Our AI Rollout:
What’s Working, what’s not
Wednesday, May 27, 2026
11am to 12:30pm CT
Register for the Zoom link and details.
What is it?
Not a webinar. Expect to learn, contribute, and connect — and no pressure to speak in front of the large group. Plan to have your camera on—option to unmute. Wear what you wear when Zooming for work or school. No expertise is needed. We’ll serve as your guide every step of the way.
Is your AI rollout “done”?
The decision was made.
The tools are live.
The trainings happened.
So why does adoption still feel uneven—and in some places, quietly stalled?
Because it’s easy to assume:
Decisions = execution
Training = adoption
But AI isn’t just another tool being introduced into an organization.
It’s something we’re all encountering, interpreting, and shaping in real time—across roles, companies, and contexts.
And that raises a different kind of question:
What if AI rollout isn’t just a top-down implementation effort—but a shared human one?
This 90-minute PopUpThinkTank brings together People leaders, decision-makers, virtual Chief Information Officers and individuals experiencing AI rollout firsthand.
Together, we’ll explore what’s actually getting in the way of meaningful adoption—and what it would take to shift it.
Not the strategy decks or launch announcements, but the friction, assumptions, and human dynamics shaping what works and what doesn’t .
Together, we’ll explore questions like:
What are we missing when we treat decisions as execution and training as adoption?
Why does the most advanced technology we’ve ever seen still get introduced in ways that feel decades behind?
What changes when we stop viewing AI as something being “rolled out” and start seeing it as something we’re collectively learning how to live and work with?
This is not a demo, webinar, panel, or pitch.
You’ll join 25+ thinkers navigating this shared moment together, with multiple ways to contribute—without any pressure to speak in front of the full group.
Because this isn’t just about tools.
It’s about judgment, sensemaking, and how humans adapt together.
What emerges won’t come from our content alone. It will come from the room we create together.
Expect a facilitated session that is well-organized but not overly structured. You won’t just have a conversation—you’ll help co-create something usable and, with your help, seeing what emerges in real time.
Come curious.
Leave with meaningful new connections (if you do your part), greater visibility into how insight emerges, and a clearer sense of what it really takes to roll out AI—together.
Get the setup.
In minutes, you’ll be briefed on the challenge everyone’s thinking about but no one’s solved.
Tackle it together.
Bring your ideas, your instincts, and your hard-won wisdom—no pressure to talk in front of a large group.
Leave connected.
Walk away with new insights, new allies, and a co-created resource you’ll want to share..

3 Session Design Principles
-
Max Value in Minimal Time
🧭 Tight structure, expansive outcomes
→ Creativity loves constraints. A compressed 90-minute session—but with pacing, clarity, and purposeful transitions creates space for expansive thought. The result: sharp focus without fatigue, and momentum without dilution. -
Participation Without Pressure
🧩 Multiple ways to show up.
→ We designed for contribution without obligation. Insight rounds and breakout moments offer space for different voices to enter—without requiring everyone to speak to the whole group. This supports inclusion, honors psychological safety, and invites both introverts and extroverts to meaningfully engage. -
Momentum Over Resolution
⚡ Design for movement, not final answers.
→ We don’t push for consensus. Instead, we generate energy, alignment, and individual-level next steps. A closing engagement survey captures what stuck, what sparked, and what’s next—so teams leave with traction, not just discussion.
Momentum for moments that matter.
30+ Thinkers. 90 Minutes. 100s of Ideas & Connections. 1 Challenge.
Experiences that build communities around entrepreneurs and projects that solve problems and make a difference.
