Sunder Balakrishnan and Mahesh Balaji discussed how AI is reshaping the business ecosystem to enhance productivity, improve growth, and drive innovation.
Sunder Balakrishnan noted that during recent client conversations over the past year, three critical questions repeatedly emerged: Which initiatives will boost productivity? What are the key growth drivers? Which innovations are worth the investment? These questions underscore a growing focus on utilizing AI to address fundamental business challenges.
In evaluating potential use cases for innovation, Mahesh Balaji outlined a strategic approach that considers three key factors: cost impact, outcome-driven value, and the ability to absorb risks while evolving as a business. He stressed that innovation isn’t just about reducing uncertainty but about embracing it, moving from a deterministic mindset (predictable and controlled outcomes) to a probabilistic one (exploring possibilities and adapting to uncertainties).
This shift, he explained, is essential for organizations aiming to differentiate themselves in competitive markets and remain resilient in the face of disruption. The discussion provided valuable insights into how companies can balance risk and opportunity to drive meaningful transformation.
