McKinsey says many employees think AI could replace 1/3 of their work in the next year.

Leaders often underestimate that fear. Fear is simply not resistance but a signal of low trust.

✨Real value comes when leaders invest in infrastructure, transparency, and support as much as tech. ✨

Gaslighting at its finest.

Some of you are slower then wisdom but wisdom isnt even bothering to try to catch you anymore…

AI in human resources How to master HR’s transformation from an administrative to strategic function.

😮‍💨 In HR, AI collides with legacy systems + silos.

🙅🏾‍♀️ It isn’t about layering tech

✅It’s about rethinking roles, workflows, and governance.

♻️ Without solid data architecture, we automate the wrong things. Infrastructure must scale before insights. Data engineering is crucial to scale successfully

You are punching down on scared, traumatized, desperate, and vulnerable people and you know it while simultaneously not making any effort to actually improve the cadidate experience.

The End of HR As We Know It? AI Is Starting To Change Everything. As AI agents arrive, it's time to seriously re-engineer HR. And this time it's not a transformation, it's a reinvention.

Just in case you needed to hear or read this today. It’s okay to be angry or hurt. It’s okay to feel betrayed.

You do not OWE gratitude. You owe yourself peace.

Leadership means embracing reciprocal human-machine learning to create systems that enhance, not replace, human capability.

Do not confuse being busy with being productive.

Leaders who reward activity over impact create wasted effort (and annoyed high performers).

Excited to share my latest piece in Harvard Business Review on the case for or against merging IT + HR at the highest levels.

I also had the privilege of chatting with Minh Hua, Julia Anas, and Meisha-ann Martin, Ph.D.— executive leaders I deeply admire.

What do you think about this topic? 👇🏾

If you know me, you know I’m an experience girlie no matter the domain.

Experiential AI blends art + tech to make AI something we feel, not just calculate. The future of AI is functional and relational.

Better design = deeper trust + better outcomes.
