ACMP DC has partnered with Baker Tilly for a hands-on evening that will change how you think about AI — and your role in making it succeed.
AI initiatives don't fail because the technology doesn't work. They fail because the people, trust, skills, and systems around that technology weren't ready for it.
As change practitioners, we've always known this. This workshop is your opportunity to make sure the rest of the room knows it too.
Join fellow OCM professionals for an energizing evening of expert-led sessions, facilitated breakouts, and real peer exchange — all focused on how to position change management as the strategic driver it needs to be, from the very first AI conversation.
What You'll Walk Away With
- A clear understanding of the five dimensions of AI readiness — and how to use them to influence strategy
- The language to "speak AI" across technical, leadership, and business audiences
- Practical tools to make the human side visible — and non-negotiable — in any AI initiative
- Insights from Baker Tilly practitioners, plus real-time peer exchange in facilitated breakouts
