Where AI possibility meets performance

AI can’t be added to business as usual.

Mid-market B2B businesses are complex enough to add friction, but not big enough to throw money at the problem.

And that’s really good news for you.  

AI doesn’t simplify complexity; it compounds it. Which is why bigger competitors pouring money into AI will stall. More isn’t better.

To pull ahead, first upgrade your operating system: the underlying logic for how your company operates and creates value. Then add AI.

You generate ROI and a growth flywheel when AI’s the engine for a clear, focused, next-ready business.

If AI is a game, which one are you playing?

“Hi, I’m Jen Rice.

I’ve been working in customer-led strategy for B2B businesses for over three decades.

My superpower? Helping leaders see their businesses from the customer perspective. Working outside-in is an astonishingly simple and impactful way to hit every goal: growth, profitability, and competitive advantage.

Now AI’s necessitating this exact shift: cross-functional teams organized around customers and outcomes.

I previously served as B2B Sector Lead and CX Principal at Forrester in San Francisco. Now I’m a global citizen, advising and speaking around the world about building what’s next.

How to work with me

Possibility Playbook Diagnostic

The old playbook is broken.  

Companies can’t bolt AI onto old ways of working. AI is necessitating big shifts in how you think, work and operate. Are you ready?

This maturity-based diagnostic will help you understand the gap between where you are today and how you’ll thrive in the future.

Pair the diagnostic with the workshop to co-create your own Possibility Playbook with your SLT.
