Hospital marketers are getting hit from every angle with AI advice: “Fix search because of AI,” “personalize everything,” “automate content,” “rebuild creative,” “use agents,” “change the operating model.” It creates an impossible feeling: everything matters, so nothing gets real traction.

This session reframes the problem. The biggest constraint on AI progress is rarely the technology. It is change management. And change management collapses under scattered priorities.

Attendees will learn a practical way to replace random acts of AI with a clear, organization-fit direction. We will show how the “right” AI move depends on two realities most AI guidance ignores: (1) your organization’s natural orientation under uncertainty (what it optimizes for and what risk it is managing) and (2) your current fluency (how ready you are to use AI safely, consistently, and effectively). You will leave with a simple method to align stakeholders, sequence work, and create focus so adoption actually sticks.

After this session, participants will be able to:

• Explain why AI progress is primarily a change-management challenge in hospital marketing and identify the common failure mode of “everything, all at once” prioritization.

• Diagnose their organization’s default AI orientation (what it tends to prioritize and protect) and understand why two health systems can make opposite AI decisions and both be right.

• Assess their team’s AI fluency and translate it into a focused 90-day plan, including what to do now, what to postpone, and what guardrails are required for adoption.
