Podcast: Marina Morgan — Takes on Talent: Why AI Readiness Is a People Problem
In this episode of "Takes on Talent," we sit down with Marina Morgan, Founder and Principal Strategist of AIQ, a framework designed to measure how ready an organization is to adopt AI — not from a technology standpoint, but from a human and organizational one. Marina brings more than 15 years of transformation work across technology, media, and telecommunications, having sat with executive leadership teams at the organizational side of AI: decision-making, execution, adoption, and change at scale. She built a training system that onboarded more than 10,000 employees for a national telecom, designed a business game for a retail chain that lifted sales by 40%, and started her first company at 19. She is also an Anthropic partner and a Y Combinator alumna. We explore the neuroscience of entrepreneurial decision-making, why human adaptive skills — not infrastructure or budget — are the primary bottleneck to enterprise AI adoption, and what it actually takes to get AI to work inside a company full of humans.
