In today’s episode, we explore the Simplify to Scale approach — how companies can use AI, intelligent automation, and design thinking to remove operational friction, improve workflows, and unlock sustainable growth.

Our guest, Anthony Franco, is a serial entrepreneur, AI strategist, and co-author of AI First Principles and The Wiser Method. He has launched and successfully exited six companies, and now advises enterprise leaders on how to operationalize AI safely and strategically.

You'll learn how to identify the difference between necessary complexity (the kind that creates competitive advantage) and unnecessary complexity (the kind that wastes time, budget, and energy). Anthony also reveals why most companies fail with AI implementation — and how the right simplification process prevents wasted effort.

If you're a founder, CEO, COO, or operator who wants to grow without adding more tools, processes, or people, this episode shows how to scale smarter, not bigger.
