Can AI improve your company’s strategy?

A question that is more and more prescient in the modern world. In this episode I am joined by Graham Kenny, a prolific author, consultant and professor in all things strategy. In recent years he has also been experimenting with how far AI can help organisations design and implement winning strategies.

Graham discusses the transformative role of AI in strategy formulation and execution. He emphasises the importance of stakeholder perspectives in defining strategy and shares an excitement for AI in being a fundamental part of this.

We also explore how AI can enhance the execution strategy, specifically by developing sharper KPIs and using digital twins. AI is a tool that can help you win against the competition, are you using it to its full potential?

You’ll hear about:

  • How AI can significantly improve strategic thinking and execution
  • How understanding stakeholders is crucial for effective strategy
  • How AI serves as a powerful tool for analysis in strategic planning
  • Digital twins simulating organisational changes before implementation
