In today\\u2019s episode, I chat with Steve Prentice - speaker, published author, writer, and university lecturer. Steve\\u2019s main areas of focus include: cyber-security, the future of work, technology and people - fertile ground for a rich discussion.

We started, as is custom on this podcast, with Steve\\u2019s story. One made all the more interesting by his years as a digital nomad & traveling musician. Though the discussion quickly pivoted to Steve\\u2019s fourth book, entitled: The Future of Workplace Fear \\u2013 How Human Reflex Stands in the Way of Digital Transformation.

We dug deeper into that topic, discussing how the demands and expectations of modern employees have changed in the past 5 years, and ultimately what it means for each of us.\\xa0

We discussed how best to address and manage fear of change individually and how managers can prepare themselves for the new normal.\\xa0

And we chatted at length about the intersection of human behavior and technology, a topic that\\u2019s particularly close to my heart. And I really wanted to hear Steve\\u2019s perspective as a professional who not only talks the talk, but walks the walk.\\xa0

It was such a pleasure connecting with Steve. And I hope you enjoy it.
