Testimonials

“How AI will reshape business may be the single most important question facing leaders today. Turning generative AI into business value requires difficult decisions about people, technology, data, and organizational change. By following an executive through that journey, this book brings those decisions vividly to life. It’s a highly engaging, practical read for leaders navigating AI adoption.”

Prasanna Tambe, Professor at The Wharton School, Co-Director of Wharton Human-AI Research

“What an engaging, fun, and practical read for any business leader trying to integrate AI as a mainstreamed tool in their organization.  Ironically, the human element of change management is what needs to go well for GenAI to be useful and I came away energized, with a clearer sense of what’s possible and how to get started after reading this book.”

Jennifer Simpson, CFO at Ashoka

“Kohli’s SEE Framework (Strategy, Excellence, Enablement) is exactly the practical playbook leaders need, as it is grounded in real work navigating governance, privacy, and customer adoption. This book cuts through the noise and delivers actionable frameworks any business leader or technologist should read.”

David Getler, Chairman and CEO at KryptoCore, Inc

“Written for both technical and nontechnical readers, the book gives you a front-row seat alongside the stakeholders: their discussions, insights, and collective learning experience. The frameworks presented give leaders a practical methodology, and the depth of knowledge will help any executive seeking to understand the complete journey of GenAI transformation.”
