Leadership Lab - Five AI Leverage Points

Five AI Leverage Points Business Leaders Will Use to Win in 2026

Here’s what most people aren’t saying out loud yet.
The companies winning more right now aren’t doing anything flashy. They’re making a few very specific moves that compound over time.

AI is already playing a role in that. Not as a tool everyone is chasing, but as leverage in the places that actually move the business forward. In 2026, the gap will widen based on whether leadership sees where that leverage lives and how to apply it intentionally.

Join us for this lunch & learn session on Jan. 22, featuring Randy Bryan, CEO and Founder of tekRESCUE, a technology and cybersecurity-focused firm helping organizations operate securely in an AI-driven world. He is a speaker, author, podcaster, and AI developer with over 30 years of IT experience, guiding business leaders on how to strategically apply AI, IT, and cybersecurity to drive growth, protect the business, and improve decision-making.

Randy is known for elevating cybersecurity from a technical concern to a business-level strategy, translating complex risks and emerging technologies into clear, practical guidance leaders can act on with confidence.

A delicious catered lunch is included with this event.
