What happens to leadership when your org chart includes both people and AI agents? In this episode of the Beyond Technology podcast, Brent, co-founder of BigGeo ("the spatial cloud"), explains how his team turned deep tech from the University of Calgary into a platform that delivers any slice of the world's spatial data in seconds. Brent talks about using AI marketing systems to reach industries from healthcare to mining. He shares why he sees today's workforce as humans and agents working together, with people moving into governance roles. He also explains why technology is making leadership harder, not easier. He covers flattening org structures so team members own whole domains, the LinkedIn-fuelled FOMO behind "why aren't we doing that?", and why he still brings a pen and notebook to every in-person meeting.
