Using Gartner's Agentic AI Framework and Why Leaders Must Invest in Themselves
Agentic AI planning with Gartner's framework, investing in yourself as a leader, and earning my lead climb certification.
A couple of ideas that have been on my mind this month and a quick personal update.
AGENTIC AI
Have you been considering ways to create new revenue opportunities by using agentic AI? Or looking at ways to leverage agentic AI to improve client satisfaction and efficiency? Then this GenAI Planning Workbook from Gartner offers a concise framework for deciding why, how, and where to introduce agentic AI into your business. Pay particular attention to slide 6, 'Specify how GenAI will drive business goals.' Please look before you leap on Agentic AI.
INVEST IN YOURSELF
Several of the owners/executives I get to work with have been feeling particularly over-extended this year, most due to some combination of family or health issues PLUS feeling constantly dragged into the day-to-day, hour-by-hour decision making in their businesses. Please remember to invest time, energy, and intention on refilling your physical, emotional, and spiritual batteries on a regular basis so you can bring the best version of yourself to your friends, family, and business associates every day. Steven Covey's 7 Habits of Highly Effective People has a wonderful 'refill my cup' exercise in the four dimensions of renewal section of the 7th Habit — please go check it out.
AND ON A PERSONAL NOTE
I started indoor rock climbing earlier this year and recently became lead climb certified. It's more technical than the normal top rope climbing you see at climbing gyms, more demanding physically and mentally, and a whole lotta fun!
If either of these topics sparked something for you, I'd love to hear about it.
Does this resonate with you?
