AI for the Non-Technical Leader
A practical playbook for operators who want results, not theory.
Why this talk matters now
Your audience has probably sat through 12 AI presentations in the last year. Most of them were by people who have never run a business. They walked out with anxiety, slide decks they will not look at again, and a vague feeling that they need to “do something with AI.”
That is the opposite of useful.
I built and now run 10 production AI systems inside a single Chick-fil-A. Real operations, real employees, real customers, real P&L pressure. This talk is the show-and-tell version of that work.
What’s in the talk
The talk opens with a story about the day my team realized AI could free them from the work they hated. Then I walk through, with live demos, the 10 systems I run.
Each system is shown the way I show it to my own team:
- What it does
- What it cost to build
- What it saves per week
- What the human still does
- What broke when we rolled it out
The middle of the talk is a framework I call the Pick One Filter. Your audience will use this to identify the single highest-leverage AI system in their own business and walk out knowing exactly where to start.
The last 10 minutes is Q&A and a closing on the difference between AI as productivity (replacing human work) and AI as leverage (freeing humans for the work that matters).
How I customize for your audience
Before your event, we run a 30-minute prep call. I learn your audience’s industry, their pain points, the AI tools they have already tried, and what they are sick of hearing. I rework stories and demos to match.
For a healthcare audience, I swap restaurant examples for clinical operations. For a manufacturing audience, I swap the catering reactivation system for a supplier ops example. For a conference of executives, I shift the framework to focus on capability building at company level rather than personal use.
Customization is included in the fee.
