Described many of the aspects that we deal with every day as a management team and the intricate reasons why we haven't been as successful as we should. Delivered many scenarios that we have experienced over the last handful of years and pointed out the exact reason is didn't play out as planned
Attendee
Enthusiastic. I like the focus on AI as the future and the stories in the beginning but missing background on what your books are about and last year’s speaker was more emotional. The style of fast paced speaking gives energy and not boring but not enough pauses.
