Become the Linchpin: Irreplaceable Skills in the Age of AI

AI is reshaping the world of work. The real question isn’t “will I be replaced?” but “how do I stay valuable?”

That’s what we’ll tackle in this free, 1-hour interactive webinar: Becoming the Linchpin.

Instead of another flat lecture, we’re borrowing from retro Nintendo storytelling to explore Seth Godin’s Linchpin lessons alongside Facilitation Fundamentals.

Think of it as leveling up your own character sheet:

• 🍄 Facilitation → Clarity, not drama (your Mushroom power-up)
• 📜 Fluency → Translate AI for humans (your Magic Scroll)
• 🗺 Foresight → Spot what stays human (your Map to hidden levels)

We’ll also wrestle with a paradox: Godin urges us to be indispensable, while critics warn no one truly is. In the AI era, the win is becoming a linchpin without becoming a bottleneck.
