Google’s Chief Talent & Learning Officer: Why We Develop for Agility, Not Just Ability

What if the best way to lead isn’t by having all the answers—but by asking better questions?

Brian Glaser, Google’s Vice President and Chief Talent and Learning Officer, shares a leadership philosophy grounded in humility, agility, and experimentation.  

From his early days at JetBlue Airways to shaping Google’s leadership school, Brian explains how the best talent leaders balance clarity with curiosity—and why the future belongs to those who embrace change.

Brian also shares:

  • How to turn 1-on-1s into high-impact coaching sessions
  • His transition from individual contributor (“making lightning strike”) to leadership (“creating the conditions for lightning to strike”)
  • Why AI won’t replace you—but someone using it might
