HNTB Chief Information Officer Marty Williams talks with BST Global Chief Marketing Officer Eileen M. Canady about AI’s impact on the work we do, the talent we hire and more. 

Reflecting on his career, Marty shares the one lesson that has applied throughout his journey from the US Marine Corps to his current role at HNTB — everything gets done through people. He stresses the importance of relationship building when advocating for the changes these major technological advancements bring. 

Marty goes on to explain that, while AI might be able to handle certain aspects of human jobs, there is still a lot of good work that needs people. He also expects organizations to begin focusing more on data accuracy and the quality of AI-generated outputs. In response, professionals should be prepared to level up their skills, learn to use AI technology and get comfortable with doing things differently.  

As emerging technologies become more prevalent, Marty recognizes that companies also need to level up in various areas. He talks about thinking of data as an asset and then using it to solve your problems. He also warns against training new talent in the old ways and advises being ready to learn from them instead.
