Regular readers of my newsletter will know that SMEs are often ignored in technological innovation – it’s why I’ve worked so hard this year to bring you practical AI and Automation solutions. The tools exist to save time and money – but most SMEs lack the time and money to source the right solutions.
In my first public AI webinar of 2023, in conjunction with my long time friend and fellow strategist Ben Watts, let us help you bridge that gap.
Cut through the noise and get a practical view of how AI can (and definitely CANNOT) help your business goals.
In this 45-minute, interactive webinar, gain deeper understanding:
- Where is AI in the Hype vs Reality Cycle?
- Who is best placed to protect and leverage AI inside an organisation?
- How are real world SMEs using AI tools right now?
- What are the 5 best tools you can safely implement today?
- PLUS All your questions answered!
If the promised productivity gains aren’t enough to excite you, know that you’ll come away from this event as the smartest AI expert in your business!

Blackboard Fridays Episode #33 – How to Run an Annual Strategy Day
Happy New Year! But I will leave it to you, to determine whether you’re looking ahead to 2024 … or just getting your teeth into 2023.
An Annual Strategy Day for your business doesn’t have to be run in January – but it’s the most common timing, and so November is the right time to plan ahead.
The roadblocks to running a great strategy day with your team are twofold: Finding the time can be a challenge, and most business owners are also unclear about how exactly to prepare, run, and implement a valuable opportunity that this presents.
So this week I share with you: How exactly to prepare, run, and implement something as valuable as your next strategy day. You don’t need an external facilitator to make the day work…
… but if you’re looking for an experienced strategy advisor at the cutting edge of technology and with expertise in the economic cycle, then I know just the guy.

With love,
