Drawing from decades in architecture and enterprise AI, she explains why successful adoption always starts with people.Michelle spent more than 30 years in commercial real estate and the AEC industry before stepping into the world of enterprise AI. Through her work leading AI adoption at AnswerRocket, she saw a pattern repeat itself: companies invest heavily in technology, but fail to prepare teams to actually use it. As a result, even powerful tools often fall short of their potential.Michelle shares practical insights for architecture firm owners who want to embrace AI with confidence. She explains how small firms can improve workflows, create stronger internal processes, and foster innovation without feeling overwhelmed. She shows how thoughtful adoption can help firms stay competitive as the future of practice continues to evolve.This week at EntreArchitect Podcast, Building an AI Ready Architecture Firm with Michelle Hamilton.
