From AI Activity to Advantage
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Artificial intelligence is evolving rapidly, but thoughtful strategy will always outlast the latest technology.
In the final installment of our three-part AI series, Pam Howland, Jennifer Walrath, Doug Plass, and AI governance and strategy consultant Ally Ross discuss what separates organizations that are successfully leveraging AI from those creating unnecessary risk.
The conversation explores why employers shouldn't feel pressured to "keep up" with every new AI development, how strong governance and clean data create a foundation for long-term success, and why the organizations seeing the greatest return from AI are using it to enhance—not replace—their people.
The group also discusses AI agents, the importance of ongoing oversight as technology evolves, and why employers of every size should begin building an AI strategy now—even if they're just getting started.
Whether your organization is actively implementing AI or simply trying to understand what comes next, this episode offers practical guidance for building an AI program that is strategic, compliant, and built to last.
