Erin Boyd is a senior executive, economist, and speaker focused on helping organizations turn digital ambition into measurable business value. She currently serves as Chief Digital Strategy and AI Officer at AES, where she has played a central role in the company’s enterprise digital and AI transformation, with a particular emphasis on ROI, adoption, and economic accountability.
At AES, Erin works at the intersection of strategy, economics, and execution—partnering closely with business, technology, and finance leaders to ensure digital initiatives are grounded in clear objectives, real trade-offs, and continuous value tracking. Her work has helped shift digital from a collection of pilots and platforms into a portfolio of decisions designed to compound value over time.
Beyond her role at AES, Erin is an active voice on decision-making, economics, and the practical application of AI in complex organizations. She is the author of Decision Poetry, which reframes economics as a human, accessible discipline focused on better choices rather than abstract theory. She is also a TEDx speaker, where she explores how clarity around objectives and trade-offs shapes better outcomes in both business and everyday life.
Erin holds a PhD in economics and regularly advises leaders, boards, and cross-sector organizations on how to navigate digital transformation with rigor, realism, and purpose.
