In this episode of The People Dividend, Mike Horne speaks with Anya Cheng, former product leader at Target, Meta, eBay, and McDonald's, and founder/CEO of Tailor AI. They explore why execution gets harder as organizations scale, how clarity breaks down in large companies, and why leaders often confuse data, metrics, and alignment with true decision-making.

 

Key Points:

  • Execution becomes harder as organizations grow.

  • Data alone has limits in decision-making.

  • Clarity can break down inside large organizations.

  • Goals, tactics, strategy, and mission are not the same thing.

  • Teams slow down when they do not share a common goal.

  • Alignment improves when leaders agree on selection criteria first.

  • Startup life moves faster and feels more intense than big tech.

  • AI can create noise when it is not paired with unique company data.

  • Context and transitions matter more in today's workplace.
