Why 70% of AI Projects Fail?
Only 30% of AI projects succeed globally — a number that reveals just how difficult it is to turn AI potential into real business value. In this talk, I’ll share how we challenged that trend at Bank of Georgia by designing a custom AI project management approach that helped us reach a 75% success rate. We’ll explore the real reasons AI projects fail and what PMs and POs can do differently — from stakeholder alignment to AI-specific planning and communication strategies.
What You’ll Walk Away With:
Lessons from a real case study that achieved a 75% success rate.
Techniques to shift focus from building brilliant AI to delivering real business value
How to manage AI-specific risks, roles, and requirements.
Tools to align and engage both technical and non-technical stakeholders.
What PMs need to unlearn and relearn to lead AI projects confidently.
