The Long Game: Bob Safian on great leadership in the AI revolution
About this episode
Rapid Response host Bob Safian recently sat down with Eric Becker on The Long Game to discuss leadership, innovation, and what makes a category-defining business. Bob breaks down what goes into becoming a truly “backable" founder, drawing from his experience profiling early-stage leaders like Mark Zuckerberg and Brian Chesky. The pair also dive into the future of AI and what it means for productivity, how it will reshape the workforce, and why the next decade will reward CEOs who adapt quickly and make disciplined decisions in times of uncertainty.
