Get the AI & Transformation Leadership You Need — Without the Full-Time Cost

Strategic guidance, embedded leadership, or targeted consulting to navigate AI implementation complexity and deliver measurable results. Choose the engagement model that fits your needs.

Your AI Initiatives Don't Need Another Strategy Deck - They Need Experienced Leadership 

Most mid-market companies face the same challenge: AI offers enormous potential, but implementation is complex. You need someone who has led enterprise transformations, navigated stakeholder politics, and actually gotten AI to production—not just created PowerPoints.

The typical options aren't ideal:

  • Hire a full-time Chief AI Officer: $150K-$378K annually (plus benefits, equity, and 6-12 month search process)
  • Engage Big 4 consulting: $750K-$3M for a typical 6-month project, with junior analysts doing most of the work while you pay $500-$1,100/hour blended team rates
  • Go it alone: 70% failure rate for AI projects due to lack of specialized expertise

There's a better way: Get executive-level AI and transformation expertise on a flexible engagement model that fits your budget and timeline.

Is This Right for Your Organization?

This Is For You If...

âś“ You're a mid-market company (100-2,000 employees) implementing AI initiatives

âś“ You have budget allocated for AI but need guidance on where to invest

âś“ Your team is smart and capable but lacks specialized AI transformation expertise

âś“ You're past the proof-of-concept phase and need to get to production

âś“ You need strategic direction more than hands-on implementation

âś“ You want measurable results and ROI, not just impressive slide decks

This Isn't For You If...

âś— You need someone to do the technical implementation (I guide strategy, your team executes)

âś— You're looking for a full-time employee (this is fractional/advisory work)

âś— You're still in exploratory phase (start with the AI Strategy Assessment instead)

âś— You need 24/7 availability (I work with 2 clients maximum to ensure quality)

âś— You want vendor recommendations with kickbacks (I provide unbiased guidance only)

My approach is different:

No AI Hype I tell you what's realistic for your budget, timeline, and organizational readiness—not what vendors want you to buy.

Implementation Focus 70% of AI projects fail because of execution challenges, not technology limitations. I specialize in getting initiatives from pilot to production.

Cross-Industry Perspective Pattern recognition across industries accelerates your time-to-value. I bring proven frameworks from other sectors to solve your unique challenges.

Change Management Expertise Technology is easy. People are hard. 20+ years of complex transformation means I know how to navigate stakeholder politics and organizational resistance.
