The hardest part isn’t AI. It’s us.
It’s the mindset and behavior shift — whether you’re a team of 5 or 500 — from using AI as a tool to guiding it as a teammate. The transformation can start quickly when you put people first.
I loved seeing this happen with Intuit’s marketing and communications team:
170 professionals became nearly 600 by building ~400 AI teammates in just a few hours
The shift from AI primarily for content creation to AI for ideation, research, analytics, automation, and personalization
From curiosity to confidence with everyone hands-on keyboard, learning together
What amazed me most was watching them move from wondering what AI could do to confidently building AI teammates they’d use immediately. Seeing the possibilities when AI handles repetitive tasks and serves as a thought partner. That’s when real adoption happens.
This team is going to inspire others and truly reimagine how work gets done. What a gift – a company investing in upskilling its people for both business growth and individual career success.
Many thanks Mos’ Okediji, Kim Klinedinst Miller, Emily Valencia, and Jessica Cheng for the opportunity to keynote these sessions. You’ve inspired me right back. Natalie Lambert, I loved partnering with you and learning alongside you.
Nothing energizes me more than seeing this kind of impact in action.
