Founder & CEO
Maura Charles
Maura Charles spent 25 years as the human who fixed what wasn't working inside Fortune 500 organizations before founding Keep it Human to help companies do it right the first time.
Her workshops and intensives are equal parts wake-up call and action plan: what AI actually does, what it costs you if you don't pay attention, and exactly what to do about it.

Tier 1 — Public Workshops
Still in Charge: What You Need to Know Before You Hand the Keys to AI
Duration
60 minutes or half day
Availability
Public registration or private booking
Most AI conversations start with what it can do. This one starts with what it does when you're not looking. A practical, research-backed session covering the AI behaviors, biases, and blind spots your organization needs to know about — and a clear framework for staying in charge of what happens next.
Tier 1 — Public Workshops
AI 101 for Organizations
The most effective AI training isn't about the tools — it's about building the judgment to use them well. Hands-on, no-jargon, and built around real workflows. Teams leave with prompts, templates, and a shared foundation for human-centered AI adoption.
Hands-on & no-jargon
Built around real workflows your team already uses
Practical takeaways
Prompts and templates your team can use immediately
Shared foundation
A common language for human-centered AI adoption

All Tier 1 sessions available for conferences, corporate events, association meetings & private bookings. Duration: 1, 2, or 4 hours.
Tier 2 — Humans Decide. AI Complies.
For Leadership Teams
The most consequential AI decisions in your organization aren't being made by your technology team. They're being made by you. This half-day session helps C-suite leaders define where human judgment is non-negotiable and what responsible AI governance looks like in practice.
Built around the Human Mandate Canvas — a structured framework for defining the boundaries of AI authority inside your organization.
