    • Michele Evans, founder and CEO of NxtWaves, says the most common mistake executives make is treating AI adoption as a technology transformation rather than a people transformation.
    • Frontline managers play an outsized role in AI readiness — not by becoming technical experts, but by normalizing experimentation and modeling curiosity alongside their teams.
    • Marketers are building AI fluency through repeated practice, iterative dialogue, and sustained ownership of the creativity, judgment, and expertise that make their work valuable.
