CEO at Human Score
Karen Zeigler is the CEO of The Human Score, a human-centered framework that helps leaders understand how work design, organizational structure, culture, fairness, and decision-making shape employee experience and business performance. Her work sits at the intersection of business strategy, leadership, organizational design, and the future of work. Karen helps organizations move beyond surface-level change by identifying the real conditions that drive trust, performance, innovation, and resilience. She is especially known for her perspective on AI implementation: that AI does not fail on capability, it fails on execution when leaders layer it on top of broken workflows, low trust, unclear decisions, and disconnected employee experiences. She is also the lead creator of Workplace Renaissance, a human-centered approach to AI implementation that helps leaders redesign work to elevate people rather than sideline them. The program focuses on co-creation, responsible implementation, leadership alignment, and the creation of the organizational conditions needed for AI to deliver real value. Workplace Renaissance was delivered at the 2026 AI Week, reflecting the growing relevance of her voice in the conversation around AI and the future of work. Human Score is recognized by the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) to offer Professional Development Credits (PDCs) for SHRM-CP® and SHRM-SCP® recertification activities. Through Human Score, Karen Zeigler and the consulting team deliver practical learning experiences that help HR and business leaders apply human-centered leadership to strengthen culture, improve performance, and drive measurable results. Karen has also contributed to multiple books through forewords and featured sections; most notably, she contributed a section to George Anderson’s Design Thinking for Tech: Solving Problems and Realizing Value in 24 Hours, where she shared her perspective on human-centered design as a leadership practice and its role in shaping more adaptive, human-centered organizations. She is a strong source for commentary on AI implementation, workplace culture, leadership, employee experience, organizational change, and the future of work. Specifically, where human impact and business performance intersect.
