With the rise of ChatGPT, automation tools, and AI copywriting assistants, today’s managers are walking a tightrope. On one side: innovation and efficiency. On the other: unclear quality control, dropped context, and team members who may be over reliant on AI.

In this powerful episode of The New Manager Playbook, leadership expert Lia Garvin dives into the heart of AI in the workplace and what it means for modern leadership skills.
She walks through two urgent questions facing every manager:
(1) How do you set boundaries for AI use without stifling innovation?
(2) What should you do with the hours your team saves using team productivity tools?

You’ll learn why setting team expectations is your best weapon against AI misuse and how to help your people stay relevant—not replaced. Lia also addresses how to evaluate employee performance when the workload shifts, especially for freelancers and remote team members. With practical strategies for ethical AI in business, this episode will help you confidently navigate the future of work.

If your team is leaning too hard on AI and you're unsure how to respond, this episode is for you.
