Al Adamsen | Speaker Biography

About Al Adamsen

Expert in employee listening and work transformation
Founder of People Analytics & Future of Work
Speaker and podcaster on workforce and culture transformation
Al Adamsen helps individuals and organisations navigate the complexities of an AI-driven work landscape, bridging the gap between data insights and development. With decades of experience, Adamsen has become a trusted guide for those seeking to harness data for growth and resilience in an ever-evolving workplace. Through his research and people-centric approach to analytics, he supports leaders, managers, and professionals in making strategic use of data to prepare for the future of work.

As founder of the People Analytics & Future of Work (PAFOW) community, Al has consistently championed ethical data use to benefit individuals and teams worldwide. His frameworks, including the Talent Assessment & Development (TAD) and Personal Assessment & Development (PAD), outline essential dimensions of talent development, supporting organisations in aligning workforce growth with strategic goals. These models address a core question he explores: how well-prepared are we for a future defined by AI and continuous change?

Al’s career path began in the 1980s as a university internship coordinator, where he discovered his passion for helping others unlock their potential. Over the years, he has held hands-on roles with firms like Ernst & Young, Gap Inc., and IBM’s Kenexa, as well as advising companies like Apple, Cisco, and Whole Foods.

Al is a speaker who delivers insights tailored to each audience, whether C-suite leaders, middle managers, or individual contributors, promoting a mindful, confidence-building approach to the challenges of the future. He believes that AI and analytics should serve people, not overshadow them, and works to make these tools more transparent and actionable. By co-creating solutions and staying attuned to change with a “beginner’s mindset,” Al remains a vital voice in discussions on work, technology, and the human experience in modern organisations.
