The Common Experience Season 2 Finale: What Do You Do With a Problem Like AI?

To wrap up Season 2, we’re closing out with a conversation that’s equal parts future-focused, reflective and a little bit playful. In this episode, Graeme and Kedar dive headfirst into one of the biggest questions facing organisations today: What do you do with a problem like AI?

As the duo behind EmpEx Consulting, Graeme and Kedar spend their days helping organisations navigate the intersection of people, culture and technology — and their curiosity for what’s next is unmistakable. This episode brings together their sharp thinking and candid reflections on how AI is reshaping the world of work.

Together, they explore:

• the governance and guardrails organisations need as AI accelerates

• the shifting role of data and what “responsible use” should look like

• the gap between today’s compliance-driven focus and tomorrow’s more ambitious possibilities

• the cultural and organisational shifts leaders can expect as AI becomes embedded in everyday work

It’s a conversation that moves from the pragmatic to the philosophical, touching on the risks, the opportunities and the human realities of an AI-enabled future. And true to form, Graeme and Kedar bring warmth, humour and a sense of grounded optimism to the discussion.

Whether you're a leader, a teammate or simply curious about where AI might take us, this episode offers clarity, perspective and a relatable take on a rapidly changing landscape.
