AI is not coming — it’s here. This strategic session prepares business leaders to adopt AI effectively, ethically, and competitively.
Explore the biggest shifts AI will create across marketing, sales, operations and service. We’ll discuss where to start, which tools offer the best return, and how to lead through technological change — without overwhelming your people or budget.
