This field is for validation purposes and should be left unchanged.

For senior leaders, the AI mandate is inescapable. With intense pressure from execs to deliver, how do you lead your team through the hype cycle and create lasting value?

Frantic races to innovate often create strategies that solve no clear business problem, a confused tech stack, burned-out engineers, and no solid approach to scaling or iteration.  

In this webinar, our DirectorPlus panel will cut through the noise and provide a pragmatic framework for AI adoption. Join us as we discuss proven methods for building an effective AI strategy, identifying high-impact use cases, defining metrics that matter, and managing the long-term lifecycle of AI systems.

Key takeaways:

  • How to build an AI strategy that aligns with business needs.
  • Success metrics that connect AI performance and outcomes
  • A practical approach for managing the full AI lifecycle
