I also played a key role leading some of the largest Intelligent Automation client projects in the region, including:

• Global Automation project for a large institution: involving strategy, planning and transition activities for transferring 600+ FTEs towards digital workforce, and global/regional SSCs. Project has generated 25%+ cost savings and significantly improved process quality, and customer experience. I led the set-up and alignment of Management's expectations through the design of the overall Automation strategy, business case and the creation of the 3-year deployment road-map. Led regular steering committees to monitor Management's expectations, and to report on project performance. Supervised the vendor selection, and the deployment of 400+ robots and applications including process assessments, processes redesign, digital workforce estimation, RPA robots configuration, change management and training. Supported the design and set-up of the client’s internal Automation center of excellence and governance for sustaining benefits.

• Intelligent Chatbots: automation of help desks for HR, IT, quality and legal departments. Project phase 1 freed up 20% of the employees’ workload through the implementation of Intelligent Chatbot answering the first level of questions from users. Project phase 2 has increased the impact in FTE savings by integrating the intelligent chatbot with RPA, increasing the scope of services.

Can #AI replace Human #Creativity? 🎨

AI's entry into the arts, generating music, paintings, and poetry, challenges our views on creativity and raises questions about the value of human versus machine-made art. While AI offers exciting new possibilities and democratizes creativity, it lacks the personal touch and genuine emotion of human artists, making the future of art a collaborative venture between AI and human ingenuity.
