Show Notes
In today’s episode, I’m joined by Hardik Jagda, entrepreneur and leading AI strategist at Proximity Works, for a conversation recorded from Radio Row at the Super Bowl. We talk about the real challenge facing executives right now as boards demand AI strategies while the technology evolves at breakneck speed. Hardik explains why many leaders get distracted by tools instead of focusing on outcomes, and why most AI pilots fail to produce meaningful ROI. We also discuss the cultural resistance slowing adoption, how AI can multiply a leader’s output, and why experimentation, mindset, and clear business goals matter more than chasing the latest technology trend.
