AI Clarity: LLMs vs. Agentic AI vs. AI Agents — A Straightforward Guide for Business Leaders
In this practical guide, I cut through the buzzwords and break down what business leaders really need to know about AI: what it is, what it isn’t, and how to keep control of your technology strategy.
You’ll learn the difference between LLMs, Agentic AI, and AI Agents, and what each can (and can’t) do for your business. More importantly, you’ll walk away with the right questions to ask your IT team before signing off on the next "must-have" platform.
Common IT Frustrations for Business Leaders:
-
Misalignment with business goals
“It breaks my heart when our IT roadmap feels like a side quest—while my company’s real ambitions stall.”
-
Lack of transparency and clear communication
“I lie awake wondering what’s really happening behind IT’s closed doors—because I’m flying blind.”
-
High costs and budget overruns (e.g., spiraling cloud spend)
“Seeing our cloud bill climb every month feels like watching money slip through my fingers.”
-
Slow response to market changes (no agile, business-driven delivery)
“I feel like we’re sprinting in molasses—while competitors leave us choking on their dust.”
-
Uncertain cybersecurity readiness
“Every night, I wake up asking: ‘Are we safe, or is our next breach right around the corner?’”
-
Vendors and MSPs aren’t delivering real business value or accountability
“I’m furious when we pay for ‘expertise’ that never materializes—our partners keep missing inaction dates.”
My Value: I help business leaders achieve clarity, uncover cost-saving opportunities, and get confident answers that drive true IT-business alignment.
