Forget the hype. In this episode, we’re shining a light on the quiet AI revolution happening inside small and medium-sized businesses - where spreadsheets still rule, inboxes are overflowing, and people are quietly building game-changing GPT workflows without a single hoodie in sight.

I’m breaking down why the Mittelstand - those deeply-rooted, often family-run businesses -might just be the real trailblazers in AI adoption. We’ll explore how assistants, project managers, and back-office problem solvers are using automation to reclaim time, reduce friction, and make room for the work that actually matters.

And no, it doesn’t require a tech team, a new department, or a rebrand. Just a willingness to start.

In This Episode, You’ll Learn:

• Why the real AI momentum is coming from small, agile businesses—not tech giants
• Who’s actually driving AI adoption behind the scenes (hint: it’s not the CEO)
• The surprising mindset shift that turns casual GPT users into automation pros
• How to break repetitive tasks into repeatable AI-powered processes
• Why most expert advice misses the mark for the Mittelstand—and what works instead
• A 15-minute challenge to help you find your first “AI-able” task
