195. Jeff Roberts. IT And AI For Mid Market Companies.

AI is creating a new kind of pressure inside mid market companies. The urgency to move fast is real, but so is the risk of getting it wrong. Without the right leadership in place, many organizations are stuck between experimentation and execution, unsure how to scale AI responsibly while still capturing its value. That is exactly where today’s conversation lives. How do you bridge that gap between ambition and capability without hiring a full time executive too early or too late? Jeff Roberts is right in the middle of this problem. As Founder and CEO of Innovation Vista and a five time CIO, he has spent years stepping into companies at critical moments, helping them align IT strategy with business outcomes and avoid the traps that cause most AI initiatives to fail. He brings a front row view into what actually works when companies try to move from interest in AI to real impact.
