Inspired by Next Level University Episode 1741, Charly discusses the crucial decision of whether to prioritise attitude or aptitude when hiring new team members.
She explores the idea that while skills can be taught, a positive mindset is harder to cultivate. Charly also emphasises the importance of team cohesiveness and how the attitude of individual team members can significantly impact the overall team dynamic.
Drawing from her own experiences as a tech team leader, Charly shares valuable insights on why hiring for attitude can lead to a more cohesive, motivated, and successful team.

Life is busy and there's just so many things to remember. What tools do you use to help you keep on top of ALL the things?

✅ Why "good enough" can be the most costly option for your business
✅ When vibe coding makes sense and when it absolutely does not
✅ The hybrid approach - using AI for ideas and content while letting a professional handle the technical build

AI features are being quietly switched on inside the tools you already use for business - and most owners have no idea. From Microsoft Copilot to Google Gemini and Zoom AI Companion, these features are enabled by default, accessing your emails, documents and meetings without you making a conscious decision about it.
In this episode, Charly covers:
✅ Why tech companies enable AI features by default - and what that means for your data
✅ How AI tools expand your attack surface by accessing emails, calls and documents
✅ The hidden risk of shadow AI - employees using AI tools the business does not know about
✅ A step-by-step approach to auditing your apps, phone permissions and privacy settings
✅ Why default AI privacy settings are not configured with your security as the priority
Make this a regular check - at least once a quarter - because settings can reset with every update.
