Here's a stat that might make you spit out your coffee: 80% of AI projects launched last year failed to deliver on their promises. Yikes!

In this conversation that's refreshingly no nonsense, Nellie chats with Shankar Kalyana, CTO at Stantec, about why so many change leaders are struggling with AI implementation and what the successful 20% are doing differently.

Shankar cuts through the AI hype with practical wisdom from someone who's actually made this stuff work. He shares why your team might be resistant to that shiny new Copilot license (and what to do about it), which parts of Microsoft Copilot actually deliver value versus where it falls flat (Excel, we're looking at you), and why sometimes the best approach is to "chatbot the heck out of it" and learn as you go.
