ago.
00:05:52.257 --> 00:05:55.288
And with this advancement comes and increasing needs for mentorship.
00:05:56.548 --> 00:05:59.757
As much as I relish one-to-one interaction with my mentees.
00:06:00.237 --> 00:06:06.447
I felt it was necessary to create a platform where knowledge gathered over decades could be shared more broadly.
00:06:06.747 --> 00:06:07.747
Hence this podcast.
00:06:07.887 --> 00:06:15.418
Every episode promises to provide new insights and provoke thought about important topical issues around digital technology.
00:06:16.048 --> 00:06:22.798
As we embark on this journey together, you'll gain a practical knowledge that you can implement directly into your own field.
00:06:23.697 --> 00:06:27.838
I thought long and hard regarding what type of podcast this should be.
00:06:28.497 --> 00:06:34.918
Um, marketing advice for starting new podcast is to go niche to build a core audience.
00:06:34.918 --> 00:06:42.507
For example, just keeping the content specific to AI, or even more specific, say computer vision or gen AI.
00:06:42.848 --> 00:06:45.098
However I wanted to also make a podcast.
00:06:45.158 --> 00:06:46.898
I would enjoy listening to myself.
00:06:47.377 --> 00:06:48.487
And the type of podcast.
00:06:48.548 --> 00:06:53.468
I always listened to have a broad, eclectic mix of subjects that cover many areas.
00:06:53.798 --> 00:06:55.867
,Which gives me the chance to explore topics.
00:06:55.898 --> 00:06:57.608
I wouldn't have even thought to search for.
00:06:58.718 --> 00:07:04.007
Examples of podcasts I regularly enjoy would be the BBC radio The infinite monkey cage.
00:07:04.517 --> 00:07:06.648
That show covers just science.
00:07:06.708 --> 00:07:10.668
And that is a huge broad umbrella from space to winemaking.
00:07:10.728 --> 00:07:14.237
Why people believe in conspiracy theories and the life of a fly.
00:07:14.958 --> 00:07:17.807
So I'm making this podcast to build a huge audience.
00:07:17.838 --> 00:07:22.968
Well, no, not really, but yes, I would love to create something many people enjoy.
00:07:23.267 --> 00:07:38.747
But I'm attempting at creating something that individuals in the corporate startup private equity world can enjoy, which is why we'll focus on explaining what digital transformation really is, how to identify if Gen AI I's a fad or something truly transformative.
00:07:39.317 --> 00:07:43.278
And., Why it's useful to have someone in your life sponsoring your career.
00:07:43.608 --> 00:07:46.398
As well as how to build a portfolio career like I have.
00:07:46.947 --> 00:07:48.478
and many of my other peers have done.
00:07:49.798 --> 00:08:04.437
So on deck for our 2024 series is a deep dive into the fractional career and unlocking secrets of building your portfolio career in partnership with the CXO lab we'll also be turning our attention towards the future of education.
00:08:04.887 --> 00:08:10.437
And discovering ways you can use gen AI and automation to craft your very own automated podcast generator.
00:08:11.487 --> 00:08:20.398
We're all navigating unprecedented levels of change in our industries, but rather than feel trapped by the magnitude of all let's navigate through it together.
00:08:20.817 --> 00:08:27.687
Sifting through layers of complexities and drawing conclusions that aid our collective journey towards digital mastery.
00:08:28.767 --> 00:08:30.987
Let me give you a peek into the upcoming episodes.
00:08:30.987 --> 00:08:38.878
We've lined up., we've got conversations with top tier leaders from diverse sectors, such as e-commerce media technology, clean energy.
00:08:39.177 --> 00:08:40.707
And the world of digital analytics.
00:08:41.368 --> 00:08:52.977
We ready to analyze intriguing case studies from real-world businesses, delve into informative, how to guides on data analysis and application and dissect innovative, go to market strategies.
00:08:53.337 --> 00:08:55.677
That shapes substantial return of investments.
00:08:55.798 --> 00:09:00.238
When you actually attend conferences or do sponsorships or go to networking dinners.
00:09:01.467 --> 00:09:05.998
I believe there's no limits to how much we can learn when we come together with open minds.
00:09:06.538 --> 00:09:07.197
That's why?
00:09:07.288 --> 00:09:11.697

Earlier I mentioned what's coming up specifically in 2024.
00:09:40.077 --> 00:09:42.028
Your interest was duly noted.
00:09:42.057 --> 00:09:48.628
When I spoke about fractional career at the last global CXO Institute conference, where I was serving as the chairperson.
00:09:49.168 --> 00:09:57.807
Now I'll revisit this concept by turning it into a detailed series, bringing clarity through congenial chit-chat right here on this podcast.
00:09:58.648 --> 00:10:03.748
As part of this series, we'll uncover the exciting potential over fractional career.
00:10:04.197 --> 00:10:10.768
Uh, trending approach to employment where professionals divide their weekly hours among several organizations or projects.
00:10:11.128 --> 00:10:13.798
Rather than committing to just one full-time job.

We will discuss how traditional models are rapidly morphing into digitally aimed approaches.
00:10:38.788 --> 00:10:41.878

00:10:53.967 --> 00:10:56.518
Our next topic aimed at leveraging technology.
00:10:56.577 --> 00:11:01.077
Even in this very platform, we'll explore how Gen AI or generative AI.
00:11:01.498 --> 00:11:04.378
Uh, an automation can help you create your own podcast.
00:11:04.378 --> 00:11:05.097

00:11:28.437 --> 00:11:36.748
I'm also eager to share intricate tale from my own advisory experience, we played pivotal roles in boosting successful M and A for businesses.
00:11:37.258 --> 00:11:44.337
