About Matt Keane
I bridge three worlds that rarely connect: Fortune 500 executive leadership, academic research, and hands-on technical practice.
Current roles:
- Chief Data and AI Officer
- Professor of Data Science and Analytics at Southern New Hampshire University
- AI Researcher exploring frontier capabilities
Why I write:
Over 20+ years in Fortune 500 transformation, I’ve watched companies pay what I call “the alignment tax”—the hidden cost of misalignment between business strategy and technical execution. In the AI era, this tax has become existential.
My upcoming book, The Last Paradigm: Leadership at the Speed of AI, explores how organizations can eliminate this tax and build competitive advantage.
What you’ll find here:
Weekly frameworks on organizational transformation, insights from Fortune 500 operations, and AI research translated for business leaders.
Background:
- 20+ years Fortune 100/500 experience (primarily financial services)
- MS Computer Engineering, Boston University
- BS Organizational Leadership & Global Commerce, SNHU
