Kinetic Change is run by Erika Lenz and Fayoké Longe. We're seasoned business consultants who build with AI together every day — for our business, for client work, and for fun.
Erika has spent fifteen years helping organizations navigate big technology changes — as an agile coach, product leader, and transformation consultant at companies from startups to Fortune 100s. The thing she learned is that the barrier to adopting new technology is almost never the technology. It's whether people feel safe enough to explore and trusted enough to make the work their own. She has led agentic AI programs at scale, co-founded WhisperQuake (a healthcare AI company), and runs Denver's Human-Centric AI meetup.
Fayoké comes to AI from twenty years in design and strategy — work that requires translating other people's thinking into something concrete enough to ship. She's built brands, campaigns, and digital infrastructure for organizations ranging from small businesses to Fortune 500s, which means she's seen what actually changes when a team adopts a new way of working and what doesn't. She's taught and built curriculum for the Denver Public Library and continues to write on design futures.
