About Sanjiv Sidhu
Sanjiv Sidhu, cofounder of o9, has spoken about the company's goal of helping corporations plan and react more efficiently in a volatile business environment. He described o9's approach as "AI-driven management," which he said involves artificial intelligence augmenting human intelligence to improve decision-making. Sidhu noted that the team behind o9 previously created the supply chain company i2, which he claimed "produced more value for corporations than all competitors put together," and said o9 aims to exceed that by achieving "10x the efficiency, 10x the speed, 10x reduction in value leakage, but also 10x happier people." Sidhu has also discussed the role of spreadsheets and tribal knowledge in corporate planning. He stated that with new AI technologies, o9 aims to reduce the time needed to digest spreadsheets and understand the reasoning behind their use, incorporating that knowledge into its platforms. In earlier appearances, Sidhu has addressed topics including the challenges of change management in large enterprises, the importance of decoupling intention from action in mindfulness practices, and his view that entrepreneurs often do not perceive themselves as risk-takers but rather as optimists who mitigate risk.
