I create.
I rise.
I win.

Not because AI replaces my thinking — but because I stay the origin of it.

AI is my collaborator.
I’m still the one who sees the patterns, names the signal, and shapes the story before it ever becomes a prompt.

Creation starts with identity.
Technology just helps me carry it farther.

✨ Generator energy.
✨ Resonance over persuasion.
✨ Patterns over noise.

I’m happy to share that I’ve obtained a new badge: Strategic Leadership with AI in Portfolio and Program Management from the ‪@iilglobalinc‬

"This webinar deepened my perspective on how AI can augment human decision-making. I’m curious—how are others in the PM space balancing automation with team empathy?"

AI Governance from Day One—here’s why it protects your team 🤖

You’re building AI into your workflows, and that’s exciting. Your systems can now make decisions in seconds that used to take days.

But here’s what I’m hearing from teams everywhere:
The challenge is organizational, not technical:
→ AI operates at machine speed
→ Teams still coordinate at a human pace
→ When those worlds collide, your people feel the pressure

What this looks like in practice:
✅The automation runs beautifully. Then something needs approval, and your team realizes no one designed the escalation path.
✅People end up doing invisible coordination work. They become the safety net for automated decisions they didn’t control.

Your teams deserve better from the start. 💙

This is why AI Guardrails and Governance matter from day one, not as barriers, but as protection.

When you build clear ownership and accountability into your systems early, you’re setting your people up to thrive, not just survive.

New article on designing AI governance that actually works + frameworks you can implement right away. Read more here aliciammorgan.com/enterprise-planning-ai-with-guar…

What’s your organization’s biggest win OR challenge with AI governance so far? I’d love to hear your experience.

🤖 Published a new guide: How to Build an AI Agent in Microsoft Foundry

If you’ve been curious about creating your own AI agents, Microsoft Foundry makes it surprisingly accessible. I walk through the complete process from start to finish, no complex coding required.

What you’ll learn:
→ Setting up your development environment in Foundry
→ Designing conversation flows and agent capabilities
→ Integrating with Azure AI services
→ Testing and deploying your agent

Microsoft Foundry brings together all Azure AI tools in one place, making it much easier to prototype and ship AI agents without jumping between platforms.

Whether you’re building a customer service bot, a productivity assistant, or something unique—this guide has you covered.

Read the full tutorial on my blog aliciammorgan.com/how-to-build-an-ai-agent-in-micr…

Have you built any AI agents yet? Drop a comment and let me know what you’re working on!

🎉 Earned my Microsoft Foundry FastTrack badge!

Completed the 30-day challenge in 4 days (Jan 6-10). This is Step 7 of my 9-step journey: Traditional PM → AI-Fluent Leader.

**What I Built:**
Prototyped a workplace AI agent using Microsoft Foundry + SharePoint policies. Learned model selection, instruction design, token economics, and responsible AI practices.

**What’s Next:**
Building my agent by Feb 6 using my Cross-Industry PM Playbook (aerospace, education, enterprise, nonprofit patterns). Part of my Innovation-in-Action GitHub ecosystem.

**Why It Matters:**
My 15+ years cross-industry experience maps directly to the new PMP exam (July 1, 2026): AI concepts, scenario-based questions, cross-domain judgment.

Agents don’t replace bridge-builders—they amplify our ability to close gaps faster with humans in the loop.

🤖 Agents act (with oversight)
⚙️ Automation streamlines
💡 Augmentation empowers

**Standing in the Middle of the Forest** 🌲✨

Last month I visited Boreal: An Indoor Forest at the Frisco Discovery Center. White birch groves, soundscapes of wind and bird calls, winter light filtering through.

It was an immersive experience that put me in a completely different state. 🌿

There’s something about standing in the middle of a forest that makes you slow down. The sounds. The stillness. The way it invites you to just *be* rather than do.

I’ve been doing artist dates for a while now, but this year I’m pushing myself differently.

Exploring immersive experiences beyond traditional art. Familiarizing myself with AI agents and agentic workflows. Building fluency with tools that are reshaping how we create and work. 💡

It’s like stepping into a forest of new knowledge. You can’t understand it by looking at pictures. You have to step in, feel a little disoriented, and stand in the middle of it until it makes sense. 🧭

What forests are you stepping into this year?

📍 Boreal: An Indoor Forest at Frisco Discovery Center (through Jan 21st, FREE!)
