  The SaaSpocalypse: Why Companies May Stop Buying Software | Episode 41

  Aug 10, 202627 min

  In this episode of The Insurgent Mindset, Matt and Rondo unpack whether the so-called “SaaSpocalypse” is really a temporary market correction or evidence of a much deeper structural shift. They explore why companies are beginning to replace SaaS tools with AI agents and custom-built systems, how the build-versus-buy equation is changing, and why general-purpose SaaS may face more pressure than specialised solutions. The conversation also examines what incumbent software companies must do to survive, why business models may need to shift from charging per seat toward outcomes, and how CEOs should think differently about software, strategic capabilities and competitive advantage. For leaders making technology and investment decisions today, the question is no longer simply what software to buy — but what capabilities should be built, owned and evolved. -- Hosted by seasoned strategy consultants Matt Tice and Rondo Moses, with a combined 50 years of experience, this podcast will challenge you to transcend the status quo and reshape how you think about and approach competing in the business marketplace.

  Jul 27, 202650 min

  In this episode of The Insurgent Mindset, Matt and Rondo sit down with Hitesh Vachharajani, a life sciences executive and founder with almost three decades of experience across pharmaceuticals, medtech and diagnostics. Together they explore why many organisations are applying AI to outdated business models, why efficiency isn't the same as transformation, and why the companies that rethink their operating model, not just automate it, will shape the future. From precision medicine and early disease detection to digital healthcare, clinical trials, patient engagement and the changing economics of healthcare, this conversation explores where the industry is heading and what leaders across every sector can learn from one of the world's most highly regulated industries. Above all, it challenges executives to think like insurgents before they think about technology.

  The Companies That Don't Rebuild Their Workforce Will Disappear | Episode 38 with Lisa Christy

  Jul 11, 202651 min

  In this episode of The Insurgent Mindset , Lisa Christy joins Matt Tice and Rondo Moses to explore why HR can no longer remain a transactional support function. As AI accelerates the pace of business, organisations must rethink capability, workforce planning, leadership and culture together. The discussion explores why adaptability is becoming more valuable than experience, why CEOs must personally lead AI transformation, and why businesses that fail to build AI capability risk losing both talent and customers. Whether you're a CEO, executive, HR leader or business owner, this conversation challenges long-held assumptions about leadership and offers practical insights into preparing organisations (and people) for an AI-driven future. -- Hosted by seasoned strategy consultants Matt Tice and Rondo Moses, with a combined 50 years of experience, this podcast will challenge you to transcend the status quo and reshape how you think about and approach competing in the business marketplace.

  The Tokenomics Problem Every CEO Will Soon Face | Episode 37

  Jun 15, 202649 min

  In this episode of The Insurgent Mindset , Matt and Rondo unpack one of the biggest paradoxes shaping business today: why cheaper AI is leading to larger AI bills. They explore token economics, the governance challenges facing boards and CFOs, the risks of uncontrolled AI adoption, and why many organizations are focusing on efficiency while missing the much larger opportunity of value creation. We go beyond cost management to examine a provocative future where AI tokens could become a new asset class, AI-native companies challenge traditional software models, and organizations rethink how value is created. If you're a CEO, executive, board member, or innovation leader trying to understand the economics of AI, this episode offers a framework for thinking beyond automation and toward competitive advantage. -- Hosted by seasoned strategy consultants Matt Tice and Rondo Moses, with a combined 50 years of experience, this podcast will challenge you to transcend the status quo and reshape how you think about and approach competing in the business marketplace.
