In this episode of the HR Leaders Podcast, we sit down with Jenni Kovach, Chief People Officer, and Adam Luck, CISM CISSP, Senior Director at IGS Energy, to explore how HR and IT can co-create AI strategies that drive real employee value.

1. Why AI strategy must be human-first, not tech-first
2. How to build psychological safety during AI rollouts
3. Why optional adoption builds stronger engagement
4. The importance of cross-functional AI steering committees
