In Episode 29 of The Intersection by Oak Leyden, R.J. McMahon sits down with Pat for a conversation about leadership, technology, artificial intelligence, career growth, and finding balance in a constantly changing world.

Pat shares lessons from his journey in technology, from early software development and the dot-com era to working at IBM and building solutions for modern businesses. The conversation explores how AI can automate repetitive tasks, connect systems, organize company knowledge, and give teams more time to focus on strategic work.

They also discuss hands-on leadership, building strong company cultures, defining what it really means to win, and why cultural fit matters when evaluating business partnerships and acquisitions.

For recent graduates entering the tech industry, Pat offers advice on learning how to think, solve problems, experiment, and develop patience throughout the journey.

The conversation also gets personal, exploring remote work boundaries, family time, youth sports, and the creation of Sportifier, an app designed to help families manage the chaos of youth sports schedules.
