Along the way, he explains why resistance, trial and error, and even failure aren’t liabilities — they’re signals of growth.

Josh Burkhead is a Senior Podcast Producer and Host at Pluralsight, where he leads the Pluralsight Podcast — a weekly conversation series built for L&D and technology leaders navigating the fast-moving world of AI, cybersecurity, cloud, and workforce development. With over two decades in content production, Josh brings a practitioner's curiosity to every episode. His approach is conversational and assumption-challenging — less interested in surface-level takes than in the decisions, tradeoffs, and hard-won lessons that leaders actually use. Whether he's pressing a PCI security standards architect on why policies fail in the real world or asking an AI expert what responsible machine learning actually looks like inside an enterprise, Josh treats every conversation as an opportunity to learn out loud alongside his audience.
