In a landscape of AI noise, relevance is everything. 360 Strategy helps Scottish SME leaders adopt AI with purpose, scanning for the structural leaks that cost you margin. We use our CHANGE framework to align culture before technology. From readiness audits to agentic deployment, we stop the loss and give your business a permanent edge.
Who is this for
-
Scottish SME leaders who want AI to reduce workload, improve margin, or remove customer friction.
-
Teams with growing "spreadsheet glue" and reporting churn.
-
Businesses where people are already using AI informally (Shadow AI) and you want control and confidence.
Who is this not for
-
Anyone looking for a tool recommendation without changing the process.
-
Teams that want to automate decisions without clear ownership and governance.
-
Teams that are not prepared to change how work is done, including roles, habits, and decision rights.
I found my session with Mark genuinely insightful and highly practical. He took the time to understand my platform, the challenges we’re working through, and where AI could realistically add value at this stage. His questions, structured thinking, and follow‑up summary helped bring clarity to our options and next steps around developing AI capability. It was time well spent, and I’d happily recommend Mark to other founders and leadership teams exploring AI in a thoughtful, pragmatic way. - Stuart Gillon, Founder, SIGR.app
