About Nadine Z.
I help organizations rethink what’s possible. As a transformation leader and innovation strategist, I’ve spent the past decade building programs, leading enterprise pilots, and aligning executive strategy with scalable innovation across sectors. I specialize in AI and data governance, change management, and innovation portfolio execution—with a sharp focus on human-centered design.Currently, I serve as Associate Director of Innovation at DC Water, where I design and implement innovation frameworks that engage employees, measure impact, and drive alignment with long-term strategic goals. I’ve built metrics scorecards, launched AI charters, and facilitated cross-departmental innovation labs. Previously, at Harvard University, I managed an internal incubator that guided scalable ideas from concept through prototype across the entire institution.A frequent speaker and facilitator on the future of work, innovation strategy, and public-sector modernization, I thrive on helping teams and cultures unlock new ways of working that balance purpose, performance, and possibility.Let’s connect if you\'re interested in building cultures of innovation, unlocking team potential, or leading with strategy in an age of transformation.
