The Ryan Report: February 2026

I’ve been partnering with organizations that are experimenting with AI, and a pattern keeps emerging: the tools are ready, but people often aren’t given the clarity, structure, or support they need to use them well. In my latest video, I dig into this “readiness gap”—what causes it, how it shows up in everyday work, and the leadership behaviors that actually help close it.

In this month’s Ryan Report, my focus is on growth—how we help people step into new roles, build stronger learning strategies, and lead effectively across distance. Whether it’s rethinking onboarding as a relationship, using data to strengthen learning maturity, or communicating with more intention in distributed teams, everything in this issue comes back to one core belief: when we offer clarity and purpose, we create the conditions where capability and connection can thrive.
