I gave this presentation at BCG's 2023 Hive Conference on the topic of Irresponsible AI . This is a discussion about the times we asked if we COULD do something with AI when we should have been asking if we SHOULD do something with AI.

Précis: "A great technology strategy is crucial for the success of any technology company, but a great strategy isn't worth anything if it is not properly executing. In this episode, Matthew Sinclair gives us a lesson on how to define a great technology strategy and how to ensure that the strategy is executing correctly."
Précis: "Matthew Sinclair, Partner and VP of Engineering at Boston Consulting Group’s Digital Ventures and Jean-Marie Ferdègue, Director of Business Engineering, Gaming at Facebook, are the featured experts on this episode of the Business, Innovation & Technology Podcast. Together, they explore key elements of innovation: desirability, feasibility, viability, and impact."
"Matthew and Jean-Marie discuss how Digital Ventures and Facebook rely on multidisciplinary teams and cross-collaboration to develop impactful solutions. They also talk about how lean teams prevent scope creep, why companies must look beyond vanity metrics as measures of success, and what they look for in job candidates. You’ll also learn Matthew and Jean-Marie’s perspectives on what really drives innovation. It is not necessarily company size, industry, or access to resources. It is psychological safety, or every employee’s freedom to bring ideas (good or bad!) to the table and to feel comfortable failing and trying again."
Précis: "Adam and I spend an hour talking about leaders and leadership, and some of the philosophies, beliefs, techniques, mistakes, and hacks that I have learned over the years".
