What I learned from going to prison
Hi, my friend- I've been to prison. Last year, I underwent a transformative journey during a visit to an Arizona correctional facility with Televerde. Televerde actively involves incarcerated women in the workforce, emphasizing skill development in technology and marketing, focusing on empowerment and fostering positive change. I witnessed firsthand how emerging technology could facilitate human connections. This answered an ongoing question I’ve grappled with since I introduced H2H™ (Human-to-Human) in 2014 – How can technology help deepen human relationships? It's a brilliant example of how technology (AI) and humans work together for the greater good. What truly resonated with me is Televerde's socially responsible business model. These incarcerated women are offered valuable opportunities for personal growth and reintegration into society, leading to extraordinary business outcomes. As I talked with this group of intelligent and passionate women, it was evident that they were dedicated to serving Televerde’s clients, from what I observed because of the sense of purpose, pride, dignity, and new skillset it gave them. This sense of a shared mission has generated over $12 billion in revenue since 1994, showcasing the effectiveness of a mutually beneficial business model. Join me with Televerde in discussing how AI and humans can work together for the greater good on March 6th. Why is this a meaningful conversation now more than ever? Let’s consider the remarkable pace of adoption of emerging technologies throughout history: Electricity required 37 years to achieve mass adoption, followed by the Internet in 17 years and the smartphone in 21 years. However, in fascinating contrast, ChatGPT achieved mass critical adoption in a mere ten months, marking a seismic shift in human attitudes toward technological integration and human-machine interaction.

In our upcoming webinar, we will talk about and answer these questions:
I am thrilled to be answering all these questions and more in an intimate interview with Televerde and myself on Wednesday, March 6, 2024. Join me and Managing Director Chris Mercer as we explore the powerful combination of AI and H2H in relationship-driven growth. Register here for the live event (replay available) In gratitude- |

Hi! I'm a Bryan.
Hi, my friend- Last night, I hired someone to help me put a bed together that would have taken me hours but took him half the time. When I paid him, he left with a smile and a handshake. Two minutes later he showed back up and said I had overpaid him, handed me back the extra money and smiled saying it was too much. What a wonderful human moment on so many levels. As a fellow human, I'm always looking for ways to be more efficient, productive, and successful. AI might be the answer. However,...
Hi, my friend- How do you grow as a business leader? Where do you generate your insight – have you plucked ideas from the sky or listened to colleagues sitting around a meeting table? Yes, these ideas can be valid, but are they intuitions truly coming from a customer-centric perspective? In short – are you listening to what your customers are telling you? A shift from brand-centric to customer-centric innovation can help you provide products and services that create value for your customers...
Hi, my friend- In the grand carnival of life, we often find ourselves entangled in the chaotic allure of Whack-a-Mole. The relentless emergence of challenges mimics the familiar bobbing heads of moles, each demanding attention and swift action. Fear not, fellow adventurer; a profound lesson exists in the whimsical game Whack-a-Mole. Picture this: a lone warrior armed with a foam mallet, standing defiantly against the constant tide of mole-like obstacles. The familiar rhythm of rising...
