The short version
Craig Dickerson spent 18 years in enterprise consulting — 6 years at Deloitte advising C-suite executives, 12 years at Harvard Business Impact designing and delivering transformation programs for Fortune 500 organizations. His background is in operations and finance, which means he sees AI through the lens of process, systems, and measurable value — not through the lens of the most impressive demo.
He founded Fithian because he kept seeing the same gap: organizations that had access to powerful AI tools but couldn't figure out where those tools created real value, and teams that could use ChatGPT but couldn't think critically about what it produced.
Craig doesn't just advise on AI transformation. He runs the same systems he recommends — agent infrastructure, knowledge systems, automated workflows. The advice comes from practice, not theory.
