Shelly Thomas, PE, MBA is the founder of Building Beta and one of the few Copilot strategists who has actually run the operations she now teaches executives to transform.

Her career spans 20+ years across oil and gas, manufacturing, and industrial distribution, managing Fortune 500 relationships at Morton Salt's Industrial Division and directing global eCommerce operations at Chart Industries. She brings that same operational accountability into every training room.

Her programs are built for leaders who are time-starved, skeptical, and responsible for outcomes their boards can measure. The goal isn't to make executives into power users, it's to make them the kind of leader who spreads AI capability across their entire organization. The teams who go through her programs become the most valuable resource in the building. That's what she designs for.

Shelly serves on the UAA College of Engineering Advisory Board, co-chairs Alaska's Women in Engineering Advisory Board, and co-hosts the Breaking Frozen Ground podcast on engineering careers in Alaska. She is based in Alaska, and she operates exactly where you'd expect someone called the Copilot Strategist on the Last Frontier to operate.

David Gregory is a founder, builder, and storyteller working at the intersection of hospitality, tourism, food, business, and experience design.

He is the creator of IC Pasta, a dessert concept built around playful, memorable guest experiences, and the mind behind immersive projects that blend storytelling, hospitality, and real-world interaction. His perspective comes from building businesses, designing experiences, and paying attention to the details most people move past too quickly.

David speaks about what makes experiences feel real, why hospitality loses something when it becomes too polished or too rehearsed, how businesses can build something with a pulse instead of just a pitch, and why context matters more than most people realize. His work is rooted in real operations, guest psychology, storytelling, and the belief that people remember what feels human.

Whether he is talking about food, tourism, service, branding, or experience design, the thread is the same: what makes something worth caring about?

Philippe possède une expérience solide de plus de 10 ans en tant que Coach Agile d’Entreprise et de plus 20 ans en tant que Développeur et Team Leader Agile principalement en salles de marchés. Il a contribué à plusieurs programmes d'agilité à l'échelle. Il sait comment catalyser une véritable agilité grâce à son expérience.

En effet l'agilité souffre actuellement d'un trop grand investissement dans les structures organisationnelles et les pratiques associées. Un rééquilibrage est possible si nous redonnons du pouvoir à l'humain, à notre capacité à ressentir et à surtout créer du sens, et à nous relier en tant que systèmes humains afin de favoriser la collaboration et de faire émerger des solutions innovantes et adaptatives.

Pour cela, Philippe s'est formé au coaching systémique ORSC™ en 2023 (Coaching Systémique pour les Organisations et les Relations). Il a expérimenté cette approche lors de ses missions et plus particulièrement lorsqu'il a travaillé avec des managers et leurs équipes en tant que facilitateur d'équipes. Il est certifié ORSC depuis juillet 2025 après avoir été mentoré et supervisé pendant un an sur ses compétences et ses interventions en tant que coach systémique. Pour compléter son expérience du métier de coach, il s'est formé également à Co-Active (coaching individuel) qu'il pratique régulièrement.

Il s'est également formé pendant des années à l'accompagner d'équipes agiles à tous les niveaux d’une organisation et à faire évoluer leur leadership (individuel et collectif). Il a démontré son approche aussi bien avec des équipes Produit dans le Digital que managériales. En faisant grandir le leadership à différents niveaux d’une organisation, ses clients bénéficient de structures plus performantes alignées avec la culture et la stratégie de l’entreprise.

Philippe est également traducteur du livre d'une des co-fondatrices d'ORSC : "Systems Inspired Leadership" / "Leadership inspiré par les systèmes".
