What if a leader's growth doesn't require more capability? On last week's episode of Leadership: Re-imagined, Talogy's Munir Burhan spoke with Dr Terry Galvin, Chartered Occupational Psychologist, about his work on Leadership Growth Constraints. In this clip, Terry shares how one leader continued to grow without improving his performance or building new skills. Instead, he reflected on how he showed up and made his existing capability more visible. The opportunity isn't always to develop more. Sometimes it's to let what's already there be fully expressed.

💡🔗How do we keep future leadership pipelines healthy when AI is reshaping early career development? AI is changing what people do at work, but what will actually help people continue to grow, progress, and lead as work evolves? Across our latest research into early-career development, leadership effectiveness, and high-potential talent, a consistent set of human capabilities emerged. R – Responsiveness I – Insight S – Sustainability E – Effectiveness These capabilities provide a foundation for working effectively alongside AI, continuing to develop as work changes, and ultimately succeeding as a leader. This week, we're taking a closer look at each part of RISE, and why these human capabilities matter for building healthy, sustainable leadership pipelines in an AI-enabled world.

Many capable leaders continue to deliver strong results and remain highly valued, even as their growth begins to stall. What if the real barrier isn't capability at all? In this episode of Leadership: Re-imagined, Talogy’s Munir Burhan is joined by Dr Terry Galvin, Chartered Occupational Psychologist and Executive Coach, to discuss why capable leaders can encounter constraints on their continued growth despite sustained strong performance. Together, they’ll explore six Leadership Constraints that emerged from recurring themes observed in Terry's work, bringing them to life through real-world examples. Join us for a practical and thought-provoking conversation about what can constrain leadership growth, and what it takes to move beyond it. 🎙️ Register below to join the conversation:

AI use in hiring is increasing and so are the questions around where to draw the line. A recent Forbes article explores the rise of AI-assisted cheating in recruitment, referencing an analysis of 19,368 AI-powered interviews conducted between July 2025 and January 2026, where 38.5% of candidates were flagged for AI-cheating behavior. It’s a challenge without one simple solution. But as Nataliya Baytalskaya, Ph.D. explains, there are steps organizations can take: “While it is undeniable that AI use has increased in recent years, several strategies could be impactful, as described in the article. However, organizations often overlook the simple step of setting clear expectations for AI use during the hiring process. Our research found that an honesty agreement explaining that AI use is strictly prohibited and asking candidates to commit to completing an assessment independently significantly reduced reported AI use. The initial findings are promising, and future research should examine how well this approach generalizes to other hiring methods, including skills tests and interviews. While honesty agreements are not a panacea for candidate AI use in selection, they offer a low-cost, scalable, and evidence-based first line of defense in this new era of hiring, where a multi-pronged approach is necessary to maintain the integrity of the selection process.” Candidate Generative AI Use in Pre‐Hire Employment Assessments: Self‐Reported Incidence and the Impact of Warnings -(https://lnkd.in/enseDxWA) #TalentAssessment #Hiring #AI #FutureOfWork
