Greetings Decision Maker,
Acquiring cutting-edge Gen AI tools does not transform an organization; a culture that lets teams experiment does. The central tension is balancing autonomy with support: teams need room to tailor solutions, while leaders supply strategic direction, resources, and accountability. A mid-sized retail chain with about 75 stores shows what that balance can deliver: within nine months, one team cut inventory holding costs by 12%, another lifted average order value by 10%, and a third reduced employee onboarding time by 20%. Cross-functional collaboration, a secure sandbox, and open knowledge sharing made those results possible. Leaders should set clear, measurable goals and then trust teams to choose their own methods.

What's Up With Me
After returning from the Rocky Mountain National Park, I decided to put this picture of Bear Lake on my phone. I've done this for photos I took in other beautiful landscapes that I visited, but this time was somehow different. Previously, the pictures were more background than anything else. Now, every time I pick up my phone I tend to spend at least a couple of seconds actually looking at the picture and marveling at its beauty. I guess it’s telling of my own intuitive aesthetics that I admire this photo more than the many others I had as my phone background over the years, and I am struck that it’s something I didn’t know about myself before. What an interesting way to discover my own aesthetic taste! |
