Part of being a strategic business leader is to be forward looking, embracing new technologies to assist in becoming more efficient. This book does exactly that. I have embraced the growth of remarkably smart artificial intelligence (AI) technologies by using AI to help craft this book. The drawback of using AI is that sometimes inaccuracies can sneak in. With that in mind, the content may contain inadvertent errors or biases inherent to AI.
