the good news
Everybody is talking about AI, however the conversation needs to move from fear or fascination to experimentation and application. But where does one start? I’m glad you asked. Here is the good news...
The best place to start, according to global authority on exponential transformation Salim Ismail, is at the edge of organisations, away from the immune system of the mothership that may be prone to killing new ideas. And It doesn’t get much more edgy than operations across APAC for most global companies.
Salim and his colleague Stuart Lacey, have been studying the AI-enabled processes that have empowered numerous Fortune 500 companies to achieve 10x growth. They have turned this proprietary knowledge into a practical workshop focused on AI use cases that can be implemented quickly for maximum impact to drive growth in 2025 and beyond.
Salim and Stuart will be hosting one of these AI-Ready workshops exclusively for executive teams based across the Asia Pacific region at a heavily discounted rate for members and friends of Abundium, YPO, EO, and Workclub this November 20, from 10am to 2pm (Australian Eastern Daylight Time) via zoom.

exponential organisations
As a result of accelerating change, a new breed of businesses is scaling 10 times faster than established organisational structures. Salim Ismail calls these exponential organisations. This talk describes the characteristics and attributes of these organisations and finishes with how to implement these ideas into established companies.
He looks at today’s fastest growing technologies and the social impact they will have on our organisational, political, legal, educational, and medical systems. From artificial intelligence to biotech, these disruptive technologies are changing the face of many disparate industries and creating new innovations and opportunities.

I have found ExO to be extremely valuable. I’ve made the book required reading for senior management and we are implementing many of its principles.
This initiative is a prime example of how public/private partnerships are beneficial to the community.
Exponential Organizations should be required for anyone interested in the ways exponential technologies are reinventing best practices in business.
