Beverly Flores, Architect of Human Infrastructure & AI Strategy

Beverly Flores is the Founder and CEO of Thyme Out Consulting LLC, where she empowers leaders to move from "comfortable chaos" into high-velocity, purpose-driven success. With a career rooted in over two decades of Fortune 100 strategic leadership, Beverly spent 24 years at John Deere, where she was instrumental in transforming the manufacturing giant into an industry-recognized technology leader. From serving as a North American spokesperson at CES to orchestrating the launch of inaugural electric vehicle technology, she has spent her career at the intersection of "Steel" and the "Digital Frontier".

Today, Beverly is a leading international voice in the AI conversation, focusing on the variable most organizations miss: the Human Infrastructure. While others focus on the software, Beverly focuses on the "Human Hesitation" recognizing that it is people that scale, not systems. Through her signature EEI System™ (Energy, Enthusiasm, and Intensity), she helps high-achieving professionals and mission-driven leaders architect AI strategies that reclaim capacity, ignite innovation, and restore the human connection to work. Based in Overland Park, Kansas, Beverly balances her professional brilliance with a passion for international travel, English rugby, and her three amazing boys—all while living by her trademark phrase: "Onwards and Upwards".
