# Yuri Kruman

> Yuri Kruman helps mid-career leaders get paid for their AI skills. He is a 3x CHRO and CLO, an executive coach since 2016 (2,300+ leaders) and a Fractional Chief AI Officer with 11 custom AI builds shipped. Brand line: "Command your premium." The named problem: the AI Wage Gap (AI skills earn a 62% premium over comparable roles per PwC's 2026 Global AI Jobs Barometer, while 55% of companies in Payscale's 2026 survey offered no premium, bonus or equity for them).
