Student interviews underway · Presenting this fall

Put human flourishing at the center of the age of AI.

Team Human is a multi-generational, cross-sector group. We bring the generations into one room, tell the stories that emerge, and turn those stories into the evidence a flourishing future needs. Clear about the challenges. Organized around hope.

4 Generations
3 Focus Areas
92 Recorded Moments
A convener and a storyteller.
Most public conversation about AI sits at the extremes of hype or doom. We hold the honest middle: clear about what is hard, organized around what a good future looks like.

Vision over fear, every generation in the room.

We convene diverse generations and sectors in rooms built for conversation, 40 to 60 people at a time, charrette style, in person and online. The room runs on catalyst energy, not lecture. What comes out are multigenerational stories: how a student, a mid-career worker, and someone twenty years further along are each experiencing AI, not just one generation's version of it.

We are a broad tent of people who care: technologists, journalists, educators, and creatives across four generations. Each generation shapes the agenda. No one hands down a script, and no one defers just because they have been around longer. The goal: a future where AI advances equity and agency instead of eroding them.

Learning

Lifelong learning and the creation of new knowledge, not just school.

Future of Work

A bridge connecting students, educators, and a human-centric, AI-ready workforce.

Community

The connective tissue between people, efforts, and local economies.

Student journalism, and rooms built for conversation.
Our flagship program puts students at the byline. Our convenings keep every generation at the table.

Team Human Student Interviews

Our first cohort is at work. Students are paired with local employers, conducting recorded interviews about AI and the future of work, and contributing to a presentation at a conference this fall. Want in on the next cohort or know a student who should be? Reach out.

Convenings

Monthly to bi-monthly seminars and quarterly in-person gatherings. Charrette-style rooms of 40 to 60 people, built to surface the voice of everyone in them and to confront the real challenges of a future centered on human flourishing.

See What a Convening Looks Like
Story first. Then the problem. Then the proof.
Policies and behavior do not shift until the story does. But narrative alone does not hold up under scrutiny. So we run a sequence.
1

Tell the Stories

Rooms of diverse generations and sectors produce multigenerational stories about how AI is actually being experienced. New knowledge created together, not handed down by whoever has been there the longest.

2

Name the Problems

Those stories surface the problems worth solving, seen through a lens of human flourishing. A multigenerational story is harder to dismiss, and it is built to travel: publishing, cross-posting, other people's platforms.

3

Measure What Matters

Once we know the problems, we know what to measure. We pair the patterns our stories surface with research and frameworks that already exist, then pilot what we learn where the problems actually show up.

A story surfaces a problem, the problem gets tested, and what works becomes visible action. Then it starts again. That is how a convening becomes a movement: not by declaring it, but by running the cycle until it holds.
