Why this course: 70% of AI initiatives in organizations fail today not because of a lack of good AI solutions but because of a lack of understanding of AI among the managers - the end users, decision makers and investors in AI.

Many executives & managers struggle with the complexity of AI in realizing organizational growth today. Everyone is talking about it, but only a few know how and when to leverage it. You would like to achieve an efficient way to grow and retain customers, but you are not sure where to begin or how to get more value out of your AI investments?
My name is Malay Upadhyay and I help to bridge the gap between the customer journey and AI for organizations. Sustainable growth is achieved through a sound understanding of customer journeys as they progress from unknown prospects to resonant fans. That's marketing, sales and customer success weaved into one. In my current role, I ensure that mid-market and enterprise firms get value from custom AI solutions for their unique growth and customer realities. Over the years, I have trained and guided 200+ managers and executives on getting the most out of AI enablement. A Duke of Edinburgh awardee, I was also recognized as one of the Top 10 pioneering business leaders by Mirror Review in 2021.
I had the privilege of being part of the European AI Alliance that informed the High-level Expert Group (HLEG) on the European Commission’s AI policy in 2018-19. An internationally and multi-lingually published author of the AI Management series for Asia’s largest tech publication house, I also serve as an advisor to URichmond's CX Program, online instructor and speaker at conferences like the European Digital Week 2020 and the AI Adoption panel at ‘ISPIM (International Society for Professional Innovation Management) Connects Ottawa 2019’, hosted by the National Research Council (NRC) Canada.
