Eye On A.I. · Real AI Transformation Costs HALF of Everyone's Salary for 2 Years | Chris Blackburn, Liatrio · 30 Jul 2026 podcast

And that's what we want to do more than anything is not, you know, have a group of people that are assessing and then giving boardroom feedback.

We want to have a group of people that are doing.

So our consultants and our engineers or our builders do the work so that they could report back on the struggles and the challenges inside the organization to then build a strategy and help them build a game plan for changing that.

Yeah, it's not easy and it's not just like a simple kind of playbook to do it.

Every organization is unique.

It's unique in some way of where they're doing well at, where they're struggling, what has come in and allowed them to do things in a better way or not.

uh the culture of the organization we go into some organizations that are like so friendly they even call it like friendly to a fault uh friendly to the point where they can't give each other feedback and things like that so you walk in you're like wow everybody's really excited and really motivated here and then they can't tell anybody else the truth or changes and things like that we go into organizations where you know feels very political and political games and all of that

Our approach is the same every single time.

We're just going to embed in there.

We're going to show you all what we have learned through many, many other customers and how we've made them work, how we've had experience in the outside industry, and just start applying that to the organization and their unique case.

And, you know, we see this all the time.

I'm sure every other consulting firm on the planet sees this a lot as well, is it depends on where you start out on the org.

You could get inside of a business unit or a team or whatever it is and have success in that team and then be blocked or challenged by the larger part of the organization as well.

And but our goal is always that like we are never going to be blocked forever.

We're going to see the block and then we're going to work a way up the organization to try to challenge those other aspects of it and bring people along on the journey is the most important part is the worst thing we could do is be one part of the organization where we run into, I don't know, let's say a architecture review board or something like that that slows down the system and then just go tell them what's wrong with it.

We would want to go over to that organization, ask them to come over to our shop floor and walk it with us and see what we're going through and ask them to partner with us on what this can look like in a better, more efficient way for the outcomes that we want to go after.

And it's really just trying to bring everybody along on the journey.

I don't go into very many organizations at all.

I wish I could say zero, but I don't go into very many organizations at all where I believe there are actually people in there that are trying to harm the system.

Everybody believes they're in there to try to make the system better for sure.
