Today’s episode is hosted by Tony Monk and they are joined on the podcast by Callum Drabble, Programme Manager at The University of Salford, Michael O’Callaghan, Project and Programme Manager at Holloway Projects and Vanya Sharma, Group Head of Design and Transformation at Belron.

The conversation explores ai trust within organisations and how confidence in emerging technology can be built across diverse workforces. The exchange highlights the human side of artificial intelligence, focusing on communication, education and leadership as key enablers of successful adoption.

Across the discussion, broader themes such as workforce transformation, ethical technology and organisational readiness are examined. The dialogue considers how trust, transparency and inclusion influence long-term outcomes, particularly as automation and data-driven systems become more embedded in everyday operations. Ai trust returns later as a cultural challenge as much as a technical one, offering valuable perspective for leaders navigating digital change, innovation strategy and responsible AI implementation.
