What does it look like to lead with kindness and honesty in the fast tech world?
In this episode, host Jacqueline Stockwell talks with Peter Rising. Peter is a Senior Partner Cloud Solution Architect at Microsoft, a writer, and a YouTuber. He knows a lot about technology, but that is only part of his story. He also stands up for women in tech, cares deeply about mental health, and is an autism dad. Peter has Tourette’s syndrome, and he talks openly about his journey to show that leaders can look different than we think.
In this episode, Jacqueline and Peter talk about:
How Cloud Security Has Changed: How moving data to the cloud changed everything, and why companies need to plan ahead to stay safe.
Humans and AI: Why tools like Microsoft Copilot are great for helping us work, but still need human minds to guide them.
How to Be a Real Ally: Why men need to do more than just say they support women—they need to speak up when things are unfair.
Being Yourself at Work: Peter's experience public speaking with Tourette’s syndrome, and why workplaces need to give real support to people who think differently.
Avoiding Burnout: How Peter sets boundaries to log off from work, write books, and run his YouTube channel without burning out.
Peter reminds us that "every day is a school day." If you want to learn about cloud safety, AI, or making the workplace a better place for everyone, this episode is for you.

What happens when global associations stop competing… and start collaborating?
In this episode of Journals of the Information Entrepreneur, I’m joined live from the IRMS Conference by John Chambers, Chief Executive of the Archives and Records Association (UK & Ireland).
We talk into a powerful conversation about:
Why collaboration across global organisations is shaping the future of our profession
The real impact of AI on records management—and why a standalone AI policy might not be the answer
How associations are evolving to better support members at every stage of their careers
The role of advocacy, research, and professional development in strengthening the sector
Why now is one of the most exciting times to be working in information, archives, and records
This episode is a must-listen for information leaders, privacy professionals, and anyone navigating change in the AI-driven world of governance and data.
If you're thinking about your next bold move—this conversation will challenge and inspire you.
🔑 Key Takeaways
1. Collaboration is changing the game Global associations are coming together to share knowledge, resources, and innovation—creating stronger outcomes for members and the wider profession.
2. AI is not a standalone issue Instead of creating separate AI policies, organisations should embed AI considerations across all governance and operational policies.
3. Professional communities matter more than ever From training programmes to networking and career development, associations are playing a critical role in supporting professionals at every stage.
4. The sector is evolving globally Different regions are progressing at different speeds—but there’s huge value in learning from each other.
In this episode, Jacqueline Stockwell is joined by Rob Gerbrandt—a transformational strategist with over 30 years of leadership experience—to discuss the critical intersection of Information Governance (IG) and Artificial Intelligence. As organizations rush to adopt Large Language Models, they face a mounting challenge: how to prevent AI from hallucinating based on decades of "ROT" (Redundant, Obsolete, and Trivial data).
What You’ll Learn:
Cleaning the Content: Why 60-80% of your data might be "ROT" and how to purge it to improve AI accuracy.
Governance Frameworks: A look at the EU AI Act, NIST, and the UAE AI framework as models for the next 24 months.
The Human Element: Why education, awareness, and "Change Management" are more important than the software itself.
Accountability: Defining who "owns" the risk of an AI output in a corporate environment.
Chain of Custody: How to maintain an audit trail for algorithmic decisions.
About Our Guest:Rob Gerbrandt is a former Army Officer and elite IG professional (PMP, IGP, CRM) who specializes in aligning people, process, and technology in highly regulated environments. He most recently served as the Global Head of IG Advisory at Iron Mountain.
