Is AI driving genuine efficiency — or just automating the wrong things faster? In this episode, Lara hosts Minaam Khatri, Regional Director at WPP Media, for a candid conversation about what marketing and leadership look like when algorithms can do almost everything. Almost.

We dive deep into:

- ✅ The Perception Gap: Why big audience numbers mean nothing if your audience doesn't understand what your brand actually stands for.
- ✅ AI as Tool, Not Oracle: How to use AI platforms without losing the creative authenticity that makes your brand worth following.
- ✅ Long-Form as a Strategy: Why podcasts and meaningful conversations cut through the noise of mass-produced, soulless content.
- ✅ The Human Advantage: Why empathy, emotional intelligence, and the guts to make real decisions are the one thing no algorithm can replicate.
