Empathy Is a Feature, Not a Feeling: Not Human, But Human-Centered
When I was little, I used to name everything. My stuffed animals, my bike, even the toaster. I gave them personalities, voices, feelings. My mom would chuckle and say, “Estás haciendo novelas con los objetos, mija.” (You’re making soap operas with objects, sweetie.)
Turns out, I wasn’t alone. An...

AI Won’t Work If Your People Don’t
A few weeks ago, I sat in a room with leaders from some of the world’s most powerful companies. Billions are being poured into AI transformation. But when the conversation turned real, the numbers surprised me. Less than half their workforce was using the new tools.
In those moments, the room we...

Is It Still Hard Work If AI Helped You?
This past week at the ALPFA Convention, surrounded by more than 5,000 Latino professionals and allies, I had the privilege of connecting with peers in some incredible, thought-provoking conversations about AI and what it really means for our work, identity, and leadership.
We weren’t talking abo...

What You Don’t Know IS Hurting You
Success Isn’t a Bigger Dream. It's a Wider Lens.
I grew up in a small town in West Texas where success had a very specific look. You became a doctor, a lawyer, or an engineer. Most often, you worked in the oil fields. That was the blueprint. Those were the wealthiest people we knew, so naturally...

“I know I should be using AI…”
The other day, I got a message from a close friend and former colleague, someone I deeply respect and had the joy of working with for years.

The Rise of the AI Co-Worker… Why It’s Time to Rethink Teamwork
Last week, I caught myself doing something I hadn't done in a while. I found myself wishing I was back in the corporate world with a team to delegate to as I spent hours deep in the weeds of a project. I was knee-deep in drafting a strategy document, caught up in the details, when it hit me.

The AI Adoption Gap...Don’t Let Fear Hold You Back
“Y si me ven usando AI, ¿qué van a pensar?” 😱 ("If they see me using AI, what will they think?”)
That’s what a colleague told me recently when I asked if she was using AI tools like ChatGPT at work. She hesitated, not because she doubted AI’s capabilities but because she worried about how it wou...
