About Shivani Smith

I help organizations move from AI experimentation to enterprise-wide adoption.As part of Accenture’s CIO Journey & Change Management (J & CM) Center of Excellence, I lead AI-driven transformation initiatives that enable our nearly 800K employees to adopt and activate emerging technologies — from advanced data & analytics platforms to Generative and Agentic AI.My work sits at the intersection of technology, workforce transformation, and behavior change. I design and activate change strategies that go beyond awareness — building future-ready skills, shifting mindsets, and embedding AI into the way work gets done. I focus not just on deploying tools, but on preparing leaders and teams to operate in an AI-augmented enterprise.My recent work includes- Leading enterprise change activation strategies for Generative AI and Agentic AI- Designing AI enablement journeys that drive measurable adoption and business readiness- Advising leaders on AI workforce transformation and future skills development- Creating scalable learning, communication, and engagement strategies for global audiences- Measuring AI sentiment, adoption maturity, and behavioral change across the enterprisePreviously, I spent 8 years in Accenture’s Talent & Organization Strategy and Consulting practice, where I led large-scale digital and workforce transformations for State & Local government agencies. I directed change, implementation, and training efforts across 40 California counties, impacting users and leading a cross-functional team of 30+ FTEs.Across both internal and client-facing roles, my focus has remained consistent: translating complex technology transformation into human-centered activation strategies that drive real behavior change.I am particularly passionate about:• Moving organizations from Generative to Agentic AI• Activating leaders to lead AI-enabled workforces• Designing measurable AI adoption strategies• Future skills and workforce readiness• Embedding AI into culture, not just systems
