AI, 2026: What’s Working, What’s Broken, What’s Quietly Transformative | Panel

After the initial rush to deploy AI tools, organizations are confronting the harder realities of integration: workflow disruption, inconsistent outputs, governance challenges, and uneven adoption across teams. While some pilots are proving their value, many leaders are discovering critical gaps in data readiness, change management, and operational alignment. The future of AI is less about experimentation and more about determining what genuinely moves the needle on cost, productivity, quality, and employee experience. Leaders now face a pivotal moment: refine, operationalize, or recalibrate. This Session Will Examine: • Translating early AI pilots into sustained operational value. • Strengthening data quality, governance, and workflow integration. • Managing adoption barriers and workforce expectations. • Identifying high-impact use cases that can be sustained. • Balancing innovation with risk management and trust.
