RE: Finish the Job.
AI has changed expectations from employees, investors, and board members. The mandate is radical productivity. Every team must do more with the same resources. Yet too much work is still manual. Too many handoffs, too many swivel-chair steps, not enough action.
This won’t be solved by more dashboards. Real gains come from systems that finish the job. They capture how decisions are made, automate the outcomes, and ground all of it in real-time data.
We need the technology in the hands of everyone but we must also reshape habits. Every employee must capture how they work, apply their knowledge to the data behind it, and automate actions in real time.
That shift—moving from manual steps to systems that act—is why we’re already in the era of AI-Applications:
- AI as a partner, learning from how people work and helping them move.
- Applications that capture how decisions are made and automate the actions that follow.
- A unified system that makes analytics and apps usable by anyone—so IT can scale impact, not requests.
For the first time in data and analytics, we have the capabilities to match our vision. To go beyond insights and take action. To build systems for radical productivity.
No more excuses about what technology can do.
It’s time to finish the job.
