The organizations that will win aren't the ones that adopt AI fastest. They're the ones that know what to keep human.
Building Future-Ready Organizations
LaFawn Davis operates at the intersection of human strategy and AI — and she's been doing it before it had a name. She designs the operating models that allow both people and intelligent systems to perform at their best, helping organizations modernize how they work, lead, and scale.
As the former Chief People & Sustainability Officer at Indeed, she brings an operator's lens to workforce modernization, responsible AI adoption, and organizational design. She is the call before the call — the strategic advisor organizations bring in when the stakes are high, and the path forward isn't clear.
