Show Notes

Dr. Gleb Tsipursky is a behavioral scientist, bestselling author, and CEO of Disaster Avoidance Experts. Known as the “Disaster Avoidance Expert,” Gleb helps leaders and organizations make better decisions, avoid costly cognitive biases, and navigate the human side of workplace change.


He is the author of several acclaimed books, including Never Go With Your Gut, and his newest release, The Psychology of AI Adoption at Work: From Resistance to Results, arrives September 1 from Georgetown University Press, with a foreword by Stanford economist Nick Bloom. The book explores why AI adoption often stalls—not because the technology fails, but because people fear, resist, or misunderstand the change—and offers practical, psychology-based strategies for turning that resistance into results.


In this conversation, Gleb shares how entrepreneurs, solo professionals, and small teams can use AI more thoughtfully and effectively than larger organizations often do. We talk about building confidence around AI, creating internal champions, measuring meaningful results, and using behavioral science to make smarter business decisions in an increasingly AI-driven workplace.
