The Intelligent Business Will Replace the Well-Run Business | Fractional CTO Podcast

I'm Up He Sees Me I'm Down is the Fractional CTO podcast with Mike Turner. Most business owners think adopting AI means buying new software. Ted Wolf says that’s exactly why so many AI initiatives fail. After building a technology company from two people to 650 employees before its acquisition by Iron Mountain, Ted has spent decades helping organizations improve operations, leadership, and business value. Today, through Guidewise and his new book _The Intelligent Business Equation_, he argues that AI isn’t primarily a technology problem—it’s a business transformation problem. In this conversation, Mike and Ted explore why AI implementation so often fails, why private equity firms are evaluating businesses differently than ever before, and why the next generation of valuable companies won’t simply use AI—they’ll become Intelligent Businesses. If you’re a CEO, founder, technology leader, or preparing your company for long-term growth or exit, this episode is a roadmap for what’s coming next.
