‘I Think Therefore AI’ with Naveed R. Parvez.

In this week’s episode of Gut The System I am walking and talking with the wonderful Naveed R. Parvez.

I first met Naveed in a small town in Italy of all places, whilst we were on a walk, so it seems extremely fitting to be coming together again, on a walk around the majestic Regents Park.

This conversation comes at quite an important junction in this series. Over the last few episodes we have talked at length about systems thinking, about how to scale change in our current systems and why we need systems that considered the whole rather than individual parts. However, we haven’t discussed a more foundational and or philosophical positioning on what systems thinking is, which Naveed and I touch upon during the first part of this episode. Naveed, at his centre is a systems thinker and has a really talent for condensing and simplifying complex topics.

Also, in this episode we go into Naveed’s backstory as an entrepreneur and innovator in the healthcare sector. We discuss why innovation can be so hard to successfully deploy in the NHS, even when the results are an improvement on the status quo and why we need to make sure we use data in a impactful way.

Naveed has always been an innovator at the cutting edge of technology and we analyse how now he’s working with AI, to accelerate the pace of change. We haven’t spoken much about AI in this series so far but given the monumental change it will and is bringing, not only in the way we interact with each other day to day but also run businesses and how we reward value, it is important to pay it proper attention.

Speaking to Naveed, not just during this episode but throughout the time I’ve known him has been a series of eye-opening events for me. I greatly enjoying this walk and talk and I hope you do too!
