About this event

AI is no longer a futuristic concept—it’s a present-day force transforming how we work, make decisions, and grow businesses. From automating tasks to unlocking new creative potential, AI offers massive opportunity. But with over 160,000 public GPTs and 35,000+ AI tools available, it’s easy to get lost in the noise. For many professionals, the challenge isn’t whether to use AI—it’s figuring out how to use it effectively, and what’s actually worth your time and resources. The real competitive edge lies in cutting through the chaos, identifying tools that drive outcomes, and building systems that align with your goals—not distract from them.

That’s exactly what you’ll learn with Jenny Moshea, the founder of Kinetiq Shift and a trusted advisor to executives navigating digital transformation. Jenny previously served as Head of Technology at Sellen Construction, where she helped drive innovation in one of the most complex and risk-averse industries. Her career has centered on translating buzzword-heavy technologies into meaningful, measurable impact—and now she’s bringing that perspective to startups and businesses eager to make AI work for them, not at them.

This conversation will go beyond the basics and into the real questions leaders are asking:

  • How do you confidently choose the right AI tools for your business without wasting time or money?
  • How can AI support—not replace—your team, workflows, and customer experience?
  • What does effective AI adoption look like across sales, marketing, product, and operations?
  • How do you lead cultural and mindset shifts that empower your teams to embrace change?

Whether you're an early-stage founder trying to scale smart, a product leader tasked with increasing efficiency, or a solo professional looking to gain an edge, this session will deliver insights you can apply immediately. Jenny will share frameworks, use cases, and cautionary tales to help you make smarter decisions in a rapidly evolving landscape.

AI is here to stay. The question is—how will you use it to transform your work?

🎯 What You’ll Learn

  • How to cut through the noise of AI tools and identify what actually drives value
  • Frameworks for integrating AI without disrupting your team or processes
