Spring Quarterly at Happy Camper, Chicago: an afternoon that felt exactly like what it was meant to be. A moment to reconnect, reflect, and move forward together.

From thoughtful conversation during the quarterly to an easy, energetic evening downtown, it was a reminder that progress isn’t just built in the work. It’s built in the space we create around it.

The work matters.
The people make it possible.

Another quarter grounded in both.

We had the pleasure of hosting a Networking Speaker Series event for Big Shoulders Fund, sitting down with President and CEO Joshua Hale and Carol Lavin Bernick, businesswoman and philanthropist, both who’ve turned business discipline into real-world impact. From boardrooms to classrooms, this one reframes what leadership looks like when it actually matters.

Episode 11 of AhHa Moments drops Monday.

This week, our Chicago team took a little time to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with good people, good energy, and a little Lucky Leprechaun punch along the way.

A nice pause in the middle of it all.

Now, back to the work—with momentum, a bit of luck, and plenty we’re building ourselves. 🍀

At Inspire11, leading change isn’t reserved for a title or a moment. It shows up in the relationships we invest in, the systems we challenge, and the futures we build together.

This , we’re honoring the 2026 theme “Leading the Change: Women Shaping a Sustainable Future” by spotlighting women across our markets who are shaping that future every day.

You’ll hear from Elevens throughout the week as they share what leading change really looks like. First up: Diana Kilmovich. Swipe to read her take.

Last week, our Chicago office gathered for our annual Chili Cook-Off. It’s a long-standing tradition and a favorite for good reason.

Taryn Watkins, Jason Harris, and Mandeep Singh stepped up with recipes that delivered depth, heat, and just enough edge to keep things interesting. The afternoon brought warm bowls, thoughtful debate, a spirited Hot Sauce Challenge, and plenty of friendly competition.

Congratulations to Taryn Watkins on taking the win, and to everyone who made it a moment worth savoring.

Most AI transformations stall at proof-of-concept.

Not because the technology failed.
Because the economics weren’t designed to compound.

The enterprises that scale? They treat each phase like fuel for the next one.

Most teams know the 30/90/12 pattern.
The unlock is knowing where you are in it.

Look at your last deployment. If it was 60%+ custom work, you’ve found your scale gap. That one diagnostic tells you whether you’re building patterns or just more pilots.


The Blueprint shows the exact economics behind each phase. Learn more at the link in our bio.

Across the enterprise, leaders are navigating a common reality: AI is accelerating expectations faster than the systems used to make decisions, manage risk, and prove value.

That pressure isn’t new. What’s changed is how leading organizations are responding.

They are aligning teams around movement, proving progress early, learning quickly, and building confidence to scale AI responsibly.

These pressures are not confined to one role or function. They surface in funding conversations, data discussions, roadmap reviews, and boardrooms alike. They are shared patterns, and they are shaping how advantage is created today.

The Enterprise Transformation Blueprint for the AI Era captures how organizations operationalize this kind of movement and make it repeatable.

From Chicago to Atlanta, Minneapolis, and beyond, our teams recently came together to pause, reflect, and celebrate.

The night honored what we’ve built, the impact we’ve delivered, and the momentum already carrying us into 2026. It was a moment to raise a glass to shared wins and to the bold thinking, deep collaboration, and belief in what’s possible when the right people are in the room.

When boards start asking sharper questions about AI, it’s rarely because ambition is lacking.

More often, it’s pressure to show returns on early bets and a hard look at what needs to change before AI can scale.

The enterprises that thrive are those that learn, refactor, and redeploy faster than the world around them.

Our Enterprise Transformation Blueprint for the AI Era reflects this shift. It reframes readiness as adaptability and shows how intelligence becomes part of how the business runs.
