Business Plus Talks, Series 2: Episode 1 – A Conversation on AI, Leadership and Change

Philip Lee LLP is delighted to share the first episode of Series 2 of Business Plus Talks, our podcast produced in association with Business Plus.

Hosted by David Burke, the series brings listeners candid conversations with CEOs, innovators, policymakers and change-makers, exploring the pivotal moments that shaped their careers and perspectives.

Series 2 opens with a timely discussion on artificial intelligence with Donnchadh Casey, who joined F5 following its acquisition of CalypsoAI last year.

In the episode, Casey reflects on leadership under pressure, the importance of remaining composed when the stakes are high, and the challenges of working on large‑scale projects that fail to reach delivery. He also shares his perspective on the rapidly expanding role of AI in business, emphasising both the scale of opportunity and the disruption it will bring.

Comparing AI to the early days of electricity, Casey highlights how transformative technologies create unforeseen industries and opportunities while warning that businesses which fail to adapt risk being left behind.

The episode offers an insightful look at Casey’s career journey alongside a clear‑eyed assessment of how AI is reshaping the business landscape.

We are proud to support this podcast and bring you conversations that inspire, challenge and inform, just as our values inspire us to lead the way in law and business.

Business Plus Talks Series 2 in association with Philip Lee LLP, is available across all podcast players, with a new episode released every Wednesday.
