In this episode of EITN Unplugged, host Catherine Yong sits down with Dr. Sekar Jaganathan, Group Chief AI Strategy Officer and experienced tech and business leader.
Dr. Sekar shares key insights on the evolving role of AI in enterprise, distinguishing the responsibilities of a Chief AI Strategy Officer, and leveraging AI for revenue growth rather than just cost reduction. He also addresses common industry assumptions around AI adoption, job displacement, and governance within heavily regulated financial environments.
In the final segment, Dr. Sekar discusses his leadership philosophy based on the principle “life is simple.” He shares practical mindfulness practices for tech leaders to reduce stress, prevent burnout, improve focus, and maintain high productivity across teams.
