Speaking

What do I speak about?

I speak about how AI pays off in a company: which AI ideas get done, how to steer many AI initiatives, what AI costs, and how to measure what it delivered.

I have spoken at conferences, in executive programs, at universities and on podcasts, in English and in German. I want every talk to leave the audience with a clear view to act on.
