to Activation

Thursday, July 23rd, 2026 | 1 PM EST | 1 SHRM CE Credit
We hear a lot about AI in benefits being "inevitable."What we don't hear enough about: what it actually costs to get there. The failed pilots. The internal politics. The data problems nobody puts on a slide.

On July 23rd, we're skipping the theory. Join Brendan Sheehan (Nayya), Jeff Wald (Founder, Boomerang), and Paul Yater (CIO & Head of HR, 84 Lumber) for an honest conversation about what AI adoption in benefits and HR actually looks like — not the polished version.
