Drawing on history, academic research, and real examples from his work in executive search, Jason explains how AI and automation are quietly unbundling roles from the inside out — and why your calendar tells more truth than your job description. He introduces a practical three-column exercise to help leaders map what's coming, and challenges every professional to ask not just \"is this the right role?\" but \"is this role becoming what I want?\"\nKey Takeaways:The real AI risk for most leaders isn't replacement — it's being left with the parts of your job you don't enjoyJob titles stay fixed while the substance of work underneath them changes dramaticallyThe Luddites weren't anti-technology — they were reacting to the loss of craft, dignity, and meaning in their workAI doesn't just automate tasks; it codifies tacit knowledge from your best people and distributes it to everyoneThe most valuable future leaders will be defined by discernment — knowing when something is wrong, naive, or just buzzwordsCareers drift out of fit gradually and then suddenly, much like Hemingway's description of bankruptcyBoards and hiring teams often define the next leader by the last job — a costly misread of what the role is becomingGeneric competency models (\"strategic, collaborative, transformational\") fail because they don't tell you what a leader will actually be doingMcKinsey research confirms this wave of AI disruption hits knowledge work — not just factories and call centersThe three-column exercise: map what gets automated, what becomes more valuable, and what's left over — then ask if you want that jobConnect with Jason: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jasonbaumgarten/ \nEmail the show here: fithappens.fm\n00:00 Introduction & the AI fear no one talks...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/nfrwsHIoMq0qJsuJW-EcxTodUSD43yD_feja2FF86KI/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9mZWE0/YjE4NzE2ZTNiZGQz/NDQ4MWNhYzdjNzA0/ZTE1OC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
