Solution starts with data strategy and culture.

We sit down with the Lionsville founder, Steve Douho, to unpack why AI is triggering not an evolution, but a revolution across IT and operational landscapes. Steve shares how his team restructures organizations around engineering leadership, embraces optimism, and embeds plan-build-run practices to ensure every project reaches production.

He explains why multidimensional data models are becoming the new data strategy, how fragmentation across nearly 900 enterprise applications slows progress, and why modernization must come before advanced AI adoption. Steve also connects these ideas back to Lionsville’s “customer love” DNA, where responsibility, trust, and speed drive every engagement.

For leaders navigating fast-moving digital change, this episode offers a grounded, forward-looking view of how to adopt AI responsibly and reshape the workplace for what’s coming next.
