Business as usual doesn't suffice to conquer data and AI.
People's domain knowledge often remains untapped – making it hard to identify challenges and opportunities with data & AI. Leaders are outsourcing ownership of the topic to tech experts or C-level. And C-level struggle to prioritize among data and AI initiatives, lacking clarity on which create the most value. OAO is here to change that.

FAQ
Is OAO's transformation training more like an university program or a Mooc like Coursera?
OAO is crafted by progressive business academics and leaders—Harvard and MIT grads, HEC and NHH professors, and a network of leading creatives and engineers.
How is OAO different from company surveys?
We think company surveys are great, either the mass online surveys focusing on high-level data at scale, or the dedicated expert surveys or focused groups focusing on higher level resolution data from smaller groups. A major issue, however, with both these approaches is the strong assumptions we make about what the respondents know about topics being asked. OAO combines education and data collection by upskilling people before we ask questions. This way, we can assert relevant reflections and insights, and deliver an almost unprecedented response rate compared to standard company surveys (>95% completion rate).
How is OAO different from a consultancy?
OAO overlaps with management consulting firms & ideation coaching consultancies in the results we aim to achieve: To identify challenges and opportunities, identify new and innovative use-cases, and design actions and strategies to act on identified obstacles and opportunities. The major difference is that we strongly believe the leaders of the great companies we work with are the best suited to come up with the solutions themselves. They only need the right tools for the job. To use an analogy: OAO is the pen and paper helping leaders write their own transformation success story.
Are the Training and the Mission Control two different products?
No. They are the two very complementary components that make up the unique solution that is OAO: The training upskills, aligns and empower key employees on core issues for the data & AI transformation, all while capturing their unique reflections and ideas for roadblockers and new opportunities. These educated insights then feeds into the Mission Control that empower leaders to make more educated decisions about how to overcome roadblockers, act on opportunities and improve prioritization of AI initiatives.
