Michelle Kamrath Fields

Founder & CEO, AI Mentors | AI Strategy Advisor | Keynote Speaker

AI strategy that regulated industries can actually trust.

I help healthcare, legal, finance, and insurance leaders adopt AI with clarity instead of chaos. Twenty years of enterprise marketing leadership at Nike, John Deere, Eddie Bauer, and Napster taught me how real organizations actually change. Wharton AI credentials and a WBENC-certified, women-owned consulting firm back up the strategy.

Who I AM

I'm Michelle Kamrath Fields. I'm the Co-Founder and CEO of AI Mentors, a Minnesota-based, government-certified Women-Owned Small Business. My firm helps enterprises in regulated industries build AI strategy, governance, and implementation plans that hold up to scrutiny, not just hype.

​

Before AI, I spent over 20 years leading marketing and digital transformation for national brands. That background matters here. AI adoption fails for the same reasons any transformation fails: unclear strategy, no executive alignment, and no plan for the people who have to use it every day. I bring structure to that chaos.

​

I hold Wharton AI credentials. I'm a board member and founding member of MN Women in AI. And I built AI Mentors specifically for industries where "move fast and break things" isn't an option: healthcare, legal, finance, and insurance.

How I Help Organizations

AI Strategy & Governance

I help executive teams figure out where AI creates real value, what problems it should actually solve, and how to govern it responsibly. For regulated industries, governance isn't a nice-to-have. It's the difference between adoption and exposure. I build strategy and governance frameworks side by side, so you're never choosing between moving forward and staying compliant.

​

AI Implementation & Technical Roadmapping

Strategy without execution is just a slide deck. I work with your team on AI agent design, technical implementation, and rollout plans that match your organization's actual capacity to absorb change. No tool-first thinking. No shelfware.

​

Executive AI Leadership & Implementation Program

This is my signature offering: a certification path built for leadership teams, not just individual contributors. It runs in three tiers, Foundations, Leader, and Champion, so your organization builds AI fluency at every level, from the boardroom down. Teams leave with a shared language, a validated skill set, and a credential that proves it.

​

Digital Transformation Consulting

AI is rarely the whole story. Most organizations I work with also need help modernizing workflows, redesigning processes, and aligning teams around a new way of operating. I guide that broader transformation using the same operational discipline I built over two decades in enterprise marketing.

​

Keynote Speaking & Executive Education

I speak to leadership teams, boards, and industry conferences about AI strategy, responsible adoption, and leading change with confidence instead of fear. My talks are built to replace hype with a working plan your team can act on Monday morning.

WHY REGULATED INDUSTRIES WORK WITH ME

 

  • Deep sector experience. I work specifically with healthcare, legal, finance, insurance, and enterprise B2B leadership teams who can't afford to get AI adoption wrong.

  • Governance-first approach. Every strategy I build accounts for compliance, risk, and oversight from day one, not as an afterthought.

  • A track record outside AI, too. Two decades leading transformation at Nike, John Deere, Eddie Bauer, and Napster means I know how large organizations actually change, not just how AI tools work.

  • Certified and credentialed. WBENC-certified Women-Owned Small Business. Wharton AI credentials. Board member, MN Women in AI.

  • A partner, not just a vendor. My clients come back for the next phase of the work because the first phase actually held up.

Keynote Speaking on AI Strategy & Implementation

IMG_20250404_151631 (2).heic

I speak to executive audiences, industry groups, and conferences about AI strategy, AI implementation, and digital transformation—with a focus on what leaders actually need to know to make informed decisions.

My speaking topics include:

  • AI strategy for executives and boards

  • Implementing AI without operational chaos

  • AI-powered digital transformation

  • Preparing organizations for AI-driven change

  • Aligning AI initiatives with business goals

  • Leading teams through AI adoption with confidence

These sessions are designed to replace hype with clarity. Audiences leave with a shared language, a realistic understanding of AI’s role in their organization, and a stronger foundation for decision-making.

 

AI Strategy Built Around the Business

Every successful AI initiative starts with strategy. I work with organizations to define where AI creates real value, what problems it should solve, and how it supports long-term goals. This includes identifying high-impact opportunities, prioritizing initiatives, and building a roadmap that leaders can stand behind.

Rather than focusing on tools, my work centers on:

  • Business alignment

  • Organizational readiness

  • Workflow modernization

  • Decision-making improvement

  • Sustainable transformation

AI becomes an enabler of smarter operations.

Practical AI Implementation & Organizational Readiness

AI implementation fails when organizations move faster than their people or processes can support. I help leadership teams prepare for adoption by ensuring clarity, alignment, and readiness across the organization.

This includes:

  • Designing AI implementation roadmaps

  • Identifying operational friction and inefficiencies

  • Supporting responsible, scalable AI adoption

  • Ensuring teams understand how AI fits into their work

  • Reducing resistance through education and leadership alignment

The goal is AI confidence.

Digital Transformation With a Human-Centered Lens

True digital transformation is not about technology alone. It’s about how people work, how decisions are made, and how organizations adapt to change. My background as a marketing and transformation executive allows me to guide organizations through AI adoption with a deep understanding of real-world business dynamics.

I help organizations:

  • Rethink workflows and processes

  • Improve efficiency and collaboration

  • Reduce operational drag

  • Strengthen decision-making systems

  • Build transformation capability that lasts

AI accelerates transformation, but people make it successful.
