Date/Time: Wednesday, February 11th @ 12pm ET
As AI becomes part of every workflow, employees won’t just use one tool — they’ll work alongside a growing “AI team” of copilots, assistants, and agents. That shift changes how people learn, how managers lead, and what L&D is responsible for.
In this session, Ethena’s Chief People Officer, Melanie Naranjo, and Sana’s Senior Engagement Manager, Rita Azevedo, will explore what L&D looks like when AI can do more of the drafting and building — and humans need stronger judgment, context, and decision-making.Â
We’ll dig into the practical questions HR, People, and L&D leaders are asking right now:
- What skills matter most as AI takes on more of the “doing”?
- How do you teach responsible AI use without slowing teams down?
- Where does L&D create value when content is easier to generate?
- What’s one low-risk experiment you can run this quarter to get AI-ready?
Attendees will leave with concrete ideas, real examples, and at least one experiment they can start in the next 90 days.
Speaker(s):
- Melanie Naranjo (CPO, Ethena)
- Rita Azevedo (Senior Engagement Manager, Sana)
