Dov has lived inside messy processes, impatient stakeholders, and the pressure to deliver without perfect inputs. Dov has been on stages since 2019 and since 2023 trains teams to Befriend Generative AI with one rule: mindset first, tech second. No hype, no tech-speak. Just practical moves that protect trust and still get results.
