AI, Agility, & the Death of Business as Usual

· host Innovative Leadership Institute

Guest: Greg Moran, Ford’s Former Chief Strategy Officer The time to “wait and see” is over. Thanks to AI, no matter what your industry, you need to act now. On everything.   That’s the core message from guest Greg Moran as he surveys a behind-the-scenes revolution AI has already spawned: fast, cheap development of new ideas. New technologies drastically reduce the time and cost to develop and deploy apps, products, and services. It means leaders must now be more agile, adaptable, and willing to experiment to maintain competitiveness. Here's what Greg and Maureen cover: Why holding on to expensive legacy systems is holding you back; Why standing still and waiting for the dust to settle are now lethal strategies; and How your frontline staff are more willing and ready to change than your executive suite. Binge listen to more wisdom from Greg: - Three Steps for Successful Negotiation - The 7 Leadership Mindsets You Need Right Now - How Missing Ethics Makes a Mess of Organizations For daily wisdom from our guests, be sure to follow us on LinkedIn.   RESOURCES:   You can contact Greg for more information at https://www.linkedin.com/in/gsmoran/ .   Our host Maureen Metcalf posts a newsletter every week on LinkedIn.
