Topic: Banking on Change – The Leader’s Guide to Achieving Exponential Growth in the Age of AI
Our guest is James Robert Lay founder and CEO of the Digital Growth Institute and a leading digital marketing author, speaker, and advisor for financial brands.
On this episode, James Robert Lay discusses his new book, Banking on Change – The Leader’s Guide to Achieving Exponential Growth in the Age of AI. In this book, John Robert Lay provides a strategic framework for exponential growth.
A primary tenet of the book is that the Age of Artificial Intelligence spares no one from its transformative power.
In fact, the rate at which technological change is accelerating is not just significant; it’s exponential in a way that has the power to reshape entire industries, from education to healthcare to banking. This can feel both exciting and confusing, both opportunity-rich and overwhelming. Mr. Lay asks, “How do we keep up? How do we move forward? What’s the next best step?”
Mr. Lay states that the answer lies in assessing the real obstacle to future growth, which is human transformation. As a leader, are you excited and energized about an exponential future? Or does the path feel frustrating and chaotic? Do you have the tools, strategies, and mindset to lead others in co-creating an even bigger, better, and brighter future together? Or do you risk getting stuck because you fear the unknown, change, and failure?
To answer these questions, James Robert Lay draws from his decades of leadership in financial services and fintech to guide you on a journey of human transformation, helping ensure you, your team, and your organization achieve exponential growth in the Age of AI. Listen and enjoy!
