A comprehensive, actionable workbook with frameworks, assessments, practical exercises, and templates for mastering the Three Pillars of AI-era success
This is a solid reminder that upskilling isn’t about chasing every new tool, but building systems for continuous learning. Loved the step-by-step framing—especially how you connect AI skills with long-term career resilience, not just short-term hype.
The awareness that you need to be systematically developing the three pillars...technical, human-centric, and strategic...is the defining differentiator for the next decade of career success.
Thank you my friend! So glad this one resonated with you.
The development needs to take place across multiple capacities and locations for all of us. What I am inspired and encouraged by is the diversity of opportunity.
Really appreciate how clearly this playbook lays out a practical, research-backed path for building AI-era skills. It makes the journey feel achievable!
Wow, this is really insightful John and I appreciate the deeper dive on what we can do. Many feel victim to AI, but the reality is we must be prepared to adjust and realign. Agility keeps us fresh.
yes, John! This is excellent, and crazy generous of you as well. The outline for this course is waaaaay better than many I see on Coursera or other MOOC platforms. I also love the tracker you have developed as a way for learners to meaningfully benchmark against their own development rather than some cookie cutter assessment. 🙏
we really appreciate the human centered approach to using the tech for business, it's not often you see all three of these points together these days, human, business, and technology.
It’s basically being cooked in to everything. We have some great tools but the internal push from leadership is impressive. We’ve had some projects that would have taken 14 months be done in 2.
Hi John - thanks for publishing this! I found this a while ago and haven't had time to dive in until now, and I'm so glad I did. I appreciated how clear your writing was, and how you provided ways to conceptualize what the score practically means. I'm excited for the rest of the weeks!

I love a workbook! I've written 2. Stoked about this John. Thanks for sharing it. On my reading list 🌟
Really like the phrasing here John. I love how actionable the workbook makes the development journey. Thanks for putting this together!
Sure thing, Chintan! So glad this resonated with you.
It made me think of watching someone learn to ride a bike on a gentle slope.
Once they feel the forward pull, confidence replaces hesitation, and the whole journey opens up.
In my coaching world, especially through the 5 Voices, people grow best when they understand how they naturally learn.
Nurturers learn through relationships and purpose.
Guardians learn through steady repetition.
Creatives learn through curiosity and space.
Connectors learn through conversation and story.
Pioneers learn through challenges that stretch them.
When a team understands this mix, upskilling becomes far smoother and far more enjoyable.
This is so exciting John!! Congratulations! I am thrilled that this is human centered!
Thanks, Nazanin! Hope to see you along our journey.

Wow! This is such a massive resource to create real change in our new Ai world.
It's crazy, although not really shocking, that only 13% of the leaders are actually taking action and embracing the transformation.
Looking forward to this little 6 week journey.
You said this so well, Dennis real change starts with steady action.
we really appreciate the human centered approach to using the tech for business, it's not often you see all three of these points together these days, human, business, and technology.
The public build should be fascinating.
You captured it clearly, Passport these three pieces belong together.
“AI deployment achieve profitability gains exceeding 40% while freeing up over 50% of labor capacity for higher-value work.”
The definition of transformation and distribution. Great read thanks.
Appreciate this, ToxSec what impact are you seeing in your work?
