"summary": "Julie Zhuo returns to Lenny's podcast three years after her first appearance as the guest. She discusses how management skills translate directly to working effectively with AI systems and agents. Julie shares her journey from being Head of Design at Meta to founding Sundial, an AI-powered data analysis company. Key themes include the flattening of organizational hierarchies due to AI enablement, the importance of clarity in goal-setting when working with both humans and AI, why data should be used to diagnose problems while design solves them, and timeless management principles like feedback, self-awareness, and finding win-win solutions. The conversation explores how teams are becoming smaller and more empowered, eliminating traditional role boundaries through AI augmentation.",
