Thomas Neergaard Hansen — President of Amplitude and former Microsoft and Dropbox executive — proved to me that even the most hard-earned leadership skills aren’t always enough.

He’s led billion-dollar teams, navigated career reinventions, and even learned leadership lessons on a windsurfing board.

In this episode, he opens up about the next leadership superpower every leader needs to survive — and thrive — in today’s AI-driven world.

You'll discover:

-Why the “career ladder” is gone for good

-The daily habit he uses to stay ahead with his own team

-How AI is shifting what makes a great leader

-Why the best CEOs embrace what they don’t know

-What windsurfing taught him about business risk and resilience

This isn’t theory — it’s real, hard-won insight from the front lines of leadership.

Only the leaders who adapt will last...
