Are you feeling overwhelmed by the relentless noise around Artificial Intelligence?

Is your board pushing for an AI strategy?

Are consultants selling fear while employees worry about job losses?

This is Part 1 of a powerful two-part series that breaks through the confusion—and reveals why most AI and digital initiatives fail before they even begin.
