I feel it. You probably feel it too.
The pace of business and innovation this year has been intense.
AI this. AI that….
It’s hard to keep up with the latest and greatest in AI, right?
Well, this is another (biased) reason why I think it is a good idea to connect with other Chiefs of Staff in-person. You do so this Thursday’s A Chief of Staff Mixer in NYC.
It’s also why I want to share real-time insights and updates for you all on the A Chief of Staff Podcast.
Speaking of which…
On Friday August 14th, literally four days ago, I heard something that I thought more people could benefit from hearing soon!
Grant Rivas, the Head of Operations at Antimetal, told me about how he moved from using Claude to ChatGPT just in the past few weeks.
You can listen to the clip about this transition here:
You all are moving fast and I want to try to do the same for you too!
Enjoy this A Chief of Staff Podcast episode with Grant!
