Biography

Anat Baron is a former CEO who scaled Mike's Hard Lemonade into a $200 million category-defining brand in just three years. She brings decades of operator experience across consumer brands, technology, hospitality, and entertainment, now applied to helping leadership teams make high-stakes decisions about AI, automation, and the future of work.

Anat is the creator of The Human + AI Equation, a decision framework that helps organizations determine what work must remain human-led, what can be AI-augmented, and what should be automated as jobs, roles, and workflows are redesigned.

Her perspective is anchored in cross-industry leadership, from her years as a Hollywood producer and executive to her work with global hotel brands such as Four Seasons and Radisson. This is reinforced by her current role as a tech founder at StashWall, where she brings a practitioner’s perspective to how organizations adopt and govern new technologies.

Anat delivers keynotes to leadership teams at Fortune 500 companies and major associations, translating complex consumer and technological shifts into decisions leaders can actually act on. Her background as a producer and documentary filmmaker sharpens her ability to turn operational realities into clear narratives, ensuring ideas do not just resonate in the room but drive follow-through after the event. She also directed the award-winning documentary Beer Wars, which examined the dynamics of competition, innovation, and brand building in a complex global market.

The Human + AI Equation: Decision Leadership in the Age of Automation

Most organizations are stuck in the “Logic Gap.” Leadership knows work is changing but lacks a decision framework to map AI capabilities against human judgment. Anat introduces her proprietary Human + AI Equation to help leaders determine when to use AI, when to stay 100% human, and how to combine both for competitive advantage. Audiences leave knowing how to scale AI without losing leadership control, accountability, or the judgment that drives results.

AI Transformation: Bridging the Middle-Mile from Pilot to ROI

AI pilots are everywhere, but measurable results are rare because ownership breaks down between experimentation and execution. Anat shows leaders how to move AI initiatives from expensive pilots to operational ROI by bridging the “Middle-Mile” gap where technical efforts often stall. Drawing on her experience as a CEO and tech founder, she focuses on ownership, execution, and repeatable systems that turn AI investment into sustainable advantage.

The Future of Work: Keeping Your Best Talent

When automation expands too quickly, organizations face a “Talent Leak.” Judgment erodes, roles flatten, and top performers disengage or leave. Anat reframes the future of work around preserving human authority and expertise while leveraging AI’s scale and speed. Leaders learn how to redesign roles so technology amplifies expert judgment rather than replacing it.

The Next 1000 Days: The Decisions That Will Define 2030

Leaders face “Signal Fatigue.” Too many headlines and too little clarity on what actually matters. Anat focuses on the three-year operating window and the irreversible decisions that will define competitive positioning by 2030. She identifies the critical choices in AI, talent, and operating models that leaders must get right to future-proof their business as the pace of change accelerates.
