ProfilProfile

AI & Automation Leader s viac než 20 rokmi skúseností v riadení rozsiahlych transformácií. Vediem AI stratégiu, governance a adopciu — pre slovenskú organizáciu v plnom rozsahu, globálne v rámci vlastných projektov, v súlade s európskou centrálou. Governance a risk staviam na reálnom základe z risk managementu a operational excellence (Master Black Belt), podložené dátami (Data Lake/Mesh, process mining, vlastné ML modely). AI zavádzam bezpečne, data-driven a merateľne. Budujem organizácie, ktoré AI reálne prijmú — nie len AI riešenia.

AI & Automation Leader with 20+ years leading large-scale transformations. I lead AI strategy, governance and adoption — end-to-end for the Slovak organization, globally within my project scope, aligned with European headquarters. I ground governance and risk in real risk-management practice and operational excellence (Master Black Belt), backed by data (Data Lake/Mesh, process mining, custom ML models). I adopt AI safely, data-driven and measurably. I build organizations that adopt AI — not just AI solutions.
