Almost 1 in 3 employees are sabotaging AI inside their company.
And the worst part?
Leaders think they’re “implementing strategy”…
when they’re actually creating resistance.
Everyone is talking about AI.
No one is talking about what it’s doing to people.
In this episode of The AI Edge Podcast, I sit down with Greg Zlevor, President of Westwood International and Founder of HopeMakers, to break down what’s actually happening inside organizations right now.
This isn’t a technical conversation.
This is about leadership, human behavior, and why most AI initiatives are quietly failing.
We cover:
• Why employees are resisting and even sabotaging AI
• The biggest mistake leaders are making right now
• Why AI is amplifying dysfunction, not fixing it
• The dangerous illusion of “AI strategy”
• How to actually integrate AI without breaking your team
• Why human connection is becoming MORE valuable, not less
If you're a founder, operator, or executive trying to implement AI…
You need to hear this.
Because if you get this wrong, AI won’t scale your business…
It will expose everything that’s broken inside it.
