[0:00] I'm here with Dale Mador from Cadence

[0:02] Growth. His strategic planning framework

[0:04] has generated $200 million in business

[0:07] value across 17 different companies.

[0:09] Most businesses are racing to implement

[0:11] AI without what Dale calls strategic

[0:14] context. It's like strapping a jet

[0:16] engine to a bicycle. While your

[0:18] competitors are drowning in random AI

[0:21] experiments, you're about to get clarity

[0:23] on where your business is going before

[0:25] you add AI in. And yes, we've turned it

[0:28] into a free AI coach that you can start

[0:30] to use immediately. Dale, welcome to the

[0:34] >> Thank you. It's good to be here. What

[0:58] haven't even started the venture yet.

[1:00] I've got this idea. Great. Let's work

[1:01] through these six questions as a as a

[1:03] starting point because it could give you

[1:05] great clarity on which direction to take

[1:07] in the venture. and we're going to be

[1:09] putting all the advice and and the

[1:11] guidelines that you're going to give me

[1:12] in this in this interview and this video

[1:14] into a custom GPT so people can get at

[1:16] least a taste of what it would be like

[1:18] to work with someone like you uh using

[1:20] AI.

[1:20] >> You know, there's s
