Artificial intelligence is changing the workplace faster than most organisations can adapt. Every week brings new tools, more capable AI agents, and sensational predictions about which jobs will disappear and which will emerge. Yet behind the headlines lies a more important question: what happens to the people expected to work alongside these systems?

In this edition of Real Talk, William Delaney sits down with Tony Moroney, Principal at The Digital Explorer and one of Europe's leading voices on AI strategy and digital transformation. Having advised executive teams across financial services, technology, and consulting for more than 17 years, Tony has helped organisations separate meaningful change from passing trends and understand where AI is creating real value.

Together, they'll explore the questions many leaders are only beginning to confront. As AI becomes more capable, what skills will become indispensable? How should organisations prepare the next generation of professionals when technology can increasingly perform knowledge work? And what role should leadership play in ensuring AI augments people rather than replacing their ability to think, learn, and grow?

Hosted by William Delaney, communications professional and interviewer focused on AI, operations, and organisational transformation.

If you're trying to understand what AI means beyond productivity gains and automation, this conversation will challenge how you think about the future of work.
