How to Make AI Pay Off Without Betting Your Business on Guesswork
For business owners and leaders. Most businesses are using AI now, and very few are seeing the results. This talk shows why, and what the businesses getting results do differently.
Learning objectives
- See why most AI spending isn’t paying off yet
- Learn to start with the result, not the tool
- Map what else has to change for a change to work
- Learn how to test a change small before committing more
- Work through one change in their own business, live
- Leave with a one-page checklist they can use the next day
