As the days get shorter and the weather becomes gloomy Sam and Vic are joined by the legendary Joe Baguley to brighten your day on a podcast filled with humour and insight.

Joe, Chief Technology Officer at Broadcom openly shares his motivations, driven by a lifelong curiosity and the knack for simplifying the complex. Known for his memorable "kittens and chickens" analogy to introduce Cloud, Joe's unique approach to technology intertwines with his ability to make intricate concepts simple.

Embracing the strength of neurodiversity, we venture into how diverse thinking enhances problem-solving and teaming, offering fresh perspectives even in traditional settings like the military.

We were thoroughly entertained as Joe shared how influencing without authority can be achieved through genuine conviction and emotional resonance. This philosophy has guided his leadership style, notably during his time at VMware, where he inspired an entire community to embrace change and innovation. Our conversation highlights the art of connecting people with technology, emphasizing the importance of translating technical jargon into language everyone can relate to.
