Lex Sisney November 16, 2025

Summary Insight: The first AI-driven cyberattack just proved the point: the threat isn’t rogue models—it’s weak structure. If your AI can act without deterministic boundaries, you’ve already lost control. Key Takeaways: AI speed without governance creates systemic risk. A sound governance model can be built on five primitives: Records, Actions, Recordsets, Action Types, Roles. Deterministic structure—not more prompts—is the real

Every few years, a new personality style model bursts onto the scene, promising to crack the code on what motivates people. The cycle is familiar: “The old tools like Myers-Briggs, DiSC, StrengthsFinder, or Culture Index are outdated. They don’t capture the modern worker’s needs. But this new model… this is the one.” Cue the book launch, the TED talks, and

Lex Sisney October 1, 2025

  If you’re leading a growing company, you’ve felt it: execution slows down, misalignment creeps in, and stress builds. It’s not because your people aren’t smart or dedicated.

When it comes to AI transformation, Airtable is half right

Lex Sisney September 21, 2025

Summary Insight: Airtable’s AI shift proves the point: tools don’t transform companies—structure does. Get the rules right and AI fuels leverage; get them wrong and it multiplies chaos. Key Takeaways: Structure must match strategy—especially when AI changes the game. Effectiveness dies when buried under efficiency. Pilot AI at the edge, not under ops.
