AI technology is changing faster than humans can adapt to change, and current adoption is creating a capability divide. Well-resourced organizations (especially tech companies) with internal AI teams, innovation budgets, Big 4 consulting relationships, and economics that allow them to fail through layoffs are pulling away. Everyone else faces the full force of headwinds: the hype sets expectations impossibly high, first experiments underwhelm, tools change before the team has learned the last version, internal champions burn out carrying the load alone, and confidence erodes with each false start. 

Think about the person on your team who is frustrating you most right now. The one where you've already built a story about their motives. Before your next interaction, ask yourself one question: what are they trying to get right? What you find on the other side is almost always better than the story you've been telling yourself.

Pride and regret and guilt and excitement and grief and loneliness and shame had been boiling inside me for days. I wasn’t going to be able to digest them all because we’re not built that way.

Before I even knew what to call them, Culture Fit and Eudaimonia were the essential common threads of my life, spanning jobs, organizations, and even interpersonal relationships.
