What Training 500 Non-Technical Professionals Taught Me About Why AI Pilots Stall in Regulated Industries
Most enterprise AI pilots fail because employees are uncertain, governance is unclear, and training does not reflect how people actually work. Drawing on experience training more than 500 non-technical professionals, this session reveals what separates organizations that scale AI from those that stall. Attendees will leave with practical frameworks to diagnose adoption barriers, establish right-sized governance, improve data readiness, and turn skeptical employees into confident, responsible AI users.
