Keynote
The New Definition of AI Leadership

Anand Murthy Raj
SAFe® Fellow, SPCT & AI Native Trainer | Gladwell Academy India Pvt Ltd
Anand is now at the forefront of the next frontier of organisational change: the shift from Agile to AI-Native organisations. He was the first Indian certified as an AI Native Trainer by Scaled Agile, and brings a rare, multidisciplinary perspective shaped by studies in AI for Leadership at the Indian School of Business, Data Science and Machine Learning at IIT Delhi, and Design Thinking at Stanford University. As a speaker and facilitator, he is known for weaving together seemingly disparate worlds—Agile, AI, leadership, Lean, design thinking, and even lessons drawn from the Indian Armed Forces and mythology—into sessions that challenge conventional thinking and inspire action. His central message resonates across industries and audiences: transformation isn't about changing what organisations do, but about changing how they think, lead, and create value—making him an exceptional voice for any forum exploring the future of leadership and organisational excellence.
