She Writes Change

Like any technology, AI comes with it's own set of risks, from emergence of unexpected capabilities, hallucinations, creative interpretations to unexpected real-world behaviours. 

There's a growing need to track what truly moves the needle for businesses, not just on-time delivery but measurable ROI, customer impact and strategic alignment.

There are 3 key questions every exec should ask at weekly project check-ins. You're getting status updates, you hear what's 'green', but you feel the project is drifting. To shift from status to clarity, you need a different conversation.

Navigating AI Adoption: What's your biggest challenge and how do you solve it? Trying to harness AI can feel overwhelming. It's complicated and it's not SaaS, there are key challenges that need to be faced. From decision paralysis and a lack of skills to trying to grapple with infrastructure, ethics, data, security and change management.

Breakthroughs come from integration: Studies of interdisciplinary AI teams found that diverse backgrounds drive higher adoption and more effective outcomes than siloed experts

The reality is that the rigid application of either Agile or Waterfall rarely fits the messy reality of complex delivery. 

Successful projects are more than just on-budget and on-time, real value comes from benefits realisation. You can deliver the best project in the world, but if it doesn't deliver the benefits, then it's all been for nothing. Make sure there are measurable benefits at the start of the project, review them regularly and host post-project reviews with Business Owners.

The difference between strategy and success is delivery. Without it, every brilliant idea remains just that - an idea. Brilliant ideas don't deliver outcomes, unfortunately. It's project management that ultimately makes those ideas a reality.

Strategy might be critical but if it can't be turned into outcomes that people can actually deliver, then it's literally not worth the paper it's written on.
