Nominations for Awards 2024- CMCE
RSS feeds WordPress
July 25, 2024
I am flattered by the nomination for the CNCE Awards 2024 considering the initial skepticism towards artificial intelligence that existed. Articles chosen underline required changes for consultants. “Embrace AI in Strategic Management” outlines the use of analytics to make decisions as well as develop. “The Death of Management Consulting” on the other hand posits that business models need to be redefined with power given back to customers while at the same time coming up with new competitive strategies. These insights show why consultants need to offer something different from any other profession and show customers how they can always be ahead of their time through reinvention using emerging technologies.

This analysis shows a rapid and steady market growth prediction for synthetic data.Synthetic data is made up information created by computers to look like real data. It's used when real data is hard to get or could invade people's privacy. This data helps train artificial intelligence safely without risking sensitive information. Studies predict more AI data will be synthetic in the future. Synthetic data is cheaper and faster to produce than collecting real data, and it avoids privacy risks. However, it might not always accurately reflect real-life situations. There's also a need to update laws and privacy rules to handle synthetic data properly

Competitive Advantages with New Management approaches- Takeaways from a Roundtable
RSS feeds WordPress
February 17, 2023
The first edition has centred the original goal on letting guests sharing ideas, opinions doubts and proposals about how to enhance classic Competitive Advantages (CAs) regrouped in high-level groups and how to achieve the new ones.
In addition, keeping away Jargon and buzzwords (to the best of my capabilities) was successful.
Lesson learned: less is better
I have reconsidered the optimal number of attendees: 6 + me (instead of 8-10.) because:
1. It is more intimate.
2. As when starting from a question, thoughts unfold progressively (critical reflection)
3. Thus, there is more time to discuss and express new concerns, doubts, experiences, and ideas.
Question raised were:
*How do we achieve the new CAs?
:* where do you start to prepare the ground and act?
Meaningful views, comments and further questions were raised by the Guests mainly about this topics & sub-topics:
Leadership
Delegation
Leadership-Culture
Knowing your company’s culture
Listening.
Personalities
The points above are referred to "How can we change something we are unaware of?"

One of most relevant tool to enable decision-making about RPA, is the Business case.
Compared to the classic templates and adaptations, what often does not emerge is the holistic consideration of what we can call Indirect net benefits, the net benefits of People-centric approach, and the time when a firm can reap these indirect net benefits.
In a business case these factors have the role of mediators of the direct costs and benefits which as they are mentioned now, can reveal themselves misleading.

What is your people centric level to get the adoption of digital tech?
RSS feeds WordPress
January 08, 2023
Adapting to a disruptive and rapidly changing business environment requires careful consideration of stakeholders’ behaviour. It emerges from a wide range of research that most technological introductions follow a process known as task orientation. An organisation’s behaviour can be seen as a result of its people orientation.
PEOPLES focuses on individual cause-and-effect logic, not maturity levels since every company is unique. We think that having statistical data about root causes and effects will not help leaders move forward when talking about People-centric.

2. The human-centred design promotes buy-in and improves technology’s efficiency and effectiveness
3. Design help to mitigate the unbalanced relationship between processes’ efficiency and normalisation ( flexibility and future adaptation to a changing business environment
4. Scalability needs and opportunities: it is the consequence of point 3.

AI Orchestration: Coordinating Intelligence at Scale
Artificial intelligence is entering organisations through many separate tools, models, and platforms. Marketing teams use generative AI, operations deploy automation, and data teams develop predictive systems. The challenge is no longer access to AI but coordination across these capabilities.
AI orchestration refers to the structured coordination of models, data flows, human oversight, and governance so that multiple AI systems operate coherently rather than as isolated experiments. Without orchestration, organisations risk fragmented adoption, duplicated effort, and unclear accountability.
For leaders, the real strategic question is not simply whether to adopt AI, but how to integrate it across functions, processes, and decision-making structures. Effective orchestration determines whether AI remains experimentation or becomes scalable organisational capability.
Why I am ranked in the Top 10
Recognised among the Top 10 for AI, I focus on how organisations integrate AI into strategy, governance, and change. My work examines orchestration, organisational design, and leadership decisions that determine whether AI adoption creates real capability or fragmented experimentation.

March 10, 2024
Businesses can benefit from zero-shot learning chatbots as they offer a cost and time-saving solution.
Setting them up is simple, for those without coding skills. These chatbots excel in handling customer queries proving valuable for customer support services.
Additionally, they provide businesses with insights into their customer service effectiveness.
However, there may be instances where businesses need to provide training data for queries.
Overall many businesses are likely to adopt zero-shot learning chatbots due, to their affordability user-friendliness, and potential to enhance customer service quality.

Ranked #25 globally in Robotic Process Automation (RPA) by Thinkers360, reflecting ongoing contributions to research, strategy, and discussion on automation, AI governance, and organisational transformation.
Automation Is Simple. Augmentation Requires Care.
RSS feeds WordPress
March 11, 2026
Automation is often presented as the main advantage of chatbots.
They can answer repetitive questions, guide users through processes, and reduce workload in customer service or internal support.
In many cases, this works well.
But automation alone is the easier part of the challenge.
The real complexity arises when organisations attempt augmentation rather than replacement. A chatbot does not simply remove work; it changes how humans and systems collaborate.
Employees may rely on it for information. Customers may treat it as the first point of contact. Managers may integrate it into decision flows or support processes, such as using it to provide real-time data analysis or streamline communication among team members.
At that point, the chatbot becomes part of the organisational workflow.
From Invisible System to Conversational Presence
wordpress feeds
March 09, 2026
Software systems were traditionally invisible inside organisations, processing transactions and supporting operations in the background. Chatbots change this dynamic by introducing conversational interfaces through which employees and customers interact with systems using natural language. This shift makes technology part of organisational communication, requiring leadership attention to design, responsibility, and governance.
The Illusion of Artificial Warmth
Import from wordpress feed
March 07, 2026
They use conversational language, empathetic phrases, and sometimes even humour to make interactions feel natural. This design choice aims to reduce friction and improve the user experience.
However, there is a subtle tension.
Artificial warmth can easily create the impression of human understanding, even though the system does not actually possess empathy or awareness.
Governance and Boundaries
Import from wordpress feed
March 02, 2026
As chatbots are integrated into organisational processes, governance becomes essential.
A chatbot can influence decisions, provide guidance, or shape the information that employees and customers receive. This means its behaviour must be carefully controlled.

Acting as a kind of central junction, it ensures operations keep running smoothly – without a small mistake turning into something big.

In the research, the possibility of a bubble in AI is discussed, with reference to the three different contexts, namely: in US, UK and Europe.
According to it, the US seems to be more susceptible to such a case because of the high level of speculative investment, monopolization in the market as well as less stringent regulations. Conversely, the UK and Europe have chosen to be more prudent while adopting AI for practical purposes in sectors such as healthcare, finance and manufacturing.
This confirms that both these regions are safer when it comes to AI bubbles than America since they:
- Showcase varied AI markets
- Concentrate efforts on B2B artificial intelligence products
- Are more cautious due to stronger monitoring framework
It is these features that make progress of European and British industries based on AI more viable and less speculative than what has been happening in America at any given time.

Consequently, the gender sensitivity within the development stages has appeared as one of the areas where such developments would be used as tools in promotion[2].Gender biased algorithms used by artificial intelligence lead to injustice against individual people and lose making possibilities due to the absence of viable options from competition as well as stagnant business productivity due to lack of trust among other companies.

AI might take over basic work in the future so people can focus on complex and strategic tasks and plan for different scenarios by crunching numbers. AI also needs to fit the values companies and people have - it should assist them, not substitute them.

Their leaders need to learn everything they can at a strategic high level to know what AI can bring into the business and how it would even help create value. They need to be straight with the staff on what this AI is good for and what it isn't good at, and let people say what they think early so they feel part of it. AI might take over essential work in the future so people can focus on complex and strategic tasks and plan for different scenarios by crunching numbers.

New Quote for my New Columnist's role with The Financial Business Review
RSS feeds WordPress
September 05, 2024
This quote can represent the transition from the GARTNER HYPE CURVE when we have left "the hype" level and are now in the Trough of Disillusionment.
Briefly, this phase normally manifests from users, in this case Companies, Users of the first phase of Hype ( excitement interest, investments, speculations) when the exaggerated expectations are disappointed by
low quality
low reliability
of solutions, both from AI core producers, start-ups with their tools and solutions core-products based.
In addition, there are still so many open issues which are not fixed by regulations or laws ( ethics, Privacy, deep-fakes, and this is not an exhaustive list, but I hope it can give an idea.).
For some generations, which have lived the period of the dot.com hype and consequent Bust Bubble
Baby Boomers - born around 1946-1964- during the bursting of the dot com bubble, a large number of them were already at their top positions as managers or in other senior level positions of the IT industry or finance or any other sector affected by the bubble’s effect.
2. Generation X—born between 1965 and 1980—During the dot-com bubble, they were mostly in their 20s until they were 35 years old. Many of them were either launching careers or working at this point and consequently had practical knowledge concerning the rise and fall of tech companies.
3. Older Millennials- born between 1981 and 1986- Some older millennials might have been teenagers or young adults during the dot-com crash, mainly if they were interested in technology since the trends used to exist at that time or had relatives directly affected by the stock market crash.
These generations ( I belong to baby boomers btw) are living this period not with caution but with fear and anxiety, something that doesn't help to examine investigate analyse and evaluate both opportunities, risks but mainly to postpone any of informed decision about the AI adoption to bring benefits to their Companies and employees.
My active role is to bring more elements with publishing in Academic - Busine/academic journals to support with factual evidence what AI can or can't do.
After the hype, it's time to get back to business—with AI along the way.

According to GARTNER Hype life-cycle, GEN-AI is now in the Trough of Disillusionment. Now there are challenges for different companies status, of which two of them have the opportunity to clarify technology and those that continue with experimentation towards AI activation.
For both types is the best moment to shape and deepen AI Literacy ( Education and practice). ging back to business is how experimentation, clarity are closer to both day to day operations and strategic endeavours.
“Things happen when you are ready and your stakeholders are ready too”

August 02, 2024
The concept of Preparedness- both personal and group readiness with time taken into consideration combined with potential outcomes from a realistic point of view, are vital ingredients towards achieving success. Whether looked at from the perspective of philosophy or religion, the core idea remains the same: preparedness in combination with timeliness and patience enables us wait for a point when each and everything falls in its place. my grandma and my Mum became frustrated in repeating it for years.
Do preparation and readiness ring a bell about AI adoption?

I have been, in a sense, a seeker on the path of finding new ways to solve problems, and it has taken me to the world of academia, where I have publications in prominent journals with other scholars on topics ranging from ethics and corporate social responsibility to AI and Leadership.
The last papers have shared lessons from dot-com and electric vehicle hypes to ensure executives and senior managers do not commit similar failures within the AI ecosystem.
My next big step includes AIBI AI and Business, an upcoming online interactive course that I will be following to share the validated models, frameworks, and advice . This course represents the next step in my journey, where the knowledge and experiences gained are actionable for executives and practitioners.
"AI WAITS FOR NO HUMANS"
RSS feeds WordPress
April 07, 2024
AI is growing super fast—really, way faster than other tech ever did before. It keeps getting smarter at understanding data, working faster, and making complex decisions, all by itself. Unlike the old tech, AI doesn't wait for us to catch up, but keeps pushing forward.
AI is intelligent in itself. It learns, adapts, and decides things without our being the one to tell it what to do. That means it will not stop for us just because it might be bringing another big thing that we are not ready for.
In other words, we are going to have to do some serious soul searching in regard to our relationship with AI. In fact, this area needs to be preempted in areas of business and especially health and medicine so that we can realize how to fit AI into our world.
Everybody, not just the techy people, has to stay tuned for AI. It will be essential to ensure that all of us are going to be on board, handling the changes and challenges coming from AI. In short, the watch for AI is going to form such a huge fraction of our life.

I have accepted with joy the opportunity to deliver a speech online on Wednesday, the 17 of January, at the GENERATIVe AI CONFERENCE with the presentation
"Human-Centric Approach to AI Adoption”
Artificial Intelligence promises immense opportunity. However, we must proactively guide its development to align with human values and priorities - to augment our talents equitably rather than replace them recklessly. Key principles like ethics, workforce empowerment, participative design, trust-building, and human-AI collaboration can allow us to adopt AI judiciously as a partner in progress, not a foe of the future..

The indispensable Conversation: are we protected by Law and regulation from AI impacts?
RSS feeds WordPress
June 03, 2024
* The regulations are implemented to reduce or minimise any AI-associated risks. Different jurisdictions, such as the EU, the US, and the UK, have regulations. Business organisations must have ways to predict and face these risks rather than wait for the regulations
*business leaders need to establish standards for good AI. Leaders should empathise with how AI operates and its impact, as well as with privacy, ethics, and other stakeholder considerations.
* Companies must remain alert about changing laws. They must collaborate with local legal professionals and establish global practices for ethical AI use. This will help them keep the business consistent and be trusted.
* it is up to business leaders to be involved, informed, and aware of reaping more from AI in ways that will ensure it gets applied correctly and fairly.

Fact-checkers to reduce misinformations with AI
Date : December 03, 2023
Digital misinformation has already affected several areas of human life. In addition to Governances, recognised facts in political elections, and referendums in the recent past, with further AI and ML development that can generate and modify pictures, videos, and texts and create fake news, AI fact-checkers, even with their challenges related to further development and tuning LLM and NLP to a wide number of evidence to be checked, can represent a valuable resource to fight misinformation, in areas like Politics, Academia, Medicine, Health Research, and Business ( Finance, Financial markets, products and services) through a parallel people responsibility to make ethical use of them to ripristinate the ethical value of information.
New approaches for strategy management with AI- the end or refreshing of classic tools?
Date : October 04, 2023
Most companies today still use traditional tools for making business strategies. But in the future, AI could start changing how strategy is done. AI may bring new capabilities that complement classic methods. For instance, AI can rapidly analyse customer data to detect shifts in demand. It can also quickly model different scenarios to foresee market changes. This could make planning faster and more data-driven. However, AI has limits, like lacking human judgment and creativity. So, pure AI-driven strategy may never fully replace human strategists. Rather, the optimal path forward could be combining AI strengths with human strengths. AI may become an enhancement for strategists, not a replacement. The future likely holds a hybrid model, with AI and classic tools working together in new approaches to strategy. However, widespread adoption is still gradual as companies test these uncharted waters. Strategy and Ai.
Smaller AI models cost less money to use. That saves companies money when they use these models. Companies can also adjust the smaller models to be good at certain jobs. So if a company needs an AI to do one specific thing, they can customize a smaller model just for that job. That makes the model work better. Lastly, with smaller models, companies can have tighter control over the data they put into the model. That's important so they make sure their data stays private and secure. Lots of companies want to protect customer data and business information. The smaller AI models help with that.
So the main reasons are: cheaper to use, can be customized to be great at certain tasks and helps protect important data.
The end of AI and ML "back box" with XAI- Explainable Artificial Intelligence
Date : October 04, 2023
ML and AI have been developed to optimise models by increasing accuracy or decreasing prediction error. However, this approach often overlooks the importance of understanding why and how your ML model makes the predictions that it does. Explainable AI (XAI) seeks to increase transparency within artificial intelligence systems by offering explanations of their decisions, thus increasing trustworthiness for individuals using these technologies and increasing human-align decision-making by showing how AI systems make choices and operate. Overall, this XAI initiative hopes to illuminate its "black box", creating more fair, accountable, and human-aligned systems through understandable actions and decisions made by AI systems.
Trust in AI-individuals about trust in AI, and what is expected from employees, managers, executives
Date : October 04, 2023
Right now, most regular people don't trust AI fully. Employees, managers and executives know trusting AI has risks. But some AI can be trusted for certain tasks if built right. More transparency on how AI works is needed to increase trust. With the right trust, AI adoption and new processes can thrive. However too much trust in unreliable AI can hurt accountability and let biases go unseen. The goal is balanced trust - enough to gain AI benefits but still verify its decisions. Increased trust can enable innovation, but blind trust in AI can damage workplace culture.
Consolidation of Management models' disruption towards new Management innovation models
Date : December 26, 2022
The world since Mintzberg has proposed a different model to Hierarchical/Bureaucratic Management model.
The last period related to both COVID and the supply chain disruption as a first cause of review Management model sand not only the organisational ones, will open a door to Management disruptive innovation towards flexibility adaptation, dynamics and people-centric approaches. The impact will be on
- Leadership ( already debated and discussed with an overwhelming theories and suggestions)
- Culture
- Human centric approach for change ( and from here Hybrid-Change models)
- Effective practices of Business strategies and growth
- Different approach to Digital Transformation.
What is still missed is the description of the transactional period which need to safeguard business as usual ( BAU) but being utilised as scapegoat for failures by current management systems and models,
Embodied AI, or AI systems with physical form, will become more common beyond phones and computers. Though some will look human-like, many will likely have unique, engaging designs to make them more relatable and fun. As AI spreads to more parts of our lives through toys, home devices, and more, these creative physical forms will help people accept and bond with AI, despite its flaws. In time, friendly, helpful AI could become a regular part of our homes and daily routines.
Increasing the use of AI as an assistant companion
Date : February 02, 2024
More people will use AI to assist them with daily tasks and decisions. AI will help with research, data analysis, writing, and other jobs, acting as a tireless digital helper. Some may even delegate complex planning like vacations or ordering food to AI. As AI improves, it could take over annoying automated calls or even pre-screen dates. With many finding companionship in AI chatbots already, AI friends who conversate and provide company will likely become more advanced and widespread. In time, AI assistants, delegates, and companions could integrate deeply into how we work and live.
Overlooked or delayed because of LLMs race and development
Date : February 20, 2024
Small AI language models today are useful for many businesses to do specific tasks at a low cost. But these small models might struggle to keep up with huge, fast advances in bigger models that have broader abilities. So the risk is that the bigger AI models could start to do so many more and better things that businesses no longer need or want the smaller models. The small AI models may not be able to compete
