Great Expectations

A Podcast on AI, Leadership & The Future of Work

Exceptional conversations for extraordinary times.

About the Podcast

AI is no longer a distant idea – it’s reshaping how we lead, connect, and work. But between the buzzwords and breakthroughs, how do we find what really matters?

Great Expectations is a podcast from Jabra that cuts through the noise. We sit down with leading voices from academia, enterprise, and technology to unpack how AI is changing the way we think, decide, and build the workplaces of tomorrow.

Whether you're a CIO, people manager, or simply AI-curious – we’re here to ask the questions that move the conversation forward.
