  • Data Before Models: Turning AI into Business Outcomes
    Oct 8 2025

    Most teams ask, “Which model should we use?” Federico Nagy (Co-founder, WayToGo Data) flips it: start with the problem, fix the data, then choose the tech. With 10+ years across healthcare, banking, fintech, telco, and insurance, Federico shows how leaders turn messy data and vague AI goals into practical wins.


    In this episode, you’ll learn how to:


    • 🧭 Lead with problems, not tools: Tie AI to clear business outcomes (revenue, cost, CX) or don’t do it.
    • 🧱 Get your data house in order: Pipelines, quality, and simple BI often beat fancy models.
    • 🪜 Crawl → Walk → Run: Manual → no-code → fully automated (with human-in-the-loop and evaluation).
    • 🎯 Personalize at scale: From regulated, client-specific newsletters to smarter channel-native social posts.
    • 🔒 Ship responsibly: Governance, fail-safes, and model evaluation windows before letting agents act.
    • 👥 Win the people side: Replace AI fear with curiosity, role-specific upskilling, and quick, scoped pilots.

    Highlights & Playbook


    • Data > model: The model is the smallest box in a successful data product—data quality drives results.
    • Three-tier delivery:
    1. Manual (Claude/GPT) to prove value
    2. No-code to think in systems (triggers → actions)
    3. Automated with tests, guardrails, and review
    • Human checkpoints: Agentic workflows need evaluation visibility before you remove approvals.
    • Start small, stack wins: Simple dashboards or cleaned CRMs can unlock more ROI than a new LLM.

    Federico’s 90-Day MVP Roadmap (Healthcare & beyond)

    Zero→One (or One→Two) program for startups/scaleups: business definition, gap analysis, pilot support, team upskilling, plus 1-year follow-on coaching.

  • Remastering Fire: Leading Creative Teams in the Age of AI
    Oct 1 2025

    Most AI talks chase hype and tools. This one is about leadership, creativity, and change.


    In this episode of AI with Bry, I sit down with Vincent Hunt — Founder & CEO of Frontier Technologies and the force behind the Bureau of Creative Intelligence — to explore how leaders can “remaster fire”: pairing human imagination with AI to move faster, stay human, and build resilient teams. In this episode, you’ll learn how to:


    ⚡ Build human–machine symbiosis without losing the “God sauce” of human creativity

    🧠 Replace ego and sticky notes with workflows that augment brainstorming and delivery

    🧭 Lead adoption with governance, transparency, and upskilling (so Mary’s “spreadsheet superpower” becomes her next promotion)

    🧩 Document AI processes now to create repeatable frameworks your org can scale

    🤝 Make your company feel more human, not less, by giving machines the mundane


    Tools & workflows mentioned:

    ChatGPT, Claude, Perplexity, Midjourney (plus a keep-it-simple stack mindset)


    Why this matters:


    80–90% of AI efforts stall without leadership. Vincent shows how to realign roles, rewrite processes, and guide overwhelmed teams through adoption—so creativity compounds instead of getting crushed.

    Sep 26 2025

    Revenue Growth Agent: Pre-Call Research to Proposal in Minutes.


    Most sales teams spend 30–60 minutes prepping for a call… then wing it. In this episode of AI with Bry, I sit down with Matt Oess (Partner at TechCXO) to explore how his Revenue Growth Agent (RGA) uses AI to:
