In a world increasingly shaped by algorithms and AI, does human connection still matter? We dive into this question and more in the second episode of Global Mentorship Initiative (GMI)’s new podcast series, The Human Network with Jon Browning. The latest episode features Justin Thenutai, Microsoft’s Vice President of Human Resources – Core AI, and member of the GMI board of directors.

In this conversation, Justin and Jon discuss what actually matters for early career professionals who are entering a new age of work, soon to be dominated by AI. They’ll talk about their own career journeys, how mentors shaped their view of work, and what motivates them to give back.

You’ll also hear about:
• What drew Justin to GMI’s mission and why he serves as a volunteer board member
• Which skills and qualities matter most when it comes to thriving at work
• How Microsoft is preparing tomorrow’s technology workers for an AI-enhanced future
