AI, Leadership, and Building a Career That Evolves with Intention; Episode 160: Leigh Felton

AI is already shaping who gets noticed, who gets hired, and who gets promoted. The question is: are you ready for what's next?
In Episode 160 of the 2B Bolder Podcast, I sit down with Leigh Felton, President and Chair of the AI for Job Security Foundation and former leader of Responsible AI Enablement at Microsoft, for a conversation that goes far beyond artificial intelligence. We explore how to build a career with intention while the rules of work continue to evolve.
Leigh shares her non-linear career journey and the turning points that came from staying open to unexpected opportunities. We also get practical with a 30-60-90 day approach that starts with listening, moves into pattern recognition, and ends with testing meaningful improvements. Whether you're starting a new role, stepping into leadership, or making a career pivot, this framework can help you build confidence without feeling like you need to have all the answers on day one.
We also pull back the curtain on what an executive Chief of Staff really does, how influence is built behind the scenes, and why authentic leadership is far more powerful than trying to fit a leadership mold.
Then we dive into one of the most important conversations facing professionals today: responsible AI, AI literacy, and AI bias. Leigh explains why no AI system is completely unbiased, why it's critical to question AI-generated outputs rather than blindly accept them, and what every professional can do to become a more informed and responsible user of AI.
If you're wondering how AI will impact your career, how to stay relevant as technology reshapes the workplace, or how to lead with confidence through change, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
