Meet Your Speakers
Roel leads Solutions Consulting at Fuel50, where he spends most of his time in the room with enterprise talent organizations — designing skills ontologies, scoping talent marketplace deployments, and pressure-testing what AI-assisted mobility delivers against a real workforce, not a slide. Over six years at Fuel50, he has shaped how the company approaches skills and task intelligence. Before Fuel50, he founded and exited Savantis Solutions and held earlier roles at Ascendify.
His focus is where AI-driven work redesign breaks: the point where automation stops creating capacity and starts eroding the judgment, trust, and accountability that make work reliable. That distinction is what he advises enterprise talent leaders on before they commit to a redesign, not after.
In his session, "Task Intelligence: Designing Work for Human Potential," Roel will show how to separate what AI should own from what's strategically human, and use that split to guide reskilling and career decisions instead of just headcount decisions. Roel will also lead the live "Q&A and Fuel50 in Action" segments at the end of each session and show you how these Fuel50 brings these frameworks to life in a scalable and easy to implement way.
Ashley Levesque is VP of Marketing at Fuel50 and a leading voice on workforce transformation. Each quarter, she gathers insights from more than 250 HR leaders on the issues shaping the future of work – from workforce agility and internal mobility to succession planning. Through the roundtables and symposia she leads, she engages directly with dozens of senior practitioners who share what is, and isn’t, working in their organizations – and how they are addressing these challenges with Fuel50.
This perspective is grounded in recurring patterns across hundreds of conversations – not a single case study or isolated success story. Ashley has seen the same challenges surface across industries and organizations: succession plans that do not translate into action, limited visibility into skills and talent, and workforce strategies that struggle to keep pace with changing business needs.
In her two sessions, “Succession at All Altitudes” and “Workforce Agility, Built to Move,” Ashley shares what's holding organizations back from building more effective succession and mobility strategies. She'll share a practical, IO psychology informed framework developed through years of research, customer dialogue, and a deep understanding of the organizational conditions required to turn talent strategy into measurable workforce agility.
Workforce Agility: Built to Move
Every role you can't fill from inside is a role you're paying six months and a recruiter to fill from outside. This session covers how to connect movement to business outcomes, build the conditions that make mobility work in practice, and create pathways where talent flows toward the work that matters.
Executives get the case for mobility as a way to cut external hiring and retain critical talent. Practitioners get the actual conditions that make movement work — visible pathways, transferable skills, and leaders who develop and export talent instead of hoarding it.
You leave with a case for mobility your CFO will actually accept — not another HR initiative competing for budget.
