The Leadership Test Every CEO Now Faces

For years, competitive advantage came from access to better information, stronger research, sharper analytics. That edge is fading fast. When AI can generate ideas, summaries, reports, and analysis in seconds, the differentiator is no longer access to intelligence. It is judgment. Darren Hardy unpacks the real shift happening inside companies right now. The people creating outsized value are not merely using AI. They are applying discernment, conviction, vision, and speed. They know which answers matter, which ones to discard, and when to move decisively. The key question is urgent and practical: for every person on your team, are they doing the right things or only doing things right that a machine now handles better? Key takeaways: -AI is making intelligence abundant, not judgment abundant. -The new edge belongs to leaders who can discern, decide, and act quickly. -Roles are not simply disappearing; many are being hollowed out from the middle. -Team members who add insight and initiative are becoming dramatically more valuable. -Efficiency without effectiveness is no longer enough. -The future belongs to those who pair sound judgment with accelerated execution.
