Founder of The Future Solving Company, helping organisations position themselves for the future in an era of AI.
What did he study? One concept/idea
Brian Evergreen focuses on the concept of Autonomous Transformation. It’s about how organizations in the era of AI can transform themselves not only technologically but also organizationally — creating long-term value that is economic, social, and human-centered.
Why interesting for a company?
This concept is valuable because it goes beyond efficiency. It helps companies strengthen competitiveness, innovation, and employee engagement. AI is framed not just as an automation tool but as an opportunity to rethink the organization and unlock human potential.
What did he identify? Main result
He identified that successful companies do not just “add” technology. Instead, they implement strategic frameworks that guide large-scale investments (more than \$20 billion in his projects) toward human-centered, sustainable transformation. His main result: long-term success arises when AI is aligned with human values.
Managerial implication
Leaders should move beyond short-term automation goals and build AI strategies that integrate culture, employee development, and social responsibility. Managers need to create structures where AI innovation fosters trust, creativity, and resilience.
Boundary condition
His frameworks mainly apply to large organizations (e.g., Fortune 500) with significant investment capacity. They are harder to implement in small firms or environments lacking technological infrastructure or transformation readiness. Success also depends on leadership commitment, cultural openness, and a long- term mindset.
