    Coaching is an indispensible part of the engineering leader's work. Knowing how to lift people with respect to both deep technical concerns and difficult people concerns can seem daunting. Though it really boils down to simply being interested in people - and in seeing them meet their potential.

    Join us as we discuss this important topic with Danny Kirchmeier on this month's edition of The Kyle Rowland Podcast.

  • Is AI coming for my job?

    Is AI coming for my job?
    Dec 23 2025

    Join in as we discuss with Molly Jaggers the implications we face as we adopt cutting edge AI technology.

    A key takeaway from this episode is what the adoption implies about the most constructive behavior for members of the workforce in these turbulent days.

    Ultimately, it's a time of great opportunity and hope - though as in any epoch - those that are lazy or slow to change will quickly be left behind.

    The biggest difference now is found in the definition of "quickly" - which will be much more severe than in prior days.
