Navigating AI Transformation: The Why, What, and How

This session will share key insights from leading our company's AI initiatives, focusing on four core pillars: Enablement, Empowerment, Enhancement, Envisioning. Drawing from practical experience, the presentation will outline strategies for integrating AI to streamline operations, enhance product functionality, and prepare for industry shifts. A central framework of this approach is the iceberg model from systems theory. This model emphasizes the unseen drivers—such as underlying processes and attitudes—that are crucial for impactful AI integration. We'll explore how this model informs each of the four pillars, creating a comprehensive approach to AI transformation. Join us to learn how to not just adopt AI, but to create a culture and infrastructure that maximizes its potential in your organization.
