The Agentic Exec
In a world where AI and automation dominate every boardroom conversation, AI & Automation: The Route to Unlocking EBIT and Cash cuts through the noise and gets straight to what matters, turning technology into measurable financial value.
Hosted by The Agentic Exec, the AI & Automation Acceleration Partner for enterprise, this series brings CEOs, CFOs, COOs, and CTOs into the same room to answer one question: how do you actually make more money with AI?
Each episode dives deep into the realities of digital transformation, from automating finance and optimising working capital, to re-engineering operations for human + agent collaboration. You’ll hear from C-suite leaders, investors, and innovators who are already using AI to drive EBITDA, accelerate cashflow, and future-proof their operating models.
This isn’t hype. It’s the new enterprise playbook, how to move from pilot projects and PowerPoints to profit, resilience, and scalability.
If you’re leading growth, investment, or transformation, this podcast gives you the frameworks, stories, and strategies to turn AI into a line item on your P&L.
The Agentic Exec
Episode 1 - Mark Humphries - My Digital Twin Neville
The Agentic Exec is the boardroom-level podcast for leaders who know AI isn’t just another tech wave — it’s a full-blown operating-model reset. Each episode brings you inside the minds of CEOs, Chairs, private-equity operators, and transformation leaders who are using AI to drive EBITDA growth, accelerate value creation, and reinvent how their organisations work.
In this episode, we sit down with Mark Humphreys — Chair, ex-CEO, ex-investment banker — to explore how enterprise boards are really thinking about AI. From PE-backed pressure to scale faster, to the rise of AI twins, agentic workflows, and new organisational structures, Mark dives deep into:
- AI maturity across sectors and why private equity is forcing boards to move faster
- How CEOs should design AI-first value creation plans
- Why the future enterprise will be built on augmented humans + agentic AI
- The commercial functions where AI drives real top-line revenue, not vanity efficiencies
- The emerging governance risks around cybersecurity, IP leakage, and shadow AI
- Why the Chief People Officer — not the CTO — may become the real owner of AI adoption
Whether you lead a FTSE 250, a PE-backed portfolio company, or a high-growth enterprise, The Agentic Exec gives you practical frameworks, leadership insight, and the unfiltered truth about how AI is reshaping modern business.
If you’re an enterprise executive serious about AI strategy, organisational design, productivity, agentic automation, enterprise value, or board-level transformation—this is your new unfair advantage.
