Growth Hacking Culture starts from the opposite premise: if your best people are disengaged, burned out, or leaving, the system is broken, not them. Hosted by Ivan Palomino, this top 5% global podcast brings you unfiltered conversations with the people rewriting the rules of work: executives from Apple, Goldman Sachs, and Zappos, organizational psychologists, neuroscientists, and founders who’ve built cultures that perform without burning people down. No corporate wellness fluff. No recycled leadership clichés. Just the behavioral science, psychology, and uncomfortable truths behind workplace culture, employee engagement, and leadership that actually works. For HR leaders, CHROs, founders, and executives who suspect the standard playbook is the problem.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-21T20:20:00.709377+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/growth-hacking-culture-7025931"},"episode":{"title":"Consciousness Over IQ: What Actually Wins in an AI Workplace with Bruce D.

They planned for entry-level jobs disappearing. But when a two-day AI output matches what your best analyst produces in four weeks, and nobody in the room can tell the difference, the people most exposed are the ones who never had to build resilience, because raw intelligence was always enough. That's the argument Bruce D. Randall makes in his book The End of Smart. Bruce is an author and technology thought leader working at the intersection of AI, quantum computing, and human potential. He has built functional AI apps with zero coding background, written white papers breaking down quantum computing for non-technical audiences, and spent twenty years developing a meditation practice that shapes his view on consciousness as a workplace skill. In this conversation, Ivan and Bruce explore why corporate hierarchies built on \"hire smart, reward smart, promote smart\" are breaking, and what replaces intelligence as the thing organizations should actually be developing in their people. In this episode: Why AI replaces high performers before it replaces underperformers, and what makes top talent so exposed The real story of an analyst report recreated by AI in two days that nobody could distinguish from the original How middle management is being hollowed out as AI automates reporting, compliance, and data aggregation What consciousness over intelligence means in practice, and how intuition becomes a learnable competitive skill Why the bottom rung of the corporate ladder is disappearing and what that means for new graduates How quantum computing and AI combine into hybrid systems, and why leaders need a basic grasp of both The critical thinking gap: why universities still produce knowledge storage and…","meta_description":"AI replacing high performers is not the scenario most companies prepared for.
