Author: The Agile Brand October 21, 2025 Duration: 21:21

Is your organization truly AI-powered, or are you just slapping a little GenAI onto existing processes?

Agility requires embracing experimentation and empowering teams to rapidly iterate, especially when integrating transformative technologies like AI. It also demands a culture that views failure as a learning opportunity, not a setback.

Today, we're going to talk about how to build a culture of AI innovation from the bottom up, empowering every employee to leverage its power.  To help me discuss this topic, I'd like to welcome Michael Domanic, Head of AI at UserTesting.
