According to Sun Tzu, energy without strategy is chaos. This sentiment has never been more appropriate today, particularly concerning IT strategy and discussions around AI.

In this year-end episode of The Bridgecast, Scott reflects on a monumental year for Bridgepointe Technologies and the broader IT industry. The conversation explores key themes that dominated the year, including AI governance and its impact on business strategy, the evolving role of IT leaders, and lessons from C-suite executives featured on the podcast.

Topics discussed in this episode:

· Why AI governance and regulation are essential to prevent PR disasters.

· How IT leaders must anticipate objections and prepare for questions.

· Why cybersecurity is most vulnerable at the human level.

· Why generative AI can only deliver value if informed by accurate, clean data.

· How IT’s role has evolved post-pandemic.

· Why historical frameworks are still relevant for navigating modern tech adoption and strategy.

• Why collaboration tools like Microsoft Copilot bring immense potential but require careful planning.
