A common misconception in enablement right now is that AI is primarily a threat to career growth, something to be managed or resisted rather than used. This panel challenges that framing directly, using it as the backdrop for a bigger question: what actually moves someone from an entry-level enablement role to VP in 2026? This panel maps that career ladder honestly, covering the skills, moves, and decisions that separate people who plateau from those who reach VP, and where AI fluency now factors into that path rather than threatens it. Expect real talk on what to prioritize at each stage, not a generic "go upskill" message. Key takeaways: - The specific skills and moves that separate entry-level enablement professionals from those who reach VP - Where AI fluency now factors into hiring and promotion decisions at each career stage - How to build a personal development plan that accounts for AI without treating it as a threat
