Using AI at Work: AI in the Workplace & Generative AI for Business Leaders

75: Using AI at Work to Activate Humans in the Workplace with Kristin Ginn

• Chris Daigle

In this episode, Chris Daigle is joined by Kristin Ginn, founder of trnsfrmAItn, to discuss the real reason most companies fail with AI adoption. Spoiler: it is not the technology. It is the humans.

Kristin breaks down why AI productivity gains at the individual level rarely translate into measurable organizational outcomes and how to close that gap by activating employees through mindset shifts, habit building and better enablement strategies. You will learn how leaders can make AI visible from the top down and how champions can drive change from the bottom up so the entire organization benefits.

This conversation is a practical guide for business leaders who want AI to increase productivity, energy and competitive capability without leaving humans behind.
