AI adoption isn’t just about training people on ChatGPT or Claude. It’s about culture, mindset, and keeping humans at the center, especially when the world wants to automate everything.
In this episode of Human and the Machine, Cien sits down with Minisha Goel, founder of Mindshift AI, TEDx speaker, and AI trainer who’s helped over 1,000 professionals rethink productivity.
Together, they unpack why most companies are getting AI adoption wrong, why resistance and disengagement are so common, and what it really takes to create an empowered, future-ready team.
You’ll learn:
Why “just training” isn’t enough for real AI transformation
The hidden blockers to adoption (spoiler: it’s not fear of robots)
How to unlock time, reclaim your voice, and lead with heart in an AI-first world
If you’re a leader, builder, or anyone curious about the intersection of people and technology, this episode is for you.
