AI Won’t Save Higher Ed, Leadership Will

Higher Ed Pulse

About this episode

Mallory Willsea sits down with Dr. Claire Brady, President of Glass Half-Full Consulting and author of the upcoming book AI with Intention: The Leadership Guide for Higher Education. Together, they unpack how artificial intelligence is quietly but rapidly becoming default infrastructure across college campuses — not through flashy rollouts, but through everyday, often invisible workflows. If you’re tired of AI hype and wondering whether you’re already behind, this episode is your wake-up call. Learn how the institutions that treat AI as a strategic lever — not a pressure valve — will come out ahead in 2026 and beyond.

How Will AI Actually Show Up in Higher Ed in 2026?
