The $10 billion culture gap: Jevan Lenox, Chief People Officer at WRITER | Humans of AI

Описание: The difference between $10 billion and nothing wasn't the IP. It wasn't market timing. It wasn't even the technology. It was the culture.

Jevan Lenox, Chief People Officer at WRITER, explains why culture is the operating system that runs everything else—and why in the age of AI, cultural dysfunction compounds faster than humans can catch it.

Before WRITER, Jevan led people teams at Insitro (applying AI to drug discovery) and Stitch Fix (where machine learning transformed retail). He's spent years at the intersection of cutting-edge technology and human organizations—and he's learned that the invisible architecture of how people work together determines whether brilliant technology succeeds or fails.

In this episode, you'll discover:
✓ Why AI amplifies both excellence and dysfunction at scale
✓ How to build a culture where people will tell you when AI is about to make a catastrophic mistake
✓ Why distributed strategic thinking is now a survival mechanism
✓ How to navigate the identity shift employees face as AI changes their roles
✓ The shift from outcomes over processes as an adaptation strategy

This conversation positions culture not as HR philosophy, but as competitive infrastructure—and strategic advantage in the AI era.
