• Nufar Gaspar on Building AI Champions and Agent Readiness at Scale
    Jan 23 2026

    AI adoption is failing in most organizations - not because of the technology, but because culture, governance, and people enablement often gets ignored.

    In this episode, I'm joined by Nufar Gaspar - enterprise AI consultant, former AI leader at Intel where she built a 12,000-member AI champions community, and head of research at Superintelligent - who reveals the exact playbook for building AI capability at scale and preparing for agentic workflows.

    In this conversation, we explore:

    • Why AI ROI comes from improved decision-making and new capabilities, not just efficiency gains
    • The CHANGE framework for leading AI transformation without stifling innovation or creating chaos
    • How to structure AI champions and builders across your organization (and why this matters for agent readiness)
    • The governance sweet spot between being too permissive (creating chaos) and too restrictive (stifling innovation)
