AI with a Soul: How to be Human-Led and AI-Supported to drive Business Growth

As the World’s 1st Chief AI Officer for Enterprise,  LinkedIn’s 2026 Top Voice of the Year, and a Sr. Fellow @ Harvard with 9 patents, Sol is a former AWS and Fortune 100 C-Suite exec who helped IBM launch Watson in 2011.  Having led over 200+ deployments, Sol brings rare execution experience and thought leadership to organizations and their workforces through the safe use of AI.

While many are focused on productivity & efficiency, Sol is emphasizing the need to measure effectiveness in order to amplify your workforce and your business. While most approach AI as a technology shift, Sol’s success has been rooted in 4 core principles 1) Knowing that AI is a people and operating model shift not just a technical shift 2) You have to envision the ‘Art of the Possible’ while still being rooted in the ‘Art of the Practical’ for the maturity of your organization 3) Making sure you outsource tasks to AI and not your critical thinking 4) AI requires combining your IQ, EQ, BQ, and SQ to scale.

Sol’s mission is to ensure AI operates as both a Business & Workforce Amplifier – because she believes AI needs to happen with us and not to us!
