How CEOs Should Be Thinking About Transformation with Richard Steward
In this episode of GCC Tech Talks, Tom Stroud and Sye Rahman sit down with Richard Steward — a transformation leader with 35+ years advising CEOs on large-scale digital and AI-led change.
Most digital and AI transformations don’t fail because of the tech — they fail because of unclear leadership, slow decisions, and misaligned priorities.
We cover:
• Business-first thinking (technology second)• Clarity and decision speed as momentum builders• Why people and data matter more than tools• When to stop, pivot, or kill a transformation programme• What leaders should know about AI, agentic systems, and data foundations• Why “failed” projects are often just expensive feedback
If you’re navigating AI, data, or digital transformation in the GCC, this episode is about cutting through the hype and focusing on what creates real value.
