AI + Us: The New Partnership 
Reshaping Leadership, Work and Human Connection

AI is not just changing how work gets done. It’s changing how people make decisions, build trust, share expertise, learn new skills, and understand their own value at work.

For all of us in the workplace, the real challenge is not simply introducing new tools. It’s helping people stay engaged, confident, and ready to act while the work around them continues to shift.

In this keynote, attendees will learn how to build trust, reduce hesitation, encourage experimentation, and create the environment for people to contribute and adapt while work continues to change.

They’ll also discover why psychological safety alone is not enough. Sociological safety explores the unwritten and unspoken infrastructure of belonging and engagement. It creates stronger connection and the conditions for people to do their best work.

This is not a keynote about becoming an AI expert. It’s about becoming the kind of leader and teams people trust when the work, the tools, and the future keeps changing.

Key Themes

  • The Human Side of AI Adoption
    How AI affects confidence, trust, status, identity, and value at work.
  • Unlocking Sociological Safety
    The unwritten and unspoken infrastructure of performance and belonging.
  • Leading Through Uncertainty Without Creating Panic
    How leaders can use clear, practical language to open better conversations about AI without overpromising or creating false certainty.
  • The New Insider/Outsider Dynamics
    How leaders can preventt the confidence gap between those moving ahead with AI and those feeling left behind.
  • Building Trust and Psychological Safety
    How leaders can create the conditions for experimentation, learning, responsible use, and honest conversation.
  • Moving From Hesitation to Action
    How teams can take small, practical steps through clear expectations, shared learning, and room to experiment.

Participants will leave inspired and  with practical ways to:

  • Recognize and respond to the human impact of AI adoption
  • Talk about AI in a way that reduces fear and builds confidence
  • Spot trust issues before they become barriers
  • Encourage experimentation without creating chaos
  • Help teams move from hesitation to meaningful action

Ignite Transformative Change: Helping People Adapt and Take Action

Navigating disruptive change, getting people engaged in new ideas, and helping them thrive at the same time can feel overwhelming.  We may think we’re future-ready because of our expertise and experience.

But no one feels completely ready for change that could make their job harder, increase their workload, or disrupt what already works. And increasingly, that is the reality of work.

Drawing on a global perspective and decades of experience working with leaders and teams navigating complex change, Gregg helps audiences understand what gets in the way of change, what moves people forward, and how to create the conditions to adapt and perform.

  • Understand how brain science influences our response to change and how to use that insight to adapt quickly
  • Apply a simple technique to get unstuck and keep moving when change feels difficult
  • Shift into a discovery mindset that opens up new possibilities and supports strategic, solution-focused thinking
  • Strengthen the mindset and behaviours needed to maintain performance through change
Change. What is it good for? Create Positive Change in Your Work and the Community

We all experience change, whether positive or negative, no matter the industry we work in, our job title, our skills or our accomplishments. When positive change happens, we are ready to accept it with open arms, but what happens when we face negative change? That’s when we have to decide to step into a negative environment and use our capabilities and skills to create the positive. 

Are you “change-ready?” 

Like you, Gregg has wondered at the magic of change, and has devoted his life's work to what change really means and how people can harness it instead of resent it. Drawing on real-life experiences, testimonials, and solid takeaways that he has learned over the years, Gregg guides audiences through interactive and thought-provoking change initiatives that will leave you inspired. 

Break out of status quo change management thinking and discover people-centric approaches that work!

Attendees will:

  • Acquire the critical mindset and skills needed to accelerate multiple organizational changes
  • Identify unique ways to accomplish more and be innovative when under pressure
  • Embrace the principles of brain science and how to use them to your advantage 
  • Discover a simple technique to help stay driven in organizational life and get ‘unstuck’ during change
  • Unleash a powerful process to get out of problem-based mindset and move into solution-focused thinking to create positive change.
  • Identify strategies to help team members maintain their productivity during times of change.
