A Class Act: Conversations in Data and Leadership
Season 2: Navigating the AI Landscape
I’ve been in this market for nearly 20 years and in that time, I’ve helped place over 4,000 senior leaders in data, analytics, and AI roles around the world from the dot com boom to big data.
What I’ve learned is this: technology isn’t the hard part. Leadership and implementation is.
That’s why we’re back with Season 2 of A Class Act, and this time, we’re calling it Navigating the AI Landscape - because right now, it really does feel like uncharted territory.
In this season, you’ll hear real stories from founders, engineers and executives who are actually in it, the ones leading AI change inside their organisations today.
We’ll talk about:
- What’s really working (and what’s not).
- How leaders are embedding AI into their businesses right now.
- And the skills and mindset you’ll need to lead and hire effectively in this new landscape.
If you’re sitting in the boardroom wondering what you should be doing about AI, this season is for you.
