In this episode, she explains how executives and founders see a business differently, and why she combines business strategy, AI strategy, and leadership mentoring in one engagement rather than three separate hires.\nKristy also tackles a common belief among owners: that AI strategy is only for big companies with big budgets. She shares how she makes it practical for solo founders and micro businesses. She describes her hands-on sessions, where a physical business model canvas, markers, and sticky notes help owners see their whole business laid out for the first time. She closes with a real example of a stuck founder and what changed once their business model came into focus.\nTopics Covered\n\nThe gap between how executives and founders think about a business\nWhy strategy, AI, and mentoring work best together\nMaking AI useful and doable for small and micro businesses\nMapping a business on a physical business model canvas\nA founder's story: from stuck to clear\nTakeaway for Business Owners\n\nClarity about how your business actually works comes before growth, and the tools to get there are more accessible than most owners think.\nConnect with Kristy\n\nwww.openconceptsi.com · kristy@openconceptsi.com · linkedin.com/in/kristytupper\n\nBuilding and Protecting Your Business Worth with Thomas J.
