What People are Saying

"If you have ready any of Jennifer's books before, then you will appreciate the continued sharing of knowledge she has always given her readers. This book is no exception. This is a great companion to her "How to be a Chief Operating Officer" book. It peels back the initial layers of how AI, ChatGPT in this book, can help and add challenges to the role. This is a must read for anyone that wants to keep up with our ever evolving technology in the world ahead of us. The fact that this book is partially written by ChatGPT just goes to show you where the technology is and it is crazy to think where it might go from here. Thank you Jennifer for being brave enough to take the leap and share the authoring of a book with AI. I look forward to what you will share with us in the future."
