Work With Me

Understand what is happening
before everyone else does.

I work with leaders and institutions on how AI, technology, and cultural change are reshaping human identity, work, and belonging. Engagements draw on the Framework and the research of the Emerging Human Lab, and are scoped individually.

01

Leadership Briefing

For executive teams, boards, and institutional leaders

A focused session on what algorithmic systems and AI are doing to attention, judgment, and the people your organization serves.

  • Grounded in the five-step Framework
  • Tailored to your sector and decisions ahead
  • Live conversation with your leadership team

AI Covenant Workshop

For teams adopting AI who want to decide what they will not give away

A facilitated working session using the AI Covenant's four foundations (Formation, Sovereignty, Epistemic Ownership & Responsibility, Dignity) to examine how AI should and should not enter your work.

  • Distinguishes labor as means, performance, and formation
  • Produces a draft covenant for your own organization
  • Suited to institutions, congregations, and universities
