Focus Is a Strategy: Redefining Focus in the AI Age

"You can do anything, but you can't do everything." That old adage has never felt more relevant, or more insufficient. In the AI age, the sheer volume of possibilities has exploded. It's never been easier to imagine, prototype, and ship. Every week brings a new capability, a new feature, a new threat, or a new opportunity. And for product and innovation leaders, that makes focus feel almost impossible. But the problem isn't just the volume of opportunity. It's the definition of focus itself.

The Future of Service Firms in the Age of AI: Why Relationships, Strategy, and “Brains” Will Be the Moat

We're entering a new era of service delivery.

What remains is the work that demands judgment, taste, relationships, and a deep understanding of where the world is heading, not just where it’s been. At LCA, we believe the future of service firms lies in redefining what it means to serve—not by being faster or cheaper, but by being smarter, more thoughtful, and relentlessly human.
