AI Application: Bottom Up Innovation vs. Top Down Governance with Leah Bray (Founder, TeamFWRD)

AI adoption doesn’t equal AI ROI.

In this week’s episode of the Only Constant, Leah Bray discusses with Nellie Wartoft how a bottom-up, intake-driven approach can democratize adoption but also create tool proliferation, duplicated efforts, and fragmented processes without governance. They unpack what “healthy grassroots innovation” looks like, why transformation offices are key to governance, and how to unlock real enterprise-level ROI from AI.
