I help leadership teams and nontechnical organizations turn AI from scattered experimentation into practical ways of working. Through hands-on training, workflow improvement, clear guardrails, and ongoing support, teams build confidence and find where AI genuinely helps.

Begin with the tasks, workflows, and decisions people already own. The right use case matters more than the newest tool.
Shared understanding, hands-on practice, and leadership support drive adoption more than access alone.
Clear boundaries make it easier to test, learn, and use judgment without waiting for perfect certainty.
Use AI to improve quality, reduce friction, and create room for work that needs people, not simply to go faster.
Everyone understands what the tools can do, where they fall short, and how they apply to their work.
People can explain what AI is good for in their role — and use it without guessing.
Find repeatable tasks and workflows where AI can genuinely save time, improve quality, or remove unnecessary friction.
A short list of improved workflows with visible, measurable change.
Give people clear expectations, leadership support, safe ways to practice, and a reason to keep using what works.
Sustained, governed use across the organization — not a spike and a fade.
TRAINING + ADVISORY
Kinship
Ongoing AI enablement and advisory in a Google Workspace and Gemini environment, including leadership guidance and all-staff and department working sessions. The work centers on role-based use cases, workflow improvement, reporting and process experimentation, and adoption support.
STAFF + OPERATOR EDUCATION
Illinois Restaurant Association
Staff enablement and training in a ChatGPT Business environment, with workshops built around practical use cases. The work also covers adoption roadmap and ROI thinking, alongside operator-facing education.
AI LITERACY
Chicago Public Library
Community workshops and systemwide webinars for nontechnical audiences with different levels of comfort. Sessions separate real uses from hype and cover prompting, risks, safeguards, and how to make informed decisions about AI.
LEADERSHIP TRAINING
Marriott Chicago Magnificent Mile
An executive working session and broader leadership training focused on Microsoft Copilot and Copilot Chat. Leaders explored role-based use cases, recurring workflows, responsible experimentation, and practical next steps for their departments.
Learn how work really moves, where people are getting stuck, and what success should look like.
Prioritize the best opportunities, then test them with real workflows and real material.
Reinforce what works through clear guardrails, leadership support, measurement, and iteration.
From leadership teams to community workshops, the goal is the same: help people understand the tools, practice with relevant examples, and leave ready to use what they learned.
I’m Matt Quinn, founder of Chicago-based Be Kind AI Advisors. My background is in enterprise communications, public affairs, and change management. At McDonald’s, I supported global communications and participated in the Generative AI Center of Excellence; earlier, I worked with the Illinois Restaurant Association.
Today I help teams put AI to practical use through hands-on training, leadership education, workflow improvement, responsible-use guidance, and ongoing adoption support.
The name comes from my grandmother, Marge Quinn, whose send-off was always “be kind.” It’s a reminder to explain things clearly, respect people’s concerns, and build change with them rather than at them.
A short conversation is usually enough to tell whether there's a good fit and where you'd start.
