Great discussion in our 𝗔𝗜-𝗗𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿 𝘄𝗲𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗮𝗿, where I shared highlights from 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗻𝗳𝗼𝗿𝗱 𝗢𝗻𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗲’𝘀 𝗔𝗜-𝗗𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗻 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽: 𝗦𝘁𝗿𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗴𝗶𝗲𝘀 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗙𝘂𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗲 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺 and explored what this means in practice for leaders and managers.

A few key takeaways:

🔹 A key role for managers is Framing, Structuring and Evaluating AI — creating clarity around why AI matters, embedding it into real workflows and assessing whether it is delivering measurable value.

🔹 Start with the work, not the technology — identify friction, redesign workflows and be deliberate about what AI does and where human judgement remains critical.

🔹 Build AI fluency, not just tool familiarity — people need the confidence and capability to experiment, critically evaluate outputs and use AI effectively.

🔹 Measure outcomes, not AI activity — look at whether AI is improving time, quality, capacity, decision-making and risk, then continuously refine how it is being used.

🔹 Managers are the bridge between AI strategy and everyday behaviour — modelling use, creating psychological safety and helping teams build new ways of working.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and contributed to such a practical discussion.

What do you think is the most important role managers need to play in successful AI adoption?

The 2026 Admin Avenues Conference Series is in full swing and kicking off in Adelaide. A room full of executive assistants, big questions and real conversations about where their value sits in an AI-enabled workplace.

A few of the key takeaways we've been exploring with EAs:

🧠 Think first, then think with AI - open up new ways to think and solve problems
🤝 How to build your human value — beginning, middle and end
📈 The value shift - What is the value you really need to bring to stay relevant
✍️ CREATE Great prompts - build and lead your own AI team
✍️ Prompting is a thinking skill, not a tech skill
👥 Lead your AI team
🔍 The output is not the finish line
🌱 You are not behind

Thanks, Candice Burningham, for the opportunity to be part of this conference series.

The conversation is only just getting started. We're bringing 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗣𝗼𝘄𝗲𝗿 𝗣𝗮𝗿𝘁𝗻𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽: 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗯𝗶𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗔𝗜 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗛𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗲𝗹𝗹𝗶𝗴𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗕𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝗪𝗼𝗿𝗸𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝗢𝘂𝘁𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘀 to the next two stops: 📍 Sydney — 12 October 📍 Brisbane — 26 October

It was great to be back with the leadership team at Harbourside Port Stephens for another session in their leadership development journey — this time focusing on 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗖𝗼𝗮𝗰𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴.

With so much change happening across aged care, leaders are being asked to do more than manage processes. They need to help people make sense of change, stay connected through uncertainty, build confidence and create the conditions for new behaviours to stick.

A few of the ideas we explored included:

🔹 how the brain responds to change, uncertainty and perceived threat
🔹 why leaders need to go beyond the what and how and communicate a compelling why
🔹 how to inspire and engage people through change rather than simply manage tasks and timelines
🔹 the shift from telling and solving to asking, coaching and helping people generate their own insight
🔹 how coaching can build ownership, capability and confidence
🔹 why sustainable change depends on habit formation, attention and reinforcement over time

We also explored a brain-based approach to coaching using GROW-WISE — moving beyond what is immediately observable to uncover the thinking, insight and possibilities beneath the surface.

Thank you to Kylie and Paul for the continued partnership and for investing in the capability of your leadership team.

It was fantastic to be back partnering with the Corporate Affairs & Governance Extended Leadership Team at Allianz for another conversation on 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝗜 𝗔𝗱𝗼𝗽𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝗮𝗻 𝗔𝗜-𝗲𝗻𝗮𝗯𝗹𝗲𝗱 𝘄𝗼𝗿𝗹𝗱.

Building on the great work this group is already doing to navigate change, foster innovation and support their people through emerging technologies, we explored how leaders can move from personal AI productivity to creating strategic advantage across their team

Some of the key conversations:
✅ Lead with the reward side of AI, not fear and uncertainty
✅ Create psychological safety for people to experiment, learn and challenge ideas
✅ Use AI to improve the quality of human thinking, not replace it
✅ Keep human judgement, critical thinking and accountability in the loop
✅ Focus less on the technology and more on the leadership required to unlock value from it

Thanks Dianne Zwar, for your partnership and for the CA&G group for such an engaged, thoughtful and future-focused conversation.

What's the biggest leadership challenge you're seeing as AI becomes part of everyday work?

What a fantastic afternoon speaking at Optus’ Big Learning Fiesta on 𝗖𝗘𝗢 𝗼𝗳 𝗬𝗼𝘂: 𝗧𝗵𝗿𝗶𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗧𝗵𝗿𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗻𝗴𝗲.

In an AI-enabled world, staying relevant isn’t only about what your organisation provides. It’s also about the ownership we take for building our own capability.
Being the CEO of You means being proactive about your career, your learning and how you work — including learning how to use AI to augment your own thinking, not replace it.

The opportunity is to get better at using 𝗯𝗼𝘁𝗵 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗔𝗜.

Our human judgement, context, creativity, empathy and critical thinking combined with AI’s speed, processing power and ability to help us explore, analyse and create.
Workplaces still play an important role in providing access, guardrails, support and psychological safety for experimentation. But individuals have agency too — to experiment, learn, ask better questions and discover where AI can make them more effective in their own role.

And when people build that capability themselves, organisations benefit from greater confidence, experimentation, adaptability and productivity.

One of the practical ideas we explored was creating your own personal C-Suite:
🔹 Chief Executive Officer → Think: Set direction, priorities and ownership
🔹 Chief Operations Officer → Regulate: Protect your energy, focus and performance
🔹 Chief Marketing Officer → Engage: Clarify your value and influence others
🔹 Chief Transformation Officer → Adapt: Build an AI-enabled way of working
🔹 Chief Human Resources Officer → Develop: Build future-fit capability
🔹 Chief Finance Officer → Invest: Deliberately invest your time, attention, energy and learning

Thank you to Anne Mantoukos, George El Chami and the broader Optus team for the opportunity to be part of this year’s Big Learning Fiesta — a fantastic initiative bringing people together to build capability, share ideas and prepare for the future.

And great to see you in the session, Morgana Waters.

Which role in your personal C-Suite do you most need to step into right now?

Feeling grateful for the opportunity to support more than 200 attendees at the Allianz Fit4Future Learning Expo.

𝟰.𝟴𝟯 𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗼𝗳 𝟱 ⭐ 𝗳𝗿𝗼𝗺 𝗺𝗼𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝗻 𝟮𝟬𝟬 𝗮𝘁𝘁𝗲𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗲𝘀 — and the feedback was even better than the score.

Our 𝗛𝘂𝗺𝗮𝗻 𝗶𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗼𝗼𝗽 session was built using some of our latest thinking from the Stanford AI-Driven Leadership program, so it was great to hear what participants actually took away:

💬 "Interesting connections between AI and how the human brain works."

💬 "Kristen explained really clearly how as a human you can interact with AI and get better outcomes."

💬 "Well-paced and engaging... interesting and visually appealing."

And this one really stood out:
💬 "The confidence it has given me to be open to AI within my role and personal life."

Not just people leaving with more information about AI, but leaving more confident, more curious and more willing to use it.

A big thank you to Allianz for having me as part of Fit4Future Learning Expo.

If you're looking to help your leaders and teams build confidence, capability and better judgement around AI, our Human in the Loop session can be delivered as a keynote or workshop.

AI is rapidly changing how work gets done. But becoming AI-driven isn’t simply about giving people access to ChatGPT, Copilot or another AI tool. It requires leaders to rethink workflows, decision-making, human judgement, experimentation and the role people play alongside AI.

Drawing on key insights from Stanford’s AI-Driven Leader program, combined with my work in neuroscience, leadership, change and AI adoption, I’ll be sharing practical lessons on:

• Why AI adoption is a leadership and behavioural change challenge, not just a technology challenge
• How to identify and redesign workflows where AI can create meaningful value
• The leadership levers of framing, structuring and evaluating to help teams move from AI experimentation to improved workflows, thinking and productivity.
• Why confident AI answers can still be wrong, and how to strengthen critical judgement
• Where humans need to remain in the loop
• How leaders can create greater experimentation, learning and psychological safety around AI
• Practical behaviours for becoming a more AI-driven leader

Two days. One powerful reminder: 𝗳𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗵𝗶𝗽 𝗶𝘀 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗹𝗹 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝘀𝘄𝗲𝗿𝘀 — 𝗶𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗸𝗲𝗲𝗽 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗰𝗵𝗮𝗹𝗹𝗲𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘄𝗮𝗿𝗱.

I loved being part of the IWF Australia 𝗡𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻𝗮𝗹 𝗦𝘆𝗺𝗽𝗼𝘀𝗶𝘂𝗺 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟲 — 𝗙𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗹𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗟𝗲𝗮𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀.

It was an action-packed two days of conversations spanning technology, public service, political leadership, global change, sport, AI, social impact, wellbeing and navigating disruption.

We heard from an extraordinary range of leaders, including Susan Coyle AM CSC DSM, Chief of Army, Sarah Court, Chair of ASIC, Dr RaShall Brackney, Chief of Police in Jackson, Mississippi, Carol Schwartz AO, on the importance of women in political leadership, and Dr Samantha Pillay on using AI for good.

But some of the greatest value was also in the conversations between sessions — connecting as women, exchanging perspectives and learning from people whose leadership journeys look very different from our own.

The International Women’s Forum brings together more than 8,000 accomplished women leaders globally, creating a powerful community for connection, leadership and developing the women who will lead next.

As Leadership Director on the Board of IWF Australia, I’m particularly proud to be part of a community that is not only bringing established leaders together, but investing in the next generation.

Because in a world being reshaped by AI, geopolitical change, disruption and uncertainty, we need more women prepared to lead boldly — and to bring other women with them.

What does fearless leadership look like to you right now?

So happy to speak at the Educate Plus International Conference: Building Futures 2026 on Leading Psychosocial Risk in an AI-enabled World.

800 school and education leaders from across Australia in one room — that's a pretty special group to be talking with about this.

A few of the things we dig into:
🧠 Psychosocial risk isn't an HR issue — it's a risk multiplier. When people are fatigued, uncertain or afraid to speak up, every other risk gets worse.

⚡ AI doesn't create new hazards so much as amplify the ones already there — workload, role clarity, change fatigue, trust.

🔍 Under pressure the brain narrows. You don't get your best thinking, you get your fastest thinking — and that's where decisions quietly go wrong.

🚀 The same AI uncertainty can be read as a threat or as a challenge. Leaders have far more influence over which one their team lands in than they think.

💡 Managing AI adoption is about tools, policies and rollout. Leading it is about people, mindset, trust and behaviour — and only leaders can do that part.

Thank you Josephine De B**r for the opportunity to be part of this conference and for the lovely gift that represents our shift to Spring's warmer weather too!! 🌸

So great to see Barker College — our kids' school — nominated for the Fundraising Event award, and the funds raised going to support Indigenous education programs and scholarships. All the best for the announcement today, Mr Phillip Heath and the whole Barker team! 🎉

Such a great day facilitating Allianz Technology’s Culture Day — bringing leaders together to strengthen how they collaborate, communicate and lead across teams.

We spent the day reconnecting with the Allianz Culture Compass and exploring what it looks like to turn those commitments into everyday behaviour — particularly when priorities compete, deadlines tighten or perspectives differ.

A big focus was on how we:
• regulate ourselves so we can respond rather than react
• challenge ideas and behaviours constructively
• lead with curiosity before judgement
• understand the pressures and perspectives other teams are navigating
• move away from our in-group bias towards ie. us and them
• create shared language and accountability around the culture we want to build
• recognise the leadership shadow — what we model, reinforce, tolerate and challenge

Thank you to Glenn Slater and Astrid James for the opportunity to work together on the day, and to the broader Allianz IT team for the openness, energy and willingness to contribute to some rich and constructive conversations.

What is one behaviour you think makes the biggest difference to collaboration when pressure and competing priorities are high?
