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.

Career Transitions & Performance Measurements: Into The Workplace
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This episode series is the first of several year-end Bright & Wize weekly series. Here, Brize CEO & Bright & Wize host Leslie Ferry dives into performance measurement in the workplace. The reason she wanted to explore this topic is because once stated and understood, the performance measurement seems logical; some might even think, duh. But, the funny thing is they appear more subconscious and are not often explicitly stated in these ways, so she thought she’d explicitly say them.
This first episode looks at the transition from academia, where knowing the answer was the measure of good performance, into the workplace, where the measure of our performance differs.
