Geoff Woods: How Leaders Can Harness AI to make Faster, Smarter Decisions

On this episode of the Grow My Accounting Practice podcast, Geoff Woods, author of The AI-Driven Leader and founder of AI Leadership, joins us to explore how leaders can effectively harness the power of AI to drive smarter, faster decision-making. Geoff shares his personal journey into the world of AI and breaks down why, despite knowing AI is the future, many leaders feel stuck when it comes to getting started. He explains how technology doesn’t just change jobs — it reshapes which skills are valued and how processes are executed. Geoff emphasizes that it’s not the tools, but the leaders who use them, that ultimately determine the impact on an organization. He also highlights a common pitfall: most professionals are using generative AI for minor, tactical tasks rather than for strategic initiatives that truly move the needle. This episode is a must-listen for anyone ready to shift from overwhelm to innovation and unlock the real potential of AI in their firm.
