Ways To Work Together

Most businesses have already paid for AI. Far fewer have people using it. The licences get approved, three or four people go hard, and everyone else quietly carries on the old way. That gap is what I work on, and the assessment is where it starts.

AI Adoption Program

Fixed price four to eight weeks

The work itself. Setting the tools up to fit how your team actually operates, bringing people with you, training, handling the ones who would rather not, and leaving something in place that tells you in three months whether it stuck.

  • Stakeholder and impact mapping
  • Communications and training
  • Tool set-up and integration
  • Adoption measured, not assumed

Contract Change Management

Day rate on request

Contract change management on AI, ERP, HRIS, finance and safety programs. Prosci-certified, twenty years in, and used to picking up a program that is already moving. Short engagements or as part of a wider program team.

  • Whole-of-organisation change strategy
  • Go-live and hypercare support
  • Training design and delivery
  • Remote or on site

Claude Masterclasses

Also part of the work

System Implementation Change

Structured change management for ERP, HRIS, finance and safety system rollouts. Everything from whole-of-organisation change strategy to go-live support, training and adoption measurement.

Workforce Transition & HR

Restructures, workforce transition and the everyday change that comes with growth. Handled with both the people risk and the program detail in view, including IR, performance and policy realities.

Custom AI Assistants

Your team asks the same questions for months after a new system goes in. I build an assistant that answers them from your own guides, and says so when it does not know, so nobody acts on a confident wrong answer.

About

Anna Smith

I'm a Prosci-certified Change Manager and HR practitioner with over twenty years navigating the human side of transformation: restructures, workforce transition, system implementations and the everyday change that comes with growth.

My career has moved between two complementary worlds: hands-on HR leadership (NEC Australia, The Personnel Group, Mantra Hospitality) and structured organisational change consulting, delivering programs for local councils, health, IT, education and private sector clients.

That mix matters. When a workforce transition or system implementation lands, I've usually sat on both sides of the table: as the HR Business Partner managing the people impact, and as the Change Manager structuring the program. It means I plan for the messy realities, not just the theoretical stakeholder map.

I also speak regularly at industry forums on change, adoption and workforce readiness.
