In this episode of The Leadership Shift, Nicola Martin FBCS explores Insight, the I in her SHIFT framework: Situation, Human, Insight, Forward and Take Action.

Drawing on examples from modern technology teams, Nicola looks at what happens when people unknowingly become the contingency plan, why assumptions about AI adoption can hide what’s really going on, and why understanding the ‘why’ matters before deciding what to do next.

For people working and leading in technology who want to think differently about their work, careers and the challenges they face.
