The no-nonsense podcast for Microsoft partners featuring discussions on challenges and opportunities in the Microsoft channel.
On this week’s episode of The Hot Seat Podcast, Marie Wiese is joined by Steven Settle, Managing Partner at Ryse Technologies.
Marie and Steven sit down to discuss why 95% of AI projects fail—and how Ryse helps clients be part of the successful 5%, what it really means to be a Microsoft Frontier Partner (beyond just selling Copilot licenses), and how a problem-first, process-driven approach leads to faster, more impactful AI transformation.
Tune in for an episode that cuts through AI hype and gets to the heart of how Microsoft partners can drive lasting business value.
