Beyond the Hype
Finding Clarity in the Age of AI
We’ve been talking about artificial intelligence for years, yet it’s still unclear what it actually means for our work. Every day brings a fresh wave of headlines, expert takes, and conflicting advice. It’s overwhelming. And with the stakes so high, making the wrong move on AI can feel catastrophic.
​
Move too soon and you risk wasting time, money, and reputation. Wait too long and you may be left behind.
​
But here’s the truth: AI is not magic. It’s simply the latest in a long line of transformative technologies — disruptive, yes, but manageable with the right mindset.
​
In this uplifting and energising session, Graham cuts through the noise. Drawing on historical patterns and futures thinking, he’ll help you take a long-range perspective and move forward with clarity and confidence.
​
You’ll learn how to stay focused on what matters, evaluate the real opportunities and risks, and make smart, strategic decisions in a fast-moving world.
​
By the end of this session, you will:
-
Focus on the AI developments that truly matter, and tune out the hype
-
Explore both positive and negative scenarios to make more balanced decisions
-
Think more strategically about your role in shaping the future
Yes, AI brings uncertainty. Now's the time to lean into it.
Smash the Silos
Cultivating a Shared Sense of Purpose
Misaligned goals and departmental silos aren't just frustrating — they're costing your organisation millions in lost opportunities and diminished performance. Traditional top-down strategy cascades often create disconnects between leadership vision and frontline execution.
What if you could transform competing interests into collaborative momentum?
​
The Vision Pyramid framework bridges the gap between high-level strategy and day-to-day operations. This practical approach aligns motivation at every organisational level, creating natural incentives for cross-functional collaboration.
​
In this energising session, you'll discover:
-
How to create goals that simultaneously serve individual, team, and organisational success
-
A proven method for translating abstract strategy into actionable priorities
-
Specific techniques to foster genuine buy-in at every level
Through real-world case studies and interactive exercises, you'll learn to build a strategic framework that naturally dismantles silos and unleashes your organisation's collaborative potential.
