From Oversight to Foresight: a board’s work in an age of AI
AI multiplies the options in front of a board, not the quality of its judgment. Three questions, one rule, and five things a board can hold management to. Every claim footnoted.
An evening about the difference between where you’ve been and where you’re going, and why only one of them is a story. The recap, the web deck, and the two takeaway pages.
Keynotes and workshops, and how to check a date: Speaking.
Customer experience and store design, from the years when that was the front line. Kept here because the thinking still holds; the examples are of their time.
The position piece above is also a LinkedIn article, and shorter pieces appear there first: linkedin.com/in/mikewittenstein.
How this site is written, and where every claim comes from: How we use AI and Sources.
No prep. No deck. No pitch.
A working conversation about the future you’re trying to create — and what’s keeping it from moving. Around here it’s called a Chemistry Check: a fit test that runs in both directions.
