AI won't fix your organizations. It will scale the weaknesses.

I have spent more than 26 years in the technology industry, working across complex systems, large-scale platforms, and global organizations. Across industries and regions, one pattern is consistent: transformation efforts fail not because of technology, but because decision-making structures, governance models, and human behavior are not designed for change at scale.

In the AI age, this gap has become a material business risk. AI amplifies bias in systems, accelerates poor decisions, and exposes fragile leadership and operating models. What many organizations frame as an “AI challenge” is, in reality, a decision quality, governance, and organizational resilience problem.

My work focuses on neuroscience-driven transformation - applying evidence-based insights on how humans think, decide, respond to risk, and collaborate under uncertainty. Neuroscience is not a soft discipline; it is a performance lens. Organizations that understand attention, motivation, fear, and cognitive bias build better systems, make better decisions, and execute transformation more effectively.

Since founding Lardi & Partner Consulting in 2012, I have led more than 50 major transformation initiatives worldwide, including strategic programs for governments and Fortune 500 organizations. My experience spans multiple industries and exponential technologies, including artifiticial intelligence, blockchain, IoT, AR, VR and emerging digital architectures; always with a focus on measurable outcomes and long-term enterprise value.

I am the author of Artificial Intelligence for Business, a comprehensive guide to AI and its practical application in organizations, as well as the bestselling The Human Side of Digital Business Transformation. Both reflect my focus on translating complex technologies into strategic, operational, and governance decisions that deliver real business impact.

I am a recognized global voice on digital transformation and leadership, with my perspective grounded in execution, not theory, and shaped by decades of working where technology, power, and organizational reality intersect.

I work with senior leaders and boards who want to strengthen decision-making, reduce systemic risk, and build organizations that are resilient, adaptive, and fit for the AI era.

I'm on a mission to close the funding gap by 2032.

Less than 2% of startup funding goes to female-founded companies. And when they get funding, the amounts are lower than for their male counterparts. 

As a result, problems that predominantly affect women are under-researched, underfunded, and do not get solved. Whether in health, wealth management or climate, this leads to outcomes where women are treated as second-class citizens.

I believe the time has come to change that and make investing in female-led companies as normal as investing in companies led by men.

In my podcast, Women Disrupting Tech, I provide female founders with the platform they need to shine and inspire other women to pursue their entrepreneurial dreams. 

And with Fundcoach.ai, I use the lessons from founders and investors to build the tools that are needed to connect female founders and investors with each other using AI.

Follow me for posts about the podcasts, insights from my guests, and to follow my entrepreneurial journey.
