  Meet the Leader: Why AI 'workslop' is a leadership problem

  Aug 20, 202623 minS1

  Workslop – low-quality work produced through poor human-AI collaboration – is wasting time, slowing teams down and limiting the productivity gains leaders expect from AI. But the problem isn't always the technology – it's often a signal to leaders that teams need more support. Alexi Robichaux, CEO of digital learning platform BetterUp, says AI can amplify both good and bad leadership standards and leaders need to define what excellent work looks like before AI is deployed. This episode was first published on Radio Davos's sister podcast Meet the Leader.

  From 'polycrisis' to 'polytunity' - the future of geopolitics with Prof Yuen Yuen Ang

  Jul 29, 202633 minS1

  "Polycrisis" was a term coined to describe the convergence of multiple global challenges: political polarisation, conflicts, and the breakdown of post-World War Two norms on issues such as trade and security. Yuen Yuen Ang, a political science professor at Johns Hopkins University, says polycrisis was a useful way of framing the problem, but to find solutions we should consider the global "polytunity". This episode of Radio Davos was produced jointly with CNA Correspondent from Singapore-based Channel News Asia, and is co-hosted with CNA journalist Olivia Siong. https://www.channelnewsasia.com/listen/cna-correspondent This was recorded at the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting of the New Champions 2026.

  "Not just small men" - how healthcare is failing women, and what can be done

  Jul 23, 202630 minS1

  Women spend 25% more of their lives in poor health than men and are 50% more likely to die of a heart attack than a male patient. The statistics are staggering - but there are some relatively simple and cost-effective ways healthcare systems can improve the situation. Lucy Perez of the McKinsey Health Institute sets out the challenges and talks us through these potential solutions.
