What Psychology Teaches Us About AI Adoption with AJ Nydick

AJ Nydick, Head of AI Transformation at AI Digital, joins the podcast to unpack why successful AI adoption is ultimately a people challenge. Drawing on I/O psychology, AJ explores what separates teams that truly transform with AI from those that simply use it to save a few minutes. She breaks down the role of psychological safety, hands-on training, leadership, and identity threat—and explains why measuring AI success requires looking beyond logins to how deeply people are actually changing the way they work.
