Manage episode 510914072 series 3656088
The Problem ("The 95% Trap"): It highlights the brutal finding from recent analyses that 95% of AI projects flop not from technical glitches, but from fuzzy goals, or that 95% failed to meaningfully boost revenue.
• The Solution ("Mindset Shift"): The entire episode focuses on the necessary mindset shift, moving away from chasing "shiny demos" toward strategic leadership.
• The Outcome ("Tie AI Projects Directly to P&L"): Success relies on defining "crystal-clear outcomes that tie straight to your bottom line" and locking in metrics first, effectively turning hype into revenue. Successful projects track metrics like incremental contribution margin per unit which ties technical metrics to P&L magic.
