  #21 Why AI adoption really stalls: Dr. Elena Alikhachkina on the human side of AI

  Aug 3, 202629 minS1

  Everyone's racing to deploy AI. Far fewer are asking whether their people trust it enough to act on it. In this episode of Trust Us, host Taylor Becht and co-host Jocelyn Biltgen sit down with Elena Alikhachkina — a four-time Global Chief Data Officer, board director, and published author with 25+ years leading data and AI initiatives across Fortune 500 companies. Elena makes a direct case: people, not technology, are the real constraint on AI adoption. She breaks down the difference between trusting each other and trusting data, why "digital trust" can be measured rather than just felt, and how a problem-first approach she ran at Johnson & Johnson changed what leaders thought they needed. Along the way: what a genuine learning organization looks like, and why knowledge only moves where trust already exists. A practical listen for data and business leaders who want their AI investments to actually stick.

  #20 People, Process, Tech: Mario Hightower on Why Integration Projects Really Fail

  Jul 13, 202618 min

  Integrations are the connective tissue of the modern enterprise. When they work, no one notices. When they don't, everything falls apart. In this episode of Trust Us, hosts Jocelyn Biltgen and Taylor Becht sit down with Mario Hightower, Principal Architect at Infoverity, who brings 20 years of experience in enterprise data and integration strategy — and a hard-won, practitioner's view of why these projects go sideways. Mario clears up the common misconceptions (no, integration isn't just APIs, and no, real-time isn't always better), explains why most failures are data and process problems disguised as technology issues, and walks through the first decisions that actually determine whether a design scales: source of truth, ownership, coupling, and integration pattern. He also covers what overly complex design looks like in practice, why versioning should be treated like a production release, and where AI will — and won't — change the work. His closing point sets the tone for the whole conversation: a great integration architect isn't connecting systems, they're enabling the business to move faster, change safely, and scale confidently. A practical listen for architects, project managers, and any leader wondering why their systems still don't talk to each other.
