So what separates leaders who keep up from those who fall behind? In this episode, Scott Luton sits down with Mike Griswold , Vice President Analyst at Gartner , to break down what it takes to lead in 2026. Mike revisits key lessons from the pandemic, including why top organizations “handle hard better,” and explains why “winning in the turns” still applies in today’s environment of constant disruption. They also unpack where many leaders are misreading AI, especially as supply chain and IT continue to converge, and what that means for CSCOs.
