PMI Presentation: From Rejection to Results

In this keynote for the Olympia chapter of PMI, I shared the behind-the-scenes story of a company-wide AI adoption effort that started with skepticism—and zero support. What followed was a journey of persistence, strategy, and creative leadership that ultimately transformed how teams worked and collaborated.

This talk highlights how even grassroots efforts can drive real change, and how the right mix of storytelling, advocacy, and experimentation can turn resistance into results.
