ABOUT THIS EPISODE
71% of employees just faced major disruption—most of it AI-driven. Yet in most organizations, HR isn't in the room when AI strategy gets decided.
In this urgent conversation, Kim Bohr and change management expert Maria Ross reveal why HR has approximately six months to claim their seat at the AI transformation table—or risk watching technology teams make people decisions without you.
Drawing on SparkEffect's groundbreaking Trust Study showing only 36% of organizations emerge stronger from disruption, they expose the hidden cost of treating AI as "just a tech project." You'll discover the exact conversation starters that get HR heard, why empathetic leadership drives 61% more innovation, and which crisis interventions actually preserve trust (hint: transparency about uncertainty backfires).
This isn't about ChatGPT adoption. It's about positioning HR as the architect of human-centered transformation—before someone else defines your organization's future.

Most owners cannot say yes, and on this episode of Courage to Advance, host Kim Bohr and Ted Wolf dig into why that answer is also the reason so many businesses never sell. A company that …
Only 2% of leaders believe their performance management process adds any real value. That is a problem, because the number one driver of profit growth in any company is people growth. When the system built to grow people is broken, growth stalls.
