Length: 30-45 minutes
Purpose: Replace vague "AI value" conversations with a rigorous framework that ties every initiative to revenue, margin, or risk reduction.
Overview:
Defines enterprise value in operational terms: revenue expansion, margin improvement, and resilience/risk reduction
Explains how AI amplifies existing business systems rather than creating value in isolation
Examines real examples showing which AI applications move which value levers—and by how much
Equips boards to challenge initiatives that can't demonstrate a clear link to at least one value driver
Key Takeaways:
A simple, shared definition of value for board-level decisions
A framework for mapping AI use cases to the three value levers
The ability to separate strategic investments from shiny-object distractions
A challenge question to ask management: "Which lever does this move, and by how much?"
