Speaker one-sheet
Adam Anderson — Where AI Belongs in Your Business
A practical keynote for owners and executives who have heard what AI can do and now need a sound way to decide what belongs in their business.
The talk
Most leaders have no shortage of AI possibilities. The difficult part is deciding which ones matter to the business. Adam shows audiences how to map where value is created, identify worthwhile improvements, compare the choices and run an early test before making a larger investment. The aim is practical judgment without hype, jargon or a sales pitch.
Audience outcomes
- A simple 5x5 map for seeing where AI could affect revenue, cost, risk, speed, or customer experience
- A way to score opportunities on impact, readiness, adoption friction, cost, and risk
- An evidence loop: start with business friction, run a small experiment, then stop, continue, or invest
- Permission to choose deliberately—because higher AI maturity is not automatically better
Formats
Keynote — 45 minutes
A business-wide view of where AI may help, how to compare opportunities and what evidence to require before spending more.
