The Career Edge - by Brize
Welcome to The Career Edge — the podcast for professionals who are ready to cultivate the human skills that define a career. In a world where technology is a given, how we think, decide, and connect is what sets us apart.
Hosted by Leslie Ferry, founder of Brize and the architect behind Zandra, this show pulls back the curtain on the unspoken shifts that truly impact your trajectory. We move beyond generic advice to empower you with the insights required to navigate the modern workplace with agency and influence.
You’ll discover the "hidden gems" of how work actually works — the unspoken operating motions that others often miss. From there, we explore the uniquely human elements that allow you to capitalize on those insights, turning self-awareness and strategic reasoning into a more empowered and fulfilling career.
Each episode is designed to help you sharpen the skills AI cannot replace:
- Self-Awareness & Others-Awareness
- Strategic Reasoning
- Clear Communication & Trust
- Collaboration & Connection
If you are ready to start taking intentional ownership of your growth, you’ve found your edge.

The Formula to Providing Value at Work
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If you want to Get A Head at Work you need to provide value to your organization. Individuals who do so are seen as essential or indispensable. But to be seen as valuable does not mean:
- Doing our Job Description Responsibilities
- Reacting to Requests
- Being Busy, Doing Stuff
- Attending Meetings
At least not in the way we typically think of these actions.
The formula for providing value is:
Knowledge + How We Work + How We Relate
Pamela Coleman-Davis joins Leslie again to explain what this all means and how we can measure ourselves throughout 3-episodes. In this episode, Leslie outlines the formula components and skills contributing to each.
