From Data to Decisions: How AI Is Changing Business Leadership “We only need one chance.” In this episode of 𝗖𝘅𝗢 𝗦𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆 𝗯𝘆 𝗟𝗶𝗻𝗸𝗖𝘅𝗢, Shrikant Kejriwal, Head Analytics, SBI Funds Management. His journey reflects a transition from technology and consulting into analytics, banking, strategy, and AI-led business transformation. Some of the key insights from the conversation: 🔹 Responsible AI must be fair. AI-driven decisions should avoid demographic bias and ensure fair outcomes for customers. 🔹 Don't confuse analysis with analysis paralysis. Good decisions often require multiple scenarios, perspectives, and trade-offs before choosing the right path. 🔹 Make decisions with the best information available. When data is limited, leaders still have to evaluate the options and make a choice. 🔹 Data should drive business decisions. His experience at Mahindra & Mahindra showed how analytics can move beyond insights to create sustainable business impact. 🔹 Leadership starts with empathy. For Shrikant, understanding the people behind every decision is as important as the data itself. His rapid-fire answer for his leadership style: “Empathy.” 🔹 AI is a disruption-led opportunity. The future isn't simply about AI replacing people — it's about understanding how AI can reshape business and create new opportunities. 🔹 Curiosity is a must-have for future leaders. His advice to young professionals: keep experimenting, keep learning, and keep doing internships. And one of the most interesting takeaways: “Data-backed intuition.” A conversation on AI, responsible decision-making, analytics, leadership, curiosity, and the ability to reinvent yourself across industries. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 🎯 EXPLORE MORE FROM LINKCXO - 🌐 Website : https://linkcxo.com/ 📲 Join LinkCxO : https://linkcxo.com/login-signup 💼 LinkedIn :   / linkcxoglobal   LinkCxO is an exclusive AI-based CxO’s Marketplace that brings together 30,000+ CxOs and Business Leaders. #LinkCxO #CxOStory #seniorleadership #executiveinsights #AI #dataanalytics #businessstrategy #DigitalTransformation #Banking #analytics #leadershipjourney #businessleadership #CLevelLeadership
