Start with Why
Why not?
“Why is the thing that inspires us and inspires those around us.” ~Simon Sinek
AI Flight Plan is built on a single belief: to achieve the art of the possible you need a solid foundation and a plan before you invest in AI for your organization.
Isolated success can’t scale. Build the AI Adoption Framework first.
I’ve spent the last 15+ years leading strategy, operations, and transformation across big tech, start-ups, and Fortune 500s. I have been on the front-line of innovation and witnessed first-hand the exuberant chaos that comes with rapid growth. As an eternal optimist at heart and a “get stuff done” person, my perspective from the strategy and operations lens provided increasing clarity around the delta between success and failure.
My previous years as a pilot shaped how I approached the creation the “20-Point AI Adoption Framework©.” Every successful mission starts with knowing the problem we are trying to solve, creating a strategy, an executable plan and risk assessment. Yet, the plan has to be agile enough to allow for the unexpected, risks have to be mitigated, emergency procedures must be memorized, and success must be measurable.
Maybe you already have one team crushing it with AI tools. But if the rest of the business isn’t aligned, you don’t have transformation…you just have silos, bottlenecks and a bunch of people doing things their own way with no alignment. That’s why creating a connective tissue across the organization requires the right foundation, framework and infrastructure.
You must have systems in place to scale.
The 20-Point AI Adoption Framework©
The AI Flight Plan is your executive-level guide delivered in a 20-Point AI Adoption Framework©. Each concise, authoritative post provides a 3-Step simple process you can adopt immediately. You won’t find theoretical studies here, just 20 actionable recommendations to ensure your data, security, and process are ready for the future.
Launching soon! The Framework will be released in phases in the 4th quarter of 2025, and at the conclusion, you will be able to download the complete Consolidated AI Adoption Playbook, along with the 20-point quick reference checklist, 5-Quarter Roadmap, AI process scorecard, KPI/OKR guides, Workback Templates, and the audit-ready checklist. Collectively, this will provide an invaluable resource for your 2026 strategic plan and beyond.
AI is built by people and for people. You, your team, your customers, and your audience are part of the framework. When you empower your people, you earn their trust. With trust, they’re more willing to takes risks. With risks comes innovation. With innovation comes growth. And it all builds upon a solid foundation. When you invest in your people, you’re investing in the only future that matters. Shiny objects fade. Foundations last. People matter.
