Brad Eather, Australian communication strategist and the mind behind Tomorrow Communications, talks to John Watson about digital transformation and how professionals can turn credibility into influence.

This is a masterclass in connection, confidence, and digital communication and they unpack:
- Why digital isn’t a marketing tool, it’s a relationship channel.
- How to create content that sparks real conversations.
- What salespeople should actually measure in 2025.
- The human side of AI and why your voice still matters.

They also reflect on Brad’s personal journey from burnout to balance and how his Personal Compass Exercise helps others find direction.
