In this episode of the Brandon Hall Group™ Excellence at Work podcast, host Michael Rochelle, Chief Strategy Officer at Brandon Hall Group™, sits down with David Bator, Managing Director of Achievers Workforce Institute, for a conversation that is equal parts research reveal and strategic provocation. David brings a clear-eyed lens to one of the most pressing challenges in talent today: why AI transformation keeps stalling, and what organizations are consistently getting wrong. The answer, he argues, is not the technology. It is the people. And the system best positioned to fix that is one most leaders still treat as a cultural afterthought. This conversation covers the state of employee readiness for AI, what the research says about behavior change at scale, and why frequent recognition may be the most underleveraged transformation tool in the HR stack.
