AI: From the Breakroom to the Boardroom
A Non-Technical Guide to Business Leadership and Strategy at the Speed of AIBy Matthew FischerRecorded TrackLength3h 7m
About this audiobook
AI does not replace the need for leaders. It changes where leadership matters most.
AI has moved through three phases: first it assisted, now it acts, and next it will operate. Organizations that lead this transition will define the next decade.
In AI from the Breakroom to the Boardroom, AI strategist Matthew Fischer offers a clear, practical guide for leading through the most fundamental shift since the internet. This isn't a book about tools—it's a leadership and strategy playbook for rethinking how work gets done in the age of AI.
You'll learn how to orchestrate how people and AI work together, redesign work for how AI operates rather than how humans have always done it, and operate at the speed of AI with human judgment where it matters most.
Whether you lead a team, a department, or an entire organization, this book gives you a blueprint to lead with clarity, strategy, and speed. Stop optimizing the past. Start designing the future. Lead the change—or be shaped by it.
