Gartner Executive FastStart™ for AI Leaders

Gartner Executive FastStart provides a critical advantage to an incredibly complex role

New AI leaders face CEO and board pressure to deliver value while simultaneously building long-term foundations, demystify the risk AI poses and build confidence in its responsible use, and justify investments in a new area that lacks proven success stories. That’s on top of the inevitable learning curve of a new remit.

Executive FastStart doesn’t just identify these common challenges; it empowers you to overcome them by prioritizing what matters most — whether you’re an experienced AI leader at a new company or you’ve taken on a new role at your organization.
