Stakeholder Whispering: How Bill Shander Turns Dead Dashboards into Decisions

Data storytelling expert Bill Shander, founder of Beehive Media, shows enterprise teams how to replace dead dashboards with clear visual narratives that align stakeholders and drive confident decisions from their data and AI investments. "The biggest challenge in data isn’t analysis—it’s knowing how to tell the story so stakeholders actually get what they need, not just what they asked for." — Bill Shander, Information Designer & Founder, Beehive Media

How Charlie Birch Turns Brand Identity into a Growth Engine

Brand strategist and Fractional Chief Brand Officer Charlie Birch, founder of Humaniz Collective, helps founders raise brands up right by treating them as living systems that need clear strategy, strong design, and consistent management to grow. Instead of leaving brand in the realm of “vibes,” her Brand IdQ™ framework turns identity into shared logic so teams can make on-brand decisions without routing every nuance back through the founder. "It’s absolutely possible for a brand to look and sound ‘on-brand’ in the marketplace and still be fundamentally misaligned internally in a way that erodes trust and undermines growth."

How Chris Daigle Turns Generative AI into a Chief AI Officer Playbook

Founder and Chief AI Officer Chris Daigle helps mid‑market executives move beyond “chatbot experiments” by installing an internal Chief AI Officer mindset and playbook across sales, finance, operations, and HR. Drawing on experience training over 10,000 non‑technical business professionals, he shows leaders how to think in AI, design the right pilots, and put guardrails in place so AI becomes a reliable part of SG&A, not a risky side project. "If you are still only using generative AI to write emails and summarize documents, you have barely scratched the surface of what it can do for your business."

Across all three features, one pattern repeats: tools aren’t the bottleneck—translation is. When stories, brand logic, and AI guardrails are explicit, stakeholders stop guessing and start deciding. The result is faster progress with fewer meetings and less rework.

💡 Final Thoughts

The next edition arrives Tuesday, continuing this theme of “translation as a superpower” for B2B leaders. Revisit today’s spotlight as you prioritize 2026 initiatives.

P.S. Reply with one “dead asset” in your business—a dashboard, deck, or pilot—you’d most like to see reborn as a decision engine.
