In this episode of Data & AI Mastery, Dr. Raoul-Gabriel Urma sits down with Tamar Yehoshua, Advisor and former President of Product & Technology at Glean, and former Chief Product Officer at Slack and VP at Google.

Throughout this episode you will learn what AI literacy looks like in the boardroom today and why imagination, not just infrastructure, is the biggest barrier to AI transformation. You will also hear Tamar give us her take on the evolving role of AI agents in reshaping work across engineering, sales, and product and how the next generation of leaders can bridge the gap between incremental improvement and radical reimagination.
You’ll also hear insights on how top companies are defining their AI metrics, the role of boards in demanding ROI from AI investments, and why the most successful leaders are those who remain authentic, transparent, and consistent.
If you’re navigating AI transformation or leading teams through change, this is a conversation you won’t want to miss.
