AI productivity gains may be creating a hidden talent crisis. As senior employees use AI to take on work once assigned to junior staff, organizations risk “experience starvation,” weakening the pathways that build judgment, discernment, and future leaders. Explore how shrinking entry-level opportunities, skills atrophy, and disrupted talent pipelines could create long-term capability gaps, and why leaders need to design developmental friction into AI transformation. Learn how organizations can capture AI’s speed and efficiency without sacrificing the hands-on experience people need to grow into tomorrow’s experts.
Hybrid meetings don't fail because of technology—they fail because they're not designed for equal participation. Learn practical hybrid meeting facilitation techniques that keep remote and in-room participants equally engaged, from creating a shared digital workspace and assigning a dedicated remote-voice role to using structured turn-taking and AI meeting tools effectively. Discover why designing for the remote participant first leads to better collaboration, clearer decisions, stronger engagement, and more inclusive meetings, along with simple facilitation strategies your team can implement immediately without investing in expensive new technology.
In this episode of the Facilitation Lab podcast, host Douglas Ferguson interviews Joe McLean, Group Product Manager for the AI Stream at Miro, who led the overhaul of Miro's Sidekicks and Flows AI surfaces launched at Canvas 25. Joe traces how his hobbyist love of Eurorack modular synthesizers shaped Flows, arguing that visible, patchable connections reveal what a chat box hides, and that a good tool's structure can enable rather than constrain creativity. He and Douglas dig into what he calls the "visual trace" - treating an AI agent like a new hire who needs onboarding, check-ins, and a replayable record so a whole team, not just one operator, can trust and build on its work. The conversation covers how cheap execution is reshaping product development, from teams showing up to meetings with working prototypes instead of slide decks, to Miro's internal VibeLab tool solving the "Git problem" of AI-generated design branches, to the rise of throwaway personal software built for an audience of one. They close on a candid discussion of the switching costs of chat-interface lock-in and Joe's conviction that the healthiest relationship with AI comes from building things with it, not just asking it questions.
