AI transformation isn't primarily a technology challenge. It's a leadership and change challenge.

In this episode of the "Performance Matters" Podcast, Michael Thiel sits down with Nic Girvan and Dr. Cheryl Jackson to explore why some organizations move forward while others get stuck, and what leaders can do to build trust, resilience, and real momentum during periods of change. 🧠

Organizations are investing heavily in AI. So why is true adoption still falling short?

The biggest barriers often aren't technical. They're human.

When people don't feel safe to experiment, don't see the relevance to their work, or aren't empowered to try new approaches, adoption can become performative rather than transformative.

That's the conversation we're bringing to the table in our upcoming live panel webinar. Join Matt Donovan, Ella Richardson, Nic Girvan, and Cheryl L. Jackson, PhD, as they explore what's really driving AI Theater and how leaders can create the conditions for meaningful AI adoption.

You'll learn:
🧠 Human barriers to AI adoption
⚡ The reality behind AI Theater
🧩 How the BRAVE (Belonging, Relevance, Access, Visibility, and Empowerment) Framework can help drive real behavior change

🌈 Happy Pride Month! 🌈

At GP Strategies, we believe that diversity and inclusion strengthen teams, fuel innovation, and help people do their best work.

Pride is a time to celebrate progress on LGBTQ+ rights, but it's also an opportunity to reflect on the work still ahead to create workplaces where everyone feels seen, valued, respected, and empowered.

Here’s to the power of authenticity, diversity, and allyship. ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

🎙️ The final episode of the Learning Velocity™ Series is here.

Throughout this series, we’ve explored why Learning Velocity™ is becoming a competitive advantage and what it takes to build capability at the speed of change.

For the finale, Michael Thiel, host of our Performance Matters podcast, sits down with Nic Girvan, Senior Director of Leadership & Inclusion, and Dr. Cheryl Jackson, Director of Organizational Design & Change Management, to tackle the part of transformation that organizations often underestimate most: people. ⚡

Because the challenge isn’t usually the technology.

It’s helping people navigate uncertainty, adapt their behaviors, and move forward when the path isn’t fully defined.

From AI adoption and leadership mindsets to resilience, change readiness, and the importance of learning out loud, this conversation explores what it really takes to turn transformation into action. 🧠

Everyone’s talking about AI, skills, and culture right now.

What’s getting more interesting is how quickly the conversation is shifting from theory to ex*****on. ⚡🌐

After two days at iVentiv’s Talent Management Executive Knowledge Exchange in Zurich, one thing became very clear to us: the debate is no longer about whether these priorities matter. It’s about what it actually takes to make them work inside large organizations, where complexity, competing priorities, and the pace of change make ex*****on much harder than strategy.

In this new article, Mike Herbert-Roche, our Director of Learning and Talent Solutions, dives into some of the themes shaping those conversations right now:
📈 The growing pressure to prove ROI from AI
🧩 Why the skills agenda is getting messier in practice
⚙️ The shift from culture as a principle to culture as proof

And maybe most importantly, why ex*****on is becoming the hardest challenge of all.

AI adoption looks strong on paper.

But what if a lot of it is just performance?

Organizations are investing heavily in AI, yet many employees are quietly avoiding it or only using it at the surface level.

The result is adoption that looks good in reports but doesn’t translate into real impact.

That’s the conversation we’re bringing to the table during our next live panel webinar: "From AI Theater to Real Adoption: Why Workers Are Pretending—and How Leaders Can Change It."

Join Matt Donovan, Chief Learning & Innovation Officer; Ella Richardson, Senior Director of Consulting; Nic Girvan, Senior Director of Leadership & Inclusion; and Dr. Cheryl Jackson, Director of Organizational Design and Change Management, as they unpack what’s really driving this gap and why it’s not a skills issue, but a system-level challenge.

You’ll walk away with:
🧠 Insight into the human forces behind “AI theater”
⚡ A clearer view of what’s holding adoption back
🧩 The BRAVE Framework to identify challenges and drive real change
