About AI REIMAGINED:
After 25+ years of experience in data science, AI strategy, and organizational leadership, Dr. Charlie Apigian has developed a systematic approach to helping leaders navigate the overwhelming world of AI. AI Reimagined provides leaders at all levels with the proven VISTA Framework to transform from overwhelmed and confused to confident and empowered.
“We need to start using AI - but have no idea where to start.”
This is the question Dr. Charlie Apigian hears more than any other from leaders navigating today's AI landscape. They're drowning in options, starving for direction, and paralyzed by the fear of getting it wrong. AI Reimagined provides the answer.
Unlike the fear-based narratives dominating the AI conversation, this book offers a calm, strategic, and deeply human approach to transformation. Dr. Apigian introduces the VISTA framework—a five-step process that helps organizations move from confusion to clarity:
Vision: Create an AI vision statement and measurable objectives that align with who you are
Identification: Discover and document AI use cases that solve real problems
Strategy: Align, translate, and prioritize your AI initiatives
Technology: Turn problems into technical solutions—not the other way around
Assessment: Design for evaluation, monitoring, and continuous improvement
The key insight? Most companies start with technology and ask, "How can we use this?" But that's backwards. AI Reimagined shows you how to start with your vision and ask, "What problems do we need to solve?"
This book is for senior leaders and business professionals who want to stop being overwhelmed by AI and start using it to enhance what matters most—your people, your customers, and your mission. Because at the end of the day, AI isn't about replacing human tasks. It's about reimagining them.
What You'll Learn:
Why starting with technology is the biggest mistake leaders make
The five things AI can actually do well: inform, guide, recommend, act, and optimize
How to choose your first AI use case for maximum impact and minimum risk
Real-world case studies of companies that transformed through strategic AI implementation
How to create your own personal AI roadmap

What they are saying!
“In the new reality of AI, there are many purported experts. Dr. Apigian is an actual expert, who saves the buzz words and lingo for others. Rather, in plain, easy to understand english breaks down practical applications and uses of this emerging technology for humans to apply to their lives. A must read for the lifetime learners.”
Mark Montgomery - Entrepreneur and Chief Strategy Officer at VITLrx
“Excellent primer for both practitioners and leaders. The VISTA framework keeps human reasoning at the forefront while reimagining how work gets done in the age of AI.”
Tim Claytor - Business Analyst at State of Tennessee
“A refreshingly human guide to AI that actually makes sense. AI Reimagined is one of the rare books on AI and data that feels written for real leaders dealing with real constraints, not for technologists trying to impress other technologists.”
