People should help shape the future of their work.
The Human Agency & Work Reinvention Initiative brings organizations and leaders together to test a more reciprocal model for AI transformation—one that supports people through change and gives them a meaningful role in redesigning work.
AI transformation is also a human transformation.
When AI changes roles, workflows, and decision rights, it raises questions that technology deployment and skills training alone cannot answer: Where does human judgment create value? What makes contribution meaningful? How do people grow when the work itself is changing?
The initiative explores whether organizations can generate better answers by treating employees not only as recipients of change, but as participants in shaping it.
Develop people.
Redesign work.
Learn together.
An expert-guided, AI-enabled system connecting individual development with organizational change.
Private developmental support
Personalized support helps people make sense of change, strengthen judgment, and navigate evolving roles with greater agency.
Meaningful participation
Employees contribute lived experience, critical expertise, and ideas to the redesign of roles, workflows, and human–AI collaboration.
System-level learning
Organizations learn what enables or constrains adoption, then turn those insights into better conditions, practices, and pathways.
Evidence for a more human and more effective approach to AI adoption.
Design partners will help co-develop the model, test it in context, and examine outcomes at both the human and organizational levels.
Human agency
Do people feel more able to navigate change, make choices, and shape how they contribute?
Judgment
Are employees better equipped to exercise discernment where human accountability still matters?
Responsible adoption
Does meaningful participation lead to more trusted, thoughtful, and sustained use of AI?
Organizational performance
Can better work design improve collaboration, execution, and the value realized from transformation?
Critical expertise
Can organizations retain the tacit knowledge and human capabilities that technology alone cannot replace?
Pathways to grow
Can redesigned roles create viable ways for people to contribute, learn, and develop over time?
The aim is not to prove a predetermined answer, but to learn what works, for whom, and under what conditions.
Developmental support only works when people can trust the boundary.
Privacy is not a feature added later. It is part of the model being designed and tested.
- 01
Individual developmental conversations remain private.
- 02
Organizational learning is separated from personal coaching content.
- 03
Data use is transparent, purpose-limited, and agreed in advance.
- 04
Insights support better systems and work design—not employee surveillance.
Help build a better way to reinvent work.
We are bringing together organizations ready to experiment and leaders ready to contribute across sectors.
