Most leaders screw this up (even though it’s free) ⤵ We overcomplicate motivation. Think it takes big budgets, fancy perks, or endless incentives. But the truth? The most powerful motivator doesn’t cost a thing: Let your team know they matter. Not through words alone—but through actions. Here’s how real leaders do it: 1/ ➠ Motivation isn’t money. It’s meaning. ➝ People don’t leave companies. They leave people. ➝ And mostly, they leave leaders who don’t give a damn. ↳ If your team feels invisible, don’t expect them to perform. So before you throw another pizza party, try presence instead. 2/ ➠ Want a team that goes the extra mile? ➝ Show up to 1-on-1s like they matter. ➝ Ditch the distractions. ↳ Actually listen. Listening is louder than any motivational speech. 3/ ➠ Growth matters more than perks. ➝ People want to move forward. ➝ Create a path. ↳ Help them walk it. When people see a future, they stay. 4/ ➠ “Thank you” is underrated leadership. ➝ Say it. ➝ Mean it. ↳ Often. Recognition costs nothing, but pays dividends. 5/ ➠ Respect isn’t earned, it’s given first. ➝ Don’t fake kindness. ➝ Stay respectful—even when it's hard. ↳ That’s leadership. Consistency beats charisma every time. 6/ ➠ Feedback without action is a joke. ➝ Ask. ➝ Listen. ↳ Do something with it. It’s not feedback if nothing changes. Your team isn’t asking for more money. They’re asking to be treated like they matter. ▶ What if we lead like we mean it? ▶ What happens when leaders stop performing and start listening? ▶ How often do you feel seen by your boss? // Repost this ⇄ // Follow me for daily posts on emerging tech and growth: https://lnkd.in/gqzS_9Tf

The End of Language Barriers Is Here. ⤵ We’ve hit a tipping point. AI just did what no conference call, translator, or interpreter ever could - it made the world truly speak one language. This isn't a "coming soon" moment. It’s already happening. And if you're in business, you're either using this shift to go global... Or you're waiting for your competition to translate right past you. 1/ ➠ Real-Time AI Interpreting Just Killed the Middleman Tech doesn’t ask for time off - and it just took over translation. ➝ Interpreters aren’t future-proof ➝ AI doesn't sleep, stall, or charge hourly ➝ It's always on - in every language ↳ Real-time transcription = instant access Let’s be real: humans can’t keep up. And now they don’t need to. 2/ ➠ Businesses Just Got a Passport to the World This isn’t just convenience - it’s expansion, instantly. ➝ Startups can pitch in Tokyo, then sell in Paris ➝ No translators = no lag ➝ No lag = more trust ↳ Trust builds markets faster Global is no longer a strategy. It’s the new default. 3/ ➠ The Interpreter Industry Is on Fire Progress always creates winners - and ashes. ➝ Most jobs won’t migrate, they’ll disappear ➝ AI wrappers that don’t innovate? Toast ➝ Don’t automate a dead model ↳ Reinvent or die trying Wrapping AI around a broken service? That’s not disruption — that’s denial. 4/ ➠ Google Meet Just Leveled the Playing Field What used to cost thousands now takes seconds. ➝ Live captions + translations = new default ➝ Global hiring? Instantly easier ➝ No more “language barrier” excuse ↳ Collaboration is now borderless No language gap? No more excuses. 5/ ➠ But This Isn’t Just Tech - It’s Transformation AI didn’t just give us tools - it gave us fluency. ➝ Communication is your currency ➝ Miscommunication is now a choice ➝ Speak to win, or stay unheard ↳ AI speaks fluent opportunity If you can speak, you can sell. Now everyone can speak. In every language. ▶ What happens when everyone understands everything? ▶ What’s your edge when no one has a language barrier? ▶ Who speaks for your business when AI speaks better? ▶ Are you building, or waiting to be disrupted? // Repost this ⇄ // Source: Google I/O 2025 // Follow me for daily posts on emerging tech and growth: https://lnkd.in/gqzS_9Tf

GenAI won’t take your job. It’ll turn it into something you didn’t sign up for. ⤵ Most people fear job loss. But the real disruption is subtler - it's job mutation. AI isn’t firing people. It’s reshaping what they do, behind the scenes: 1/ ➠ Exposure is Everywhere ➝ 1 in 4 jobs already show signs of GenAI exposure ➝ Clerical roles carry the highest risk ➝ Women are hit harder than men ↳ In high-income countries, nearly 10% of women work in top-risk roles The automation wave isn't just a tech issue - it's a gender and equity issue too. 2/ ➠ Don’t Fear Unemployment - Fear Restructuring ➝ Full job replacement is rare ➝ GenAI automates tasks, not entire roles ➝ It eats away at predictable, repeatable work ↳ Think: invoices, form responses, basic research This is about transformation, not elimination. 3/ ➠ What’s Vulnerable? ➝ Cognitive and white-collar jobs are on the frontline ➝ Professionals, tech workers, clerks - all at risk ➝ GenAI handles digital workflows fast ↳ The more structured your work, the more exposed you are It's not just about low-skill labor anymore. 4/ ➠ This Isn’t a Forecast - It’s Data ➝ Over 30,000 tasks analyzed across 2,500 occupations ➝ 1,640 workers surveyed, plus expert validation ➝ GenAI predictions refined with human judgment ↳ This is the most detailed global exposure index yet These numbers aren’t guesses - they’re grounded. 5/ ➠ Forget Replacement - This Is Transformation ➝ Jobs won’t disappear, but they’ll evolve ➝ Your job title may survive ➝ But the content? That’s already changing ↳ Adaptation isn’t optional - it’s the new baseline The shift is already happening. Quietly. Relentlessly. What GenAI leaves behind may still be called “your job” - but it may no longer feel like it. ▶ What happens when GenAI handles half your to-do list? ▶ Does your value shrink, or shift? ▶ Can you compete with a tool that works 24/7? ▶ What if your job still exists - but without you? // Repost this ⇄ // Source: ILO Working Paper 140 – Generative AI and Jobs (May 2025) // Follow me for daily posts on emerging tech and growth: https://lnkd.in/gqzS_9Tf

The Funnel’s gone! Google took it. ⤵ For 20 years, e-com followed a playbook: Get found. Build a funnel. Convert. You ranked on Google. Optimized your SEO. Fought for every click. But this last week? Google made it obsolete. Here’s what just changed - and why your customer pipeline may be gone: 1/ ➠ The Real Power Move Isn’t Checkout ➝ This isn’t about payments. ➝ It’s about owning the buyer. ↳ That’s where value compounds. ➝ The sale now starts - and ends - at discovery. ➝ Whoever owns that, wins. ↳ And Google owns it now. ➝ While others watched UX... ➝ Google took the top of the funnel. ↳ And closed the loop in one move. 2/ ➠ Shopify Dropped 5% - Within Hours ➝ Right after Google’s AI shopping reveal. ➝ Wall Street saw the risk. ↳ And priced it in fast. ➝ Checkout now happens in search. ➝ No product page. No redirect. ↳ No Shopify involved. ➝ $138B in fees? At risk. ➝ $37B in fraud tools? Obsolete. ↳ $7.8B in checkout tech? Displaced. ➝ Google isn’t streamlining. ➝ It’s removing the middle. ↳ The stack is collapsing. 3/ ➠ Your Site? Just a Data Feed Now ➝ SEO is now a luxury tax. ➝ Landing pages are dead weight. ↳ Product data is your new storefront. ➝ AI doesn’t care about your brand story. ➝ It scans for facts, not fluff. ↳ Loyalty flows to the agent. ➝ CRO is outdated. ➝ Visibility is the metric. ↳ Discovery is conversion. 4/ ➠ This Isn’t a UX Shift - It’s a Stack Rewrite ➝ The funnel is gone. ➝ Checkout = search result. ↳ UX is irrelevant now. ➝ Google’s AI is the concierge. ➝ You’re just another tile. ↳ The funnel belongs to Google. 5/ ➠ 4 Big Questions No One Has Answered (Yet) ➝ Agent identity & consent ↳ Will users need AI shopping profiles? ↳ Google Pay already has your IDs & cards. ↳ That’s just the next step. ➝ Fraud & chargebacks ↳ What if the AI ships to the wrong person? ↳ Google sees across Gmail, Android, Pay - but laws may lag. ➝ Merchant economics ↳ Will Google charge a CPA or take a cut of GMV? ↳ “Enhanced Shopping Ads” likely mean a rev-share future. ➝ Regulatory scrutiny ↳ Does this count as self-preferencing under DMA? ↳ Click-outs + opt-ins may delay the hammer. This isn’t a feature drop. It’s a full-blown rewrite of the $5.5T e-commerce market. ▶ What happens to loyalty when AI shops for you? ▶ Do we trust the agent more than the seller? ▶ What if your product never gets “seen”? ▶ What role do brands even play now? ▶ Are you still in the game? // Repost this ⇄ // Source: Google I/O 2025, Gemini 2.5 announcement, inspired by Marc Baumann // Follow me for daily posts on emerging tech and growth: https://lnkd.in/gqzS_9Tf //

Because every payment tells a story If you know how to read it Here’s how Stripe just changed the game And why this might be the blueprint for AI’s next big leap 1/ ➠ Why Stripe Ditched Traditional ML ➝ Legacy ML used static, handcrafted signals ↳ BINs ↳ ZIPs ↳ Emails ➝ Each use case needed its own model ↳ Patchwork systems ↳ No shared brain ➝ Stripe outgrew this ↳ Too slow ↳ Too rigid 2/ ➠ So They Built a Payment-Native Transformer ➝ Not trained on words ↳ Trained on swipes ↳ Trained on behavior ➝ Each transaction becomes a fingerprint ↳ Time ↳ Location ↳ Method ➝ Similar patterns cluster naturally ↳ Behavior reveals risk ↳ Risk becomes visible ➝ Suspicious activity stands out ↳ No rules ↳ Just signal 3/ ➠ The Payoff? Insane Performance ➝ Stripe tested it on card testing attacks ↳ Hard to detect ↳ Looks legit ➝ Traditional ML: 59% detection ↳ High miss rate ↳ Not good ➝ Stripe's transformer: 97% ↳ In one night ↳ No new rules 4/ ➠ The Big Idea: Foundation Models for Everything ➝ It’s not just about fraud ↳ It’s about systems ↳ It’s about context ➝ Custom models will emerge ↳ Built for domains ↳ Built for structure ➝ We’re shifting from labeling to understanding ↳ From rules to reasoning ↳ From outputs to patterns Stripe didn’t just fight fraud They rewired how we think about intelligence in systems ▶ What systems could learn like this? ▶ What happens when supply chains get smart? ▶ What’s the spreadsheet version of this model? // Repost this ⇄ // Source: https://lnkd.in/drnURXmS // Follow me for daily posts on emerging tech and growth: https://lnkd.in/gqzS_9Tf //

Did FLORA just kill Photoshop? ⤵ A new tool didn't just challenge Photoshop - It changed the entire pace of creativity. FLORA isn't another design app. It's a new operating system for ideas. Let’s break it down: 1/ ➠ Photoshop Is a Toolbox. FLORA Is a Workspace. ➝ Adobe = Tools ➝ FLORA = Flow ➝ Layers vs Systems ↳ Guess which one scales? 2/ ➠ The Infinite Canvas Changes Everything. ➝ No more files ➝ Just blocks ➝ Move. Resize.

Gemini. ↳ Unified in one place 4/ ➠ Finally - AI That Creators Can Actually Use. ➝ Drag ➝ Drop ➝ Done ↳ Real-time collaboration, not chaos 5/ ➠ Control + Speed = Actual Power. ➝ No templates ➝ Nodes > menus ➝ Customize everything ↳ Create without waiting 6/ ➠ Photoshop Isn’t Dead - It’s Just Slow. ➝ Adobe = detail ➝ FLORA = delivery ➝ Deep vs fast ↳ Choose based on momentum What’s really dying?

You don’t need more experience... ...you need someone to tell you the truth. ⤵ Most professionals hit a wall. Not from lack of talent. But from lack of truth. You can be great... And still stop getting better. Let’s fix that. "Coaches are your external eyes and ears, providing a more accurate picture of your reality." - Atul Gawande 1/ ➠ You’re not as good as you think ➝ Experience isn’t improvement ➝ Repetition doesn’t build mastery ↳ Feedback is the key ➝ “Years in the game” means nothing ➝ Could be years of bad habits ↳ Stuck isn't success 2/ ➠ We know what works - we still fail ➝ Basics break without support ➝ Knowing isn't doing ↳ Execution fails in chaos ➝ Teams fall apart without alignment ➝ Checklists gather dust ↳ Awareness without action = 0 3/ ➠ The best have coaches - why don't you? ➝ Athletes knew this in 1875 ➝ Surgeons?

These 5 laws are always working. You’re either using them - or they’re using you. (Read this before life teaches you the hard way.) ⤵ Most people aren't lazy. They're just busy… Playing a game they don't understand. Master these 5 laws - or life keeps slapping you with them. Every. Single. Time. 1/ ➠ Murphy’s Law - What you fear, you invite. We don't fear the future. We create it with our fears. ➝ Fear fuels reality ↳ Dread it? It shows up. ↳ Think it? You summon it. ↳ Focus on failure? You build it. 2/ ➠ Kidlin’s Law - Define the problem, dissolve the chaos. People don’t have problem problems. They have clarity problems. ➝ Clarity cuts problems in half ↳ Name it? You tame it. ↳ Write it? You shrink it. ↳ Define it? You solve it. 3/ ➠ Gilbert’s Law - Your results are your responsibility. Responsibility is uncomfortable - But so is regret. ➝ Ownership beats excuses ↳ No one owes you success. ↳ Blame solves nothing. ↳ You = the process AND the result. 4/ ➠ Wilson’s Law - Smart minds build rich lives. Wealth isn’t luck. It’s a byproduct of how you think. ➝ Wisdom builds wealth ↳ Knowledge compounds. ↳ Smart choices = rich returns. ↳ Learn first. Earn next. 5/ ➠ Law of Attraction - What you focus on finds you. Desire without focus is just noise. And noise doesn’t manifest results. ➝ Desire directs destiny ↳ Focus feeds outcome. ↳ Intentions create momentum. ↳ What you want wants you. These laws don’t ask for permission. They run the game.

The $1B Solo Startup Isn’t Coming. It’s Already Here. ⤵ Turns out you don’t need 500 engineers, layers of management, or even an office to build a unicorn. What you do need? Relentless focus, a lean team, and AI as your cofounder. This isn't hype. It's already happening. 1/ ➠ The Age of the Atomic AI Team Look at the names topping the AI charts. They're not just building fast—they’re building tiny. ➝ Safe Superintelligence: $5B with 10 employees ↳ That’s half a billion per head ➝ AnySphere: $2.6B with 30 people ↳ That’s leaner than most indie dev teams ➝ Adept: $1B with just 25 folks ↳ And they’re building foundational tech 2/ ➠ AI Isn’t Replacing Jobs. It’s Redefining Teams The new model isn’t about headcount—it's about impact per person. And the metrics speak for themselves. ➝ Cursor: 20-person team, $100M ARR ↳ That’s $5M revenue per employee ➝ Aragon AI: $10M ARR, 9 employees ↳ No sales army, just sharp tech ➝ Lovable: $17M ARR, 15 people ↳ Try scaling that with meetings—good luck 3/ ➠ VCs Are Catching On — And Getting Out of the Way The funding scene’s shifting, and not just because of market cycles. Efficiency has become the main event. ➝ Y Combinator: Founders raising less ↳ That’s not frugality, that’s leverage ➝ Capital-efficient > capital-intensive ↳ Lean is the new loud ➝ AI-native teams don’t burn, they build ↳ Code > coordination 4/ ➠ The Blueprint Has Changed This isn’t a phase.

No. Operating model. ↳ Sam Altman called it. It’s here. 5/ ➠ The Hard Truth: Most Teams Are Too Big Most orgs aren’t built for speed. They’re built for control. And that’s a liability. ➝ Meetings kill momentum ↳ Alignment ≠ productivity ➝ More headcount, more drag ↳ Less room for actual builders ➝ Lean means speed ↳ Speed means survival The question isn’t “Can this work?” — it’s “How lean can you go?” ▶ Who’s building $1B with 1 person? ▶ What’s your ARR-per-head ratio? ▶ Is your team built for scale—or meetings? ▶ What if size is your biggest risk? // Repost this ⇄ // Source: Rule of Thumb / Palle Broe Kudos to Eduardo Ortiz de Lanzagorta González // Follow me for daily posts on emerging tech and growth: https://lnkd.in/gqzS_9Tf //

TRUMP. TECH. TRILLIONS. The $600B Power Play No One Saw Coming ⤵ If you think this is just another state visit - you're missing the point. This wasn’t about diplomacy. This was a boardroom negotiation... in a royal palace. Trump brought the elite Tech Titans to meet Saudi Royalty. Not for deals or networking. Let’s unpack what really went down: 1/ ➠ The New Oil? Influence ➝ Trump signed off on $600B in Saudi-U.S. investments ➝ $142B of that goes to arms - the biggest military deal ever ➝ $80B+ flows into AI, cloud, and immersive tech ↳ This is capital chasing control, not just returns Saudi isn’t just buying tech They’re embedding into the infrastructure They don’t want shelves - they want pipelines 2/ ➠ Why the Tech Titans Flew In ➝ Sam Altman, Elon Musk, Jensen Huang, Larry Fink - all in the room ➝ No press, no panels - just strategy inside the royal court ➝ The room where oil was once king - now mapping tech supremacy ↳ They didn’t come to observe - they came to orchestrate This wasn’t networking It was power mapping at the highest level Saudi Arabia wants front-row seats to the AI revolution 3/ ➠ Trump’s Pitch Was Pure Business ➝ “Give us $1T - we’ll give you chips, defense, nuclear access” ➝ It’s a tech-for-security swap, with military muscle baked in ➝ Civil nuclear support changes regional game theory ↳ Skip the red tape - bring billionaires and close This is diplomacy, Trump-style Deals first - flags later Everyone leaves richer... for now 4/ ➠ What’s in it for America? ➝ Domestic factories and AI data centers ➝ EV production, chip plants, green energy ➝ Rebuilding America’s industrial base - with Saudi capital ↳ “America First” might be Saudi-funded Still American growth But with global money behind it And if it works?

Your title means nothing if your team feels invisible. ⤵ Titles are handed out. Respect is earned. Real leadership is not about control. It is about care. This is not soft. It is smart. ⸻ 1/ ➠ Appreciation Isn’t Optional ➝ Gratitude is not extra. It is expected. ➝ Thanks are free. Use them often. ➝ Recognition fuels retention. Start here. Without appreciation, nothing else sticks. You lose your team emotionally before they ever resign. ⸻ 2/ ➠ Growth Is a Promise, Not a Perk ➝ Do not wait for someone to ask. Offer. ➝ Know what drives them. Ask. ➝ Stagnation sends talent packing. People join for the job. They stay for the future.

Saying “we appreciate you” while underpaying them? That is hypocrisy. Money matters. ⸻ 6/ ➠ Here’s What NOT to Do ➝ Do not assume loyalty is free. ➝ Do not hoard the spotlight. ➝ Do not bury stars under busywork. ➝ Do not trade well-being for wins. ➝ Do not expect 24/7 commitment. Avoiding these is not about being nice. It is about being competent. ⸻ Be the leader they remember. Not the one they survived. Now let’s get real: Leadership is rarely clean. It is complicated.

Humans stay safe. Robots take the risks. 5/ ➠ The new standard ➝ Waterproof, heatproof, replaceable batteries ➝ Trains with your team, too ➝ Tougher than tanks ↳ Fire drills now come with AI.

You Win. I Don’t Care. ⤵ Argue all you want. I’m not playing. I’ve learned the hard way: some people don’t want truth - they want a fight. So I stopped auditioning for their drama. Now? If you tell me the sky is green and 1 x 1 = 5… Congrats. You’re a genius. I’m out. How about you? 1/ ➠ Some Fights Just Aren’t Worth It ➝ Most debates drain energy, not grow insight ➝ Winning an argument doesn’t mean you’ve won anything ➝ If someone thinks 1 + 1 = 5... ↳ Let them be brilliant in their own delusion We’ve all been there - tempted to correct nonsense.
