In this episode of Liderii de Mâine, we are joined by Janet Nash, retired international securities lawyer and former Senior Vice President at American Century Investments, where she helped lead a global financial organization managing hundreds of billions of dollars in assets. Janet challenges a common assumption: leadership is not something reserved for the future or for those with titles. Leadership starts now. Through personal stories from her career, family life, and volunteer work, she unpacks the core qualities that define real leadership—respect, kindness, and integrity. She explains why you don’t need a position to be a leader, how leading yourself comes before leading others, and why the way you treat people matters more than the roles you hold. This episode is both practical and deeply personal, inviting listeners to reflect on their values, their goals, and how everyday choices shape the kind of leaders they are becoming. Janet’s message is clear and compelling: leadership is less about power and success, and more about character, influence, and the courage to do the right thing—even when no one is watching. A powerful conversation for students, young professionals, and anyone who wants to make a meaningful impact—starting today.

What does it really mean to have a mentor—and why is mentorship essential for lasting leadership growth? In this episode, Kevin Nunnally, former Global Vice President at IBM, shares lessons from a 34-year career in global leadership and his ongoing passion for mentoring students, professionals, and leaders across generations. Drawing from real stories and hard-won experience, Kevin explains why mentoring is not about copying someone else’s path, but about guidance, character, and helping others reach their full potential. You’ll hear why availability matters more than ability, how great mentors listen and ask powerful questions, and why most people never have a mentor—not because they don’t need one, but because they never ask. Kevin also reflects on how mentorship accelerates growth, builds confidence, and helps leaders avoid costly mistakes along the way. As Kevin puts it, a mentor is someone who can give you the answers to the test before you take it. Whether you’re a student, a young professional, or a seasoned leader, this episode will challenge you to pursue mentorship—and to become the kind of leader who gives back.

This episode brings together professors and leaders from academia and the corporate world in a realistic conversation about how education and the job market are evolving in a world driven by automation and artificial intelligence. Starting from the question, “How can we prepare students for the next decade?”, the guests explore the role of AI as a tool to enhance thinking, not replace it, and emphasize the importance of human competencies that cannot be automated — critical thinking, adaptability, collaboration, and empathy. Kevin Nunnally discusses the balance between technical and interpersonal skills; Adriana Davidescu highlights the need for lifelong learning and interdisciplinarity; Janet Nash reflects on the role of ethics, respect, and integrity in shaping true leaders; and Sorin Anagnoste analyzes current labor market trends in Romania, focusing on the challenges faced by young graduates. The conversation is both honest and inspiring, blending data-driven insights with personal experiences and practical advice. The shared message is clear: in a rapidly changing world, success belongs to those who think critically, stay curious, and hold on to their character. An essential episode for anyone seeking to understand how education, work, and leadership are being redefined in the 21st century.
