• One accountable operator, not a pyramid. You work with the person who has done this before – not a partner who sells it and juniors who learn on your budget.
• Adoption is the core craft. Everyone can demo the AI. Almost no one makes sure it's governed and that your people actually change how they work. That gap is the entire business.
• Vendor-neutral. No software to sell, no implementation quotas. The recommendation is what's right for you.
The Big 4 will sell you a 40-slide strategy and staff the hardest part – execution – with 26-year-olds. I do the opposite: one senior operator, personally accountable.
I’ve spent 10+ years leading organizational change inside Fortune 10, government, and higher education environments where getting it wrong wasn’t an option. Now I apply that craft to the hardest half of AI: governance and adoption.
