Making The Grade

The Human Advantage - Laura Moniz de Aragão on why AI will make enterprise sales more human

Episode Summary

Unmind CRO, Laura Moniz de Aragão, on why AI is making the human side of enterprise selling more valuable, not less - from spotting AI slop to the test she uses to measure real executive trust.

Episode Notes

Laura Moniz de Aragão has spent her career in long, complex enterprise sales - the seven- and eight-figure deals that take 12 to 24 months and live or die on trust with a handful of executives. So when the conversation turns to AI making sellers redundant, she pushes back hard: in her world, she argues, AI is about to make the human seller more valuable, not less.

Buyers were never asking for more sales activity. What they want is scarce: real judgement, real insight, real trust. And that's exactly what AI can't manufacture. 

In this episode, Laura unpacks what AI slop actually looks like, why she thinks most AI-assisted selling is optimising for the wrong thing entirely and where AI can actually make sellers more impactful.
