Summary
What happens when a CEO hands unlimited AI access to every employee, and adoption still stalls? In this episode of The WorkOps Podcast, host Jeet Mukerji sits down with Kimberly Nerpouni, Global VP of People & International Operations at Pearl, the parent company of JustAnswer. Kimberly shares why AI transformation is a human enablement problem rather than a technology problem, how her People Ops team built Pearl's AI accelerator and a 1 to 10 adoption scale with no bad scores, and her three levels of work framework for deciding what AI should absorb first. She also explains the feedback facilitator agent her team is building, the hard line she draws (AI never gives feedback, it helps managers facilitate it), and why PIPs don't exist at Pearl. This conversation is for people leaders, HR teams, and anyone navigating AI adoption inside their organization.

Takeaways
-AI adoption is a human enablement problem, not a technology problem, and people ops is uniquely positioned to lead it.
-Move AI into level one work first, the tasks that don't require your expertise, so your team can focus on level two and level three work.
-Build, buy, or borrow: piloting with AI startups can reveal exactly what's worth building bespoke in-house.
-AI should facilitate feedback conversations by scanning context and prompting managers, but it should never give the feedback itself.
-Front-load clarity with job descriptions, career ladders, and employee-owned development plans so PIPs are never needed.
