As AI and automation transform nearly every corner of the workplace, one question is becoming more urgent: Are we equipping our frontline leaders to keep up — or setting them up to fail? Our guest on this episode Of MillenniumLive has been thinking deeply about this challenge — and building the tools to solve it. We’re joined by Dan Johnston, CEO and co-founder of WorkStep, a company leading the charge in helping frontline teams thrive in such a rapidly changing world. Dan believes the key to reducing turnover, improving retention, and driving frontline productivity isn’t just better tech — it’s reimagining the role of the frontline manager itself. In this episode, we dig into with Dan on how AI can enable smarter leadership and some case studies proving how some successful companies are doing differently to empower their teams.
Key Topics Discussed:
✔️ Why "manager relationship" is one of the top drivers of frontline attrition
✔️ How AI is reshaping coaching, communication, and retention in real-time
✔️ What happens — financially and culturally — when we fail to support our people leaders

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
