The Gap Between Consulting and Reality
Most AI advice for HR comes from people who have never deployed a single product, tool, or model inside a real business environment, let alone a Fortune 500.
They sell slides. We don’t need that today. The world moves too fast.
We build systems. We conduct with practitioners. We share what’s working.
But just as important, what’s not.
I lead AI Transformation & Strategy for the People function at a global tech company. Every day, I see the gap between what AI can do and what HR leaders are actually equipped to build.
That’s why I started the HR AI Institute — The Dispatch is my notes.
The Dispatch is your weekly field intelligence. No fluff. No borrowed wisdom. Just the conversations, frameworks, and playbooks we use to move the needle.
What You Can Expect Every Week
Field Intelligence: Lessons from the "inside. From both myself and others. " What happens when the pilot meets the reality of enterprise data.
The Frameworks: We don't talk in generalities. We use the models to assess readiness and the governance to de-risk deployment.
Playbook Drops: The exact step-by-step guides we give our advisory clients. Yours for free.
Why Now?
88% of HR teams report zero ROI from their AI initiatives. They aren't failing because the tech is broken. They are failing because they lack a practitioner’s roadmap.
We are moving from "curiosity" to "production." From "pilot" to "scale."
I’m building this in public because the stakes are too high for us to get this wrong.
AI shouldn’t replace your team; it should enable them to do the work they actually signed up for.
Welcome to the frontier.
Let’s build.
