How to Use AI to Think, Lead, and Grow Smarter | EP 205

Is AI a threat to your career—or the ultimate tool to help you lead and innovate? In this episode of Engineer Your Success, Silicon Valley entrepreneur Greg Shove shares how artificial intelligence can be used to sharpen thinking, improve leadership, and unlock growth.

With over 35 years in tech and seven startups under his belt, Greg explains how to become an AI driver—using AI as a thought partner rather than a shortcut—and why early adoption can give leaders and teams a lasting competitive edge.

You’ll learn:

  • How to avoid losing yourself in the grind of entrepreneurship or leadership.
  • Why adopting AI early can give you more room to innovate and grow.
  • The mindset shift from “AI is cheating” to “AI is a thought partner.”
  • Practical ways to integrate AI into your daily work for better thinking, leadership, and results.

📌 Mentioned in this episode:

  • Greg Shove – CEO of Section and Chairman of Machine & Partners | LinkedIn
  • Section’s AI Academy – Upskill your team in AI adoption

💡 Take Action:
Experiment with AI daily. Treat it as your copilot, not your autopilot—bring your own expertise, judgment, and creativity, and let AI help you think bigger, move faster, and grow smarter.
