Michael Earls is a technology leader, enterprise strategist, and writer focused on the intersection of leadership, cloud computing, and artificial intelligence. In our conversation he brilliantly talks about what happens when speed outpaces direction and what it takes to come back. The Digital Compass isn’t another framework you have to remember or a productivity system. Earls shows us a path to check whether you’re still pointed where you said you want to go.
Here’s a look at our video chat:
The book uses four directions to ask the questions most people never quite ask themselves. North — what actually matters. East — what you’re letting in. South — how you’re spending your time. West — what you’re refusing to engage with. As Earls says the world keeps accelerating. AI. Cloud. Automation. Decision cycles compressing into hours. Notifications competing for attention every minute of every day. The Digital Compass: Finding Direction When Everything Moves Too Fast is a game changer. He has written two other books: Finding Direction in the Age of AI: Finding Clarity, Leadership and Human Connection a World Moving at Machine Speed and Wired for Purpose: A Daily Devotional for IT Professionals.
