Tracee Aliotti shared thisWhen I saw the Meta and Alphabet "addiction case" ruling a few weeks back, my first reaction was: finally—accountability. For years, we’ve placed the burden of social media safety almost entirely on parents and users. This feels like a shift toward shared responsibility with the platforms themselves. I’ll admit though — I didn’t always see it that way. Not all that long ago, I believed these platforms were just tools. I'd use a “hammer” analogy: it can build or break, all depends on how you decide to swing it. But parenting in the “screenager” era has changed my perspective. These aren’t neutral tools. They’re systems designed to influence behavior, which changes the game, especially one you don't even know you're playing. Yes, we need better policy and safeguards, but maybe even more important, we need education (for kids and adults alike). Digital citizenship. Media literacy. AI fluency. Because when we understand how these systems work, we make better decisions about how we use them and, in turn, how we equip our kids to use them. I’m hopeful this moment pushes us toward more transparency and real partnership between platforms and people and helps us all better understand what we're actually putting in our kids' hands. After all, there's a reason a Fisher-Price hammer is made of soft rubber. Appreciation for companies like BoodleBox supporting a more informed chapter through AI literacy and responsible human-AI collaboration.Tracee Aliotti shared thisYou've probably heard about this case. The The Lanier Law Firm just won the first social media addiction trial in U.S. history — a landmark verdict against Meta and YouTube for deliberately designing platforms that harmed children. The jury found both companies liable. It's being compared to the tobacco litigation of the 90s. I am so proud to share that our team at BoodleBox was part of this. We worked directly with the Lanier Law Firm, and BoodleBox was used as a collaborative AI tool throughout the trial preparation and litigation process. When one of the most consequential cases in tech history needed AI to help organize, analyze, and collaborate at scale — they chose to work with us. I can't overstate what this means to our team. We built BoodleBox to be the platform where humans and AI work together — transparently, collaboratively, and responsibly. Seeing it used in a case that holds the most powerful tech companies in the world accountable for how they designed their products is something I'll never forget. This is what human-AI collaboration looks like when it matters most. Not replacing the lawyers. Not replacing the judgment. Augmenting the people doing some of the most important work in the country right now. Link to the full story in the comments. Read it — it's worth your time. To the entire Lanier Law Firm team — it was an honor. We're just getting started. #BoodleBox #LanierLawFirm #SocialMediaAddiction #AIinLaw #HumanAICollaboration #LegalTech #Meta #YouTube #AILiteracy #CollaborativeAI #LandmarkCase #ChildSafety #ResponsibleAI #Trial #EdTech

Tracee Aliotti shared thisIt's so rewarding when a student can turn training into real-world results. 📈 I had the good fortune of meeting Nathan Burchiel during a CSM training we took together (shout out to our trainer Eric Tucker!). Learning about how Nathan has applied his new agile skills to lead complex work with such clarity has been a highlight. And exactly why he was such a great fit for our Agile Stories initiative at Scrum Alliance—a project we designed to put a face and narrative behind the impact of agility in real life. In his feature, Nathan shares: “Agile leadership isn't about having all the answers. It’s about building a system that allows the answers to surface through evidence and experimentation.” 🤌 It's been a pleasure to work alongside the brilliant Tess Martin, who's led the work to capture these narratives and bring the "Agile Stories" series to life. Check out Nathan's journey and see how you can apply agile skills yourself! https://lnkd.in/ewW__hPx #Agile #LeadershipGrowth #AgileStories #SuccessStories #BrandStorytellingTracee Aliotti shared thisI’m honored to share that Scrum Alliance recently featured me in an article about how becoming a Certified ScrumMaster helped strengthen my confidence in leading complex work. One of the biggest takeaways from my ScrumMaster journey has been learning how to move from overanalyzing decisions toward a more evidence-based approach to leadership. The certification helped me better structure complex, undefined work, use team data to drive continuous improvement, and create more clarity around how we plan and deliver as a team. It has been especially rewarding to see these changes make a visible impact, not just within my own team, but in broader conversations around process improvement as well. Grateful to Scrum Alliance for the opportunity to share part of my story. https://lnkd.in/ewW__hPxLeading complex work: Nathan’s data-driven Certified ScrumMaster storyLeading complex work: Nathan’s data-driven Certified ScrumMaster story

Tracee Aliotti shared thisOver my career, I’ve been told more than once, “you’re nicer than I expected.” I’ve also been asked why I’m kind to people who aren’t always kind back. But I don’t think of it as “nice.” I think of it as intentional. Because in every interaction, there’s a choice: What do I want to build here? Nice now is really more about what you want next. A stronger relationship? A better outcome? An ally or an enemy? It can feel like giving more than you get, but I promise, the getting won’t pass you by. You don’t control how others show up. But you do control what you put into the world. And over time—that shows up. In trust. In reputation. In leaving people better than you found them (or they found you). I say this to my kids all the time: you get what you give. Not instantly. But inevitably. I think that sounds pretty nice. 😊

Tracee Aliotti shared thisI don’t know who needs to hear this, but here goes — you can change your mind. And, if you have new information that warrants it, don’t wait! No matter how loudly, persisistently, or publicly you’ve shared your opinion, it’s YOURS to change. It can be hard or even feel like a failure, but learning enough to shift your position is wisdom, not weakness. I had a conversation this week that encouraged me to share. Happy learning. Happy changing. Enjoy the view. ⛰️

Tracee Aliotti shared thisIf AI is the house every organization is racing to build, agility is the foundation that ensures it’s built to last. Technology is only as powerful as the teams operating it. You can have the most advanced AI tools in the world, but if your workforce isn’t equipped to adapt, pivot, and collaborate in complex environments, that "house" won't stand the test of time. Scrum Alliance is working with enterprises to build custom workforce capabilities that move beyond "doing" agile to being agile, resulting in teams that don't just survive in change, but thrive because of it.

Tracee Aliotti shared thisEven as a Scrum Alliance team member, being immersed in scrum every day doesn’t mean you stop learning it. I recently (okay — it was December, but I've delayed sharing cause I wanted time to fully sleuth the badge acceptance UX — marketers, IYKYK!) . . . stepped away from the "business" of agility to earn my Certified Scrum Master (CSM), and while I expected to check a box, I walked away with so much more. What didn’t at all surprise me: -- World-class instruction: Eric Tucker is crazy good. He was engaging, insightful, and — dare I say — genuinely entertaining. -- Phenomenal fellow classmates: I was surrounded by a bright, talented, and fun group of professionals. I didn’t just gain colleagues; I gained a cohort of friends I’m genuinely excited to cheer on. You know who you are! -- The practicality: The curriculum isn't just theory; it’s a toolkit. The lessons were immediately applicable to any role, regardless of industry. What did actually surprise me: -- The "Time Warp": I was shocked at how quickly two days flew by. By the time the final minutes wound down, I felt a genuine sense of sadness that it was over. -- Scrum got a glow up: Even when you live and breathe scrum, the shine of it can get murky over time. This course stripped away the noise and polished up the basics I’d let grow dull (without even realizing it). -- Newfound empathy: This was the most profound for me. It forced me to look in the mirror and recognize my own "anti-scrum" habits. It built a new level of empathy for my team and a clearer understanding of how my actions—however well-intentioned—can impact their flow. At Scrum Alliance, we talk constantly about the power of agile skills and awareness. This course personally reminded me why we do what we do. My advice? Go get your CSM. 😉 #ScrumAlliance #AgileLeadership #CSM #ContinuousLearning #ScrumMaster #AgileMarketerI recently earned a new certificate from Scrum Alliance (https://www.scrumalliance.org/).

Tracee Aliotti liked thisTracee Aliotti liked thisA colleague in her late 40s once told me she had started shaving years off her resume. She didn't do this in a vain way. It was more a matter of survival she said. She had watched too many peers get filtered out for being "overqualified" — which everyone in the room knew was code for something else. Experienced professionals may find themselves worried about similar age-related discrimination. But the data is actually promising. Workers 65 and older are the fastest-growing segment of the US labor force. They aren't quietly retiring. They are pivoting, consulting, starting companies, joining boards. Which tells me the problem is not the experience. The problem is the positioning. Share this with someone over 40 who thinks they're 'too old' to change careers.

Tracee Aliotti liked thisThis! #futurework #aiTracee Aliotti liked thisOne thing my leadership team has talked about lately is making sure we don't accidentally drift into "analysis paralysis" with AI. I came across this image again yesterday and honestly I think it captures something very real happening right now in a lot of organizations. Before AI, execution was usually the bottleneck. Lots of people had ideas, fewer people had the resources, technical ability, time, or operational support to actually bring them to life. Now it almost feels inverted. AI dramatically lowers the cost of execution. One person can prototype something in a weekend that used to require a full team, budget approvals, and three months of coordination. Decks get generated faster. Research gets synthesized faster. Code gets written faster. Workflows get automated faster. The barrier between idea and action keeps collapsing. But I also think there's a weird second-order effect happening where the sheer amount of possibility starts overwhelming people. Everyone has ideas now. Everyone sees opportunities now. Every meeting turns into ten more things we could build, automate, redesign, or test. At some point the constraint shifts from execution capacity to clarity and prioritization. And honestly I catch myself feeling this too sometimes. You open Claude or ChatGPT and suddenly the answer to almost everything feels like "technically yes." Yes we could build that. Yes we could automate that. Yes we could redesign that workflow. Yes we could spin up an agent for that. But that doesn't mean every idea is good. I think one of the most underrated skills over the next few years is going to be knowing what not to build. Not because AI isn't powerful, but because it is. The companies that win probably won't be the ones chasing every possible AI initiative. They'll be the ones disciplined enough to focus on the few things that actually matter and execute aggressively against them. #HatchWorks #AI #AILeadership #Innovation #FutureOfWork #AIStrategy

Tracee Aliotti liked thisLast year I was able to attend this incredible conference Lauren Kelley, Ph.D. and her team at University of Delaware puts on! If you are looking for incredible hands on learning with experts from all over the United States highly recommend checking it out this year. Sadly I cant make it this year but should see everyone there next year!Tracee Aliotti liked thisTo the higher ed professional who's been tasked with: → Drafting an AI policy by end of semester → Figuring out enterprise AI adoption with no playbook → Building AI literacy programming from scratch → Supporting faculty who are either terrified or over-excited (sometimes both) → Integrating AI into student services without breaking what already works *You are not alone. And you don't have to figure this out alone.* The AiM Higher Conference is built around these exact five scenarios—not as abstract panels, but as the problems you'll actively work on for three days with peers walking the same road. ✅Day 1: Map your problem. ✅Day 2: Build and refine your proof of concept. ✅Day 3: Present your proof of concept. Walk in with a challenge. Walk out with a draft ready to pilot next week. This is the conference higher ed has been waiting for. Because it's the one we built ourselves. 📍June 9-11 | University of Delaware | Register today: https://lnkd.in/e8Z3wmb3 #AIinHigherEd #HigherEducation #AiMHigher #AIPolicy #AILiteracy #HigherEdLeadership #StudentServices

Tracee Aliotti reacted on thisTracee Aliotti reacted on thisStill trying to process this one. At this year’s Global Scrum Gathering in Vancouver, I received the Volunteer of the Year award from Scrum Alliance. And honestly, it means a lot. Not only because of the work behind the Global and Regional Scrum Gatherings, but because it represents years of trying to contribute to this community in every way I can — creating spaces, supporting people, sharing ideas, helping communities grow, and showing up with care. What makes this especially meaningful to me is that none of it was ever about recognition. It was always about people. About helping others feel welcomed, connected, and represented in this space. As someone from Central America, receiving this recognition also feels bigger than just me. It feels like proof that our communities, voices, and contributions matter too. Deeply grateful to everyone who has been part of this journey. You’ve shaped my life more than you probably know. Still emotional. Still inspired. And definitely not done yet. #GlobalScrumGathering #GSGVAN26 #ScrumAlliance #VolunteerOfTheYear

Tracee Aliotti liked thisTracee Aliotti liked thisUsing AI is easy. Leading the AI transition? That’s the real challenge. A breakout session at our Global Conference in May — 'Leading the AI transition: institutional strategies for human–AI collaboration' — moves beyond tools to something more strategic: how institutions embed AI into the way they actually work. From teaching and learning to operations, it’s about designing for true human–AI partnership — not bolt-on innovation. Expect live demos, practical strategies, and real insight into: - Designing AI-integrated learning experiences - Empowering faculty and student agency - Building shared, scalable approaches across institutions Because the goal isn’t just AI adoption — it’s institutional transformation.
