Drive Change
in the Age of AI

I have brought Drive Change into every company I have joined to help develop cross functional processes and accelerate growth. Shama serves as a coach to me and mentor to my leadership team. The impact has been material and immediate.

Shama has the remarkable ability to actively listen, ask thought-provoking questions, and provide tailored guidance. She consistently challenged and encouraged me to step outside my comfort zone, empowering me to make bold decisions and take calculated risks.

Drive Change's interactive and highly engaging workshops gave a huge boost to productivity. Whether we were designing a new process, resolving conflict across teams, launching a program or building our negotiation and communication skills; the workshops broke down boundaries and stimulated new thinking.

Drive Change brings an entirely different perspective to management challenges. At first, the advice can seem counter intuitive, however, rest-assured it's targeted to treat the cause and not the symptom. It has been an honor knowing and working with Shama!

Drive Change facilitated an workshop to help prioritize technology investments. Shama's process and executive style was highly effective in illuminating important decision criteria, managing multiple personalities, and keeping us focused – with the end result being full group consensus on a clearly defined IT roadmap 100% aligned with our business priorities.

I had the pleasure of working closely with Drive Change for two years to develop new lines of business in international markets. Shama was creative in generating new ideas, adept in designing financial and operating models, and expert in driving organization-wide alignment from concept to design.

Dr. Patel is an outstanding educator who challenges students to question assumptions, engage with complex ideas, and think critically about the impact of AI. Her ability to create meaningful dialogue and reflection transformed how I approach AI, ethics and leadership, and I am grateful for her lasting impact on my education and personal growth.
