This week, we chat with the brilliant Rosie Djurovic, AI Strategist and Head of AI at a top UK law firm, about what it really means to lead with AI today.

Rosie has such a refreshing take on the human side of tech. She talks about building AI literacy across teams, creating solid governance from day one, and making sure AI actually aligns with what the business needs — not just chasing shiny tools.

We also dive into how small businesses can get started with AI, why community matters in such a fast-moving field, and how sometimes, being a misfit is exactly what makes you stand out.

✨ A few gems from our chat:
• “Head of AI” isn’t just a title, it’s a signal that AI is serious business.
• Start with what you’ve got. The best AI ideas often come from existing processes.
• Governance = trust. Get it right early.
• Learning about AI should be fun, flexible, and for everyone.
• Stay curious, stay connected, the AI world moves fast!
• Leading in AI means leading with empathy.
• And yes, being different can be your biggest strength.

A huge thank you to Rosie for joining us and sharing her wisdom, warmth, and perspective on what it means to lead with both innovation and humanity. 💫
