I captured some of my thoughts on the evolution of technology and our use of it, and how it doesn't always go as we would expect.

A framework for capturing and clarifying often muddled terms in business and in life
At the start of a year, there is a model I keep coming back to - both personally and professionally. It's a framework that helps clarify a bunch of concepts and words that are often used interchangeably. Words like "vision", "strategy", "mission" and "goal". It's called the BMM, and I wrote about it on Substack.
Looking at the role of leadership in managing and, in some cases, removing one of the hallmarks of modern business
I finally wrote down some of my thoughts on ambiguity in the working world, and the need to distinguish between the authentic and the artificial.
Thinking about the relationship between humankind and our super-powered tools
In this post, I try to take a step back and take a different look at artificial intelligence and its potential for positive (even superhuman) impact in enhancing our ability to do good.
Looking at your strengths, your work and your development in the context of your life
Ikigai is one of my favourite frameworks, so I thought I'd share some thoughts on finding purpose in your work as the year wraps up.

Small Biz Matters: People, Policy, Purpose ~ Episode #212 Broadcast date: 7th November 2023 Host: Alexi Boyd, Small Business Advocate &
A few months ago, on the very busy Xerocon Sydney exhibition hall floor, I was interviewed by Alexi Boyd on the Small Biz Matters podcast. We had a great chat about emerging tech (including #ai, of course) and the episode has now gone live.
A lightweight framework for encouraging a more structured approach to experimentation with emerging technology in a business context.
After some questions I received on a recent conference panel, I thought I should capture some of my thoughts on experimentation with technology in business.
Capturing my thoughts on what this means, and why write about it, and why now.
On some prompting from a good colleague of mine, I have opened a Substack and will try to write a few things there on my learnings over my career (and life) so far.
Right now, everybodyās talking about AI. The conversation ranges from the global challenges over regulation, right through to how businesses
I really enjoyed talking with Jennifer Duke on theĀ Fear & GreedĀ podcast. We spoke about some of the findings from the recent research conducted byĀ XeroĀ where we surveyed small businesses to find out their thoughts (and concerns) relating toĀ #AI.
Xero research shows 80% of small businesses globally are concerned about AI development and adoption outpacing regulation.
The hype around artificial intelligence (AI) is making small businesses feel that its development and adoption is moving at lightning speed. In fact, the research we did at Xero shows that 80% of small business owners globally are concerned that the fast pace and nature of AI is leaving regulation in the dust. They told us they want governments to do more, given the potential big impact to industries and the workforce. I write more about it in this post.

Thereās many things for small and medium businesses to consider in 2023, but moving their business into the metaverse might not be one of th
With all the buzz flying around Apple's Vision Pro announcements, people are starting to talk about theĀ #metaverseĀ again...after all the talk this year being mostly about the explosion of generative AI tools that we have seen.
So does this mean that small businesses need to rush off and hire a Chief Metaverse Officer? Probably not just yet. š
As I wrote inĀ Kochie's Business Builders, the deeply immersive and technological version of the metaverse that has been promised is still somewhere on the horizon. But itās important to know what the metaverse is, what it isnāt and what it could be.
Joined by Gateway.fm, SafePal, Xero, New York University and Hadean, here we explore how web3 is generating a new wave of fintech innovation.
I spoke with @thefintechtimes on what web3 tech could mean for innovation, and how small businesses can explore its transformative potential - especially by gathering rich and reliable information on financial health and cashflow.
In this video in the #XeroFutureFocus series, I tackled 5 of the questions we have received relating to cryptocurrencies, NFTs and other related tech.
This is the second video in our #XeroFutureFocus series. Ā In this one, I take a look at smart contracts and how the global supply chain can benefit from innovation in this area.
Well, summer wasnāt super in Auckland. So, hereās hoping for a more awesome autumn. š
