Interviewer: Today, I'm interviewing Ms. Deborah Perry Piscione on her 2nd of July, 2025 article in the Harvard Business Review titled: It's Time for Your Company to Invest in AI. Here's How. Ms. Piscione is also with Josh Drean, author of the book: Employment is Dead: How Disruptive Technologies are Revolutionizing the Way We Work, published by Harvard Business Review Press in January 2025. Listeners are expected to have read the Harvard Business Review article before listening to this interview. A link to Ms. Piscione's professional biography as a venture capitalist, serial entrepreneur, thought leader in innovation, board advisor, New York Times best-selling author, and keynote speaker accompanies this interview. Ms. Piscione, thank you very much for sparing the time. The focus of this interview is what business should do about this new kid on the block, AI, and importantly how they should do what they do. You write in your article that companies that excel at evaluating competitive differentiation potential, organizational readiness, long-term strategic alignment, consistently perform better than companies that make decisions based primarily on upfront costs or technological preferences. You also write organizations must develop internal capabilities to manage complex implementations.
