Leading With Care and Presence

John C. Maxwell said it best:
“People don’t care how much you know until they know how much you care.”

And this truth came alive for me again this week.

I had the privilege of facilitating a workshop with a group of Senior Leaders in Hong Kong, leaders responsible for shaping culture, driving performance, and influencing many. 

But what shifted the room wasn’t authority or expertise.

It was servant leadership,  the willingness to serve first, lead second.

What moved people wasn’t another model or framework.
It was presence.
It was empathy.
It was choosing to show up with care, not ego.

What made it even more meaningful was co-facilitating with Patsy - from ex-colleague, to ex-customer, to now a working partner.

A full-circle moment that reminds me that leadership is ultimately about relationships built through trust, humility, and consistency.

Servant leadership isn’t soft.
It’s powerful.

Because when leaders care, people commit.

When leaders serve, teams rise.
When leaders are fully present, transformation happens.

In a world that often rewards speed and direction. 

May we be the leaders who choose care and presence because that’s where real influence begins.

CEO @Tigon Advisory Corp. | Host of CXO Spice | Board Director |Top 50 Women in Tech | AI, Cybersecurity, FinTech, Insurance, Industry40, Growth Acceleration

As the founder and CEO of Tigon Advisory, I help tech companies of all sizes multiply their growth opportunities by leveraging AI, cybersecurity, IoT, supply chain, and customer experience. With over a decade of technology industry experience, I offer CXO-as-a-service and guidance to organizations through digital transformation, strategic planning, enterprise risk management, go-to-market optimization, and influencer marketing.

I have worked with enterprise clients such as SAP, IBM, Salesforce and Microsoft, as well as B2B SaaS, Fintech, Insuretech, and Martech startups. I also serve as an independent board director and a venture capital advisor, where I bring a unique perspective on technology thought leadership, cybersecurity risk management, go-to-market strategy, and customer experience. I am a certified cybersecurity expert from MIT Sloan School of Management, an MBA from Loyola University of Chicago, and a respected industry thought leader, a Wall Street Journal best selling author, a keynote speaker, and a host of CXO Spice podcast. I am passionate about empowering and mentoring the next generation of technology leaders, especially women and minorities.

Director Board of Directors

CEC is a security service integrator with focus markets in manufacturing, healthcare, SLED and Corporate Campus.  Customers with complicated organizations and physical plants rely on CEC as extensions of their teams in making strategic investment and management decisions related to their technology and infrastructure. I serve as Culture and Compensation Committee Chair. 

What happens when a founder’s first job shapes a billion-dollar comeback story?

That question has been on my mind as I’ve watched Mukund Jha’s journey unfold.

Back in 2005, he told a friend he wanted to work at Google.
By 2009, he was there.
And that early training ground left a specific imprint; an instinct to build from first principles, an obsession with stability, and a refusal to take shortcuts even when the entire market is sprinting.

You can see that philosophy running straight through Emergent.
And today, it came full circle: Google’s AI Futures Fund invested in Emergent.

Foundations set the direction; results reveal the discipline.
Here’s what that discipline looks like in practice:
✅ 2.5M+ builders in just 5 months
✅ One of the fastest runs to $25M ARR in the AI platform space
✅ 3M+ production-ready apps shipped
✅ Native backend infrastructure with zero third-party dependencies
✅ Users migrating from competitors citing “unmatched stability”

What happens when the world's leading GPU innovator and cloud computing giant double down on their 15-year partnership?

I found out at Amazon Web Services (AWS) re:Invent, where I sat down with Dave Salvator, Director of Accelerated Computing Products at NVIDIA.

His answer? "We never take our foot off the gas."

Here's what that relentless pace of innovation looks like:
✅ Full Blackwell lineup now available on AWS (GB200, GB300, MGX Pro 6000)
✅ NVLink Fusion integrating with AWS Trainium4; opening NVIDIA's proven, 7x faster fabric technology to custom silicon
✅ AI Factories expanding on-premises deployment options for enterprises
✅ Confidential computing in Blackwell for secure AI workloads in regulated industries
✅ Nemotron models live on Amazon Bedrock

Dave shared something that resonated with me: while hardware advances get the headlines, algorithmic innovation is the next frontier. NVIDIA's Project DIGITS is focused on delivering 40-50% performance gains through smarter algorithms instead of more compute.

The takeaway? This partnership isn't slowing down. With yearly platform roadmaps and Rubin already on the horizon, 2025 is shaping up to be transformative for AI infrastructure.

Accelerating AI Innovation: Inside the NVIDIA-AWS Partnership at re:Invent 2025

What’s Driving AI from the Lab to the Real World?

Bridging the gap between experimental AI models and industry-scale applications became the theme of my time exploring NVIDIA’s presence at Amazon Web Services (AWS) re:Invent; from a VC Startup breakfast at Osteria di Brera to hands-on demos across the Expo floor.

NVIDIA unveiled several breakthrough technologies this week:
✅ NVIDIA DRIVE Alpamayo-R1: The world's first open, industry-scale reasoning vision-language-action model for autonomous mobility
✅ Mistral Large 3: Now 10x faster on NVIDIA infrastructure
✅ Nemotron models on Amazon Bedrock: Bringing specialized agentic AI for text, code, images, and video directly to AWS customers
✅ Cosmos Cookbook: Practical resources for scaling physical AI development

The convergence of cloud infrastructure and AI is accelerating. NVIDIA's focus on open models, optimized performance, and accessible tools is democratizing AI development, making sophisticated applications available to startups and enterprises.

My conversation with Dave Salvator, Director of Accelerated Computing Products, reinforced how NVIDIA is addressing the entire AI lifecycle, from data generation to deployment.

We're witnessing a pivotal moment where physical AI, reasoning models, and open-source approaches are creating possibilities that seemed impossible just years ago.

I am thrilled about the opportunity to interview two startups founders from the NVIDIA Inception program: Diligent Robotics and Distributional, where we'll explore how they're leveraging these technologies to solve real-world challenges.

Are you automating the insanity or transforming your business?

That's the question Chris Hallenbeck, SVP & GM of AI & Platform at Boomi, posed in our latest CXO Spice conversation. And it cuts to the heart of the challenge.

Here's what most leaders miss: Agentic transformation isn't about making old processes faster. It's about fundamentally rethinking how work gets done.

The difference between chatbots and AI agents? Context, connectivity, and control.

Chris shared a powerful example from Serco, a company serving governments worldwide. They transformed how they handle employee certifications, moving from annual checks to something far more sophisticated. It resulted in reduced costs, lower risk, and increased operational impact. 

Here's the reality check that every executive needs to hear:
"AI is actually easy. I can build an agent that is extraordinarily powerful in under five minutes. Connectivity is really hard. Connectivity with quality data is the hardest."

So what separates successful agentic transformation from expensive pilots that never reach production?  The companies that understand this distinction and build the right foundations now will gain substantial competitive advantages.

The CXO Spice Newsletter breaks down the complete framework with detailed examples and the path forward for enterprise leaders.

What will separate AI leaders from AI laggards in 2026?

Pleased to contribute to the 2026 DATAcated Trends & Predictions Report, and the insights from 14 data and AI leaders point to a transformative year ahead.

My prediction? AI agents evolve from tools to true workplace teammates.

In 2025, we saw AI become multimodal - processing text, images, and voice simultaneously. Agentic AI systems began handling complex multi-step tasks autonomously, with reasoning models showing dramatic problem-solving improvements.

Here's what I see for 2026:
✅ AI agents as colleagues - Independently managing projects and workflows end-to-end
✅ Real-time data processing becomes critical - AI systems require continuous learning from live streams
✅ Synthetic data generation explodes - Addressing data scarcity for specialized training
✅ Federated learning scales - Training across distributed datasets without compromising privacy
✅ Data governance intensifies - Lineage tracking under regulatory pressure
Organizations treating data as dynamic fuel will be the ones that thrive.

What if writing code is no longer the bottleneck in building software?

From idea to production-ready app.
Without writing code.
In minutes, not months.

Emergent just hit $25M ARR in 4.5 months.
Over 2.5M users are already building on the platform.
That kind of adoption points to a deeper shift in how software is getting built.

Here’s what makes this different:
✅ Agentic vibe coding that handles the full software lifecycle — backend, frontend, integrations, testing, deployment
✅ Native backend that removes reliance on third-party tools like Supabase, reducing complexity and failure points
✅ Production-ready from day one with built-in database, authentication, payments, and scaling
✅ Real-time iteration with specialized testing agents validating code continuously
✅ Pro Mode with custom AI agents in isolated VMs or a 1M+ token engine with 16K reasoning tokens for complex builds
✅ True native mobile apps using React Native + Expo for both Android and iOS
✅ One-click deployment with domain management — bring your own or purchase directly in-platform
✅ Full data ownership — your apps and data stay yours, with no lock-in

This goes beyond faster prototyping.
It changes who gets to build, launch, and scale real products.
The real barrier now is simply deciding to start.

If you want to explore what that feels like, Emergent’s standard plan is available for $5 for the first month at emergent.sh.

What do you think will be the biggest shift in product development in 2026?

How much did YOUR bank take from you last time you exchanged currencies?

Last week, I went to my bank to exchange USD to euros for a trip. They charged me a $36 fee on a $500 exchange. That's over 7% gone.

And I'm not alone. 

Here's the issue most people don't see: banks are quietly taking cuts on every international transaction.

You earn money in USD → Your bank converts it (taking 2-3%) → You pay a supplier → Their bank converts it again (another 2-3%) → You've just lost 4-6% without realizing it.

For businesses processing millions? That's hundreds of thousands lost every year.

Now imagine this:
✅ One account to hold 20+ currencies, so money never has to convert until YOU decide.
✅ Expanding overseas? You can open a bank account in a new country in 60 seconds, from your laptop.
✅ A private global payment network that routes around the traditional banking system so 90% of your transactions arrive on the same day. 
✅ Add on AI agents that handle invoicing, payments, procurement, and compliance checks while you sleep. 

No waiting. No manual transfers. No hidden fees. No 7% cut.
That’s exactly what Airwallex, a global fintech offers..  Airwallex just crossed $1 Bn ARR. (90% growth) by making one thing simple: eliminate the middleman.

Now you can accept payments, hold money in multiple currencies, pay suppliers internationally, and manage team spending, all in one unified platform.

Companies like McLaren Racing, Arsenal FC, and Canva have already made the switch. 

And Airwallex is going all-in: They’ve just raised $330 million at an $8 billion valuation (30% jump in 6 months) led by Addition and with participation from T. Rowe Price, Activant Capital, Lingotto, Robinhood Ventures and TIAA Ventures.

How much is your bank quietly taking from your international payments? It’s time to rethink what global finance looks like.

What happens when the world’s most advanced AI hardware meets the industry’s most powerful cloud platform?

This week at Amazon Web Services (AWS) re:Invent, the answer was unmistakable; and the NVIDIA presence was impossible to miss.

From packed keynotes to buzzing expo-floor demos, it’s clear we’re entering a new era where AI infrastructure is a catalyst. The conversations all pointed in the same direction:
✅ Accelerated computing is now table stakes.
NVIDIA GPUs powering AWS instances are enabling companies to build, train, and deploy models at speeds that felt impossible just a year ago.
✅ Partnership is the multiplier.
AWS × NVIDIA is empowering enterprises to scale AI workloads globally, securely, and efficiently.
✅ GenAI moved from concept to production fast.
Autonomous systems, enterprise agents, real-time LLMs, next-gen developer tools - NVIDIA’s ecosystem had a gravitational pull all week.

But what stood out most were the PEOPLE who bring that innovation to life: listening, guiding, inspiring, and elevating every moment.

The 1-minute clip captured something deeper than product demos; it showed a team showing up with energy, expertise, and genuine passion:
✅ Conversations that sparked curiosity
✅ Seamless collaboration across teams
✅ Visitors energized by every interaction
✅ A polished, human experience delivered with pride

Because in the end, hardware accelerates AI… but people accelerate possibility.
And this week at re:Invent, NVIDIA showed exactly what that looks like.

Is your marketing strategy treating AI as a persona?

At the Schneider Electric Innovation Summit in Las Vegas, I sat down with Abby Gabriel, CMO of Schneider Electric North America, and this shift in thinking became crystal clear.

As Abby explained: "We now look at AI as one more persona. How does AI as an influencer take our information and ultimately provide a recommendation to our customers?"

Think about that. Not optimizing FOR AI tools. Not using AI to automate. But marketing TO AI as a decision influencer.

Here's what else stood out from our conversation:
✅ Energy tech redefined – After more than 135 years in North America, Schneider is leading the convergence through three pillars: electrification, digitalization, and automation.
✅ Digital dominance – Digital now represents 65-70% of Schneider's marketing mix, with AI strategy at the forefront. Their MySchneider portal serves more than 100,000 customers monthly.
✅ Sustainability as strategy – Serving 40% of the Fortune 500 with end-to-end decarbonization solutions—consulting, hardware, software, and services that turn strategy into results.
✅ Ecosystems over egos – With 1,500+ customers, partners, and suppliers at the Summit, Schneider proves success comes from elevating the entire ecosystem.

The future of energy technology is electrified, digitalized and automated. It turns watts and servers into intelligence, ecosystems, and sustainable outcomes.

Is your #SupplyChain ready for the next disruption?

Today it's tariffs. Next year? Something else entirely. Disruption is inevitable; resiliency is a choice.

I had an eye-opening conversation with Richard Howells, SAP's VP of Solution Management for ERP, Finance and Digital Supply Chain. 

Here are a few key takeaways:
✅ Start with the business problem, not the technology. AI is only as good as the data powering it.
✅ Sustainability and profitability aren't mutually exclusive—one company managing 820,000 truckloads proved both are possible.
✅ 30% of our workforce is 55+. We need to capture institutional knowledge NOW before it retires.
✅ Cloud-first infrastructure is no longer optional if you want to keep pace with change.

As we head into 2026, the AI landscape is shifting dramatically. The era of "move fast and worry about governance later" is ending, and a new reality is emerging: trust and innovation are inseparable partners.

The organizations that will thrive won't simply be those that deploy AI first. They'll be the ones that recognize governance makes sustainable innovation possible.

Here's what the data tells us:
✅ CFOs are demanding real ROI, not just AI buzzwords
✅ Companies that can't show concrete results in 6-12 months risk seeing initiatives shelved
✅ With inconsistent government regulation, corporate self-governance must step up
✅ The winners will be those who build AI with accountability baked in from day one
✅ Governance accelerates growth by building the trust that allows AI to scale.  ✅ Shortcuts create technical debt. Discipline creates competitive advantage.

As Reggie Townsend put it: "Governance isn't a restraint on innovation, it's a necessary companion."
