Right?

Hard to trust their work again even if they made many apologies. Also shows how quick we all are to defer to AI over our own work.

If I’m paying $1mm a year for consulting, I might ask myself why if there’s no premium for doing that any more. Sign up for Claude instead.

How #AI Could Get You Fired:

Recent investigations show that two top-tier consulting firms, Deloitte and EY gave clients research reports (for which they pay millions) that contained entirely fabricated citations and quotes generated by AI.

If you put your name on work that leverages help from AI, it's wise to verify the work or else lose client's #trust -- and #business.

@JasonPynn @shawnachor Thank you Jason!!

@ShawnAchor’s work has influenced how leaders think about performance, stress, and #WellBeing at scale.

His TED Talk, The Happy Secret to Better Work, became one of the most widely viewed talks in the world, and his book The Happiness Advantage helped reshape how organizations understand the relationship between happiness and success.

Shawn joins me on my #podcast to explore his new book, The Power of Belief, which examines how deeply held beliefs function as invisible drivers of behavior, decision-making, and human potential.

Fight the urge to order your Starbucks drink via an app, or read your phone during an UBER ride.

Micro-connections with a barista, ride-share driver, dry cleaner and grocer give you a little dose of #wellbeing every time.

Remember this the next time a tech company announces massive #layoffs:

Apollo Global Management's chief economist, Torsten Sløk wrote last week that there is "zero evidence of job losses because of AI"

Maybe so, but CEOs are blaming #AI as the reason for firing 150,000 tech workers in the past couple of years.

Much Ado About Nothing?

Or just a delayed return on investment?

A new survey by Bain & Co. finds most ($100mm+ in revenue) companies are falling short of anticipated cost savings from #AI.

40% show reductions of just 10% or less.

Just 4% globally reached savings greater than 30%.

No bueno if you're a #CEO or #CFO.

We might blame ourselves for this; it's up to all of us to enforce expectations:

Gallup finds only 12% of Americans rate the state of moral #values in the US as “excellent.”

My New Podcast!

Shawn Achor is one of the most influential voices in positive psychology and human performance. His TED Talk, The Happy Secret to Better #Work, has been viewed 25mm times because it challenged a deeply held belief that stress and pressure are required for high performance.

Author of the international bestseller,The #Happiness Advantage, Achor joins me to discuss his new book, The Power of Belief, and why our internal beliefs may quietly determine what we attempt, what we avoid, and what we ultimately become capable of.

In 2026’s #AI race, top companies are going double down on caring for their people.

Glassdoor’s Best Places to Work 2026 proves this approach to #Leadership is the #1 factor: it includes vulnerable leaders, open transparency, real career growth, and using AI to strengthen human #connection -- not terrorize people about losing their jobs.

When people feel safe and valued, they fully commit. This is why I wrote The Power of Employee #WellBeing: how your people feel drives performance and success. Well-being is your strongest advantage.

Shawn Achor is my new #LeadFromTheHeart podcast guest -- we discuss his new book, The Power of Belief, extending a body of work that has already influenced millions.
From his bestselling book The #Happiness Advantage to his TED Talk The Happy Secret to Better #Work, viewed tens of millions of times, his central message has consistently challenged traditional thinking about performance: that #WellBeing and mindset are not secondary—they are foundational.

This new conversation goes deeper, into how beliefs quietly structure behavior, shape resilience, and define the limits of human potential.

Shawn Achor is best known for The #Happiness Advantage, which introduced a counterintuitive but evidence-backed idea: happiness is not a reward for #success, but a precursor to it.

His TED Talk The Happy Secret to Better Work brought that message to 25mm people worldwide and helped shift how leaders think about performance.

On my new #LeadFromTheHeart podcast, we explore his new book The Power of Belief, which focuses on how beliefs shape perception, behavior, and ultimately the boundaries of human potential.

Amazing!

I have a sense that having fewer social (in person) interactions with other people may be contributing to this.

Per Gallup, an all-time high 56% of Americans rate the overall state of moral #values as poor.

80% believes it's going to get even worse.

Chine Has A #Heart -- Or At Least Has An Enlightened View

After being presented with the possibility that #AI could wipe out 30% of the country's jobs, Chinese Vice Premier, He Lifeng, warned companies -- tech especially -- NOT to cut jobs as they embrace #AI.
