As organisations accelerate AI adoption, how confident are we that the foundations it’s built on are truly fit for purpose?
We’re pleased to invite you to an upcoming HiveEngage session with Anastasia Lewis, exploring the often unseen risks sitting within today’s technology and operational environments.
As organisations accelerate AI adoption, many are building on systems and processes that were never designed for scale, complexity, or rapid change.
In this session, Anastasia will explore how firms can appear in control on the surface – while underlying systems, data flows, and ownership structures tell a very different story.
Rather than focusing on tools or theory, this session takes non-technical look at how systems actually behave when scaled, and how organisations can take a practical approach to mapping this behaviour to gain operational leverage.
Anastasia will begin with a 30-minute insight-led talk to introduce the core ideas. If there’s strong interest, we may follow up with a more practical workshop exploring systems mapping in greater depth.
