Dr. Mo Razaghi
Helps teams make AI land, from transformation readiness to AI-enabled ways of working.
Mo Razaghi works from a conviction he keeps returning to: that AI creates real value only when it is used responsibly, and that the responsibility comes from experts and from partnerships among leading institutions.
Mo earned his PhD in management of technology at EPFL, where, from 2012 to 2016, he researched how technology can carry genuinely transformational learning rather than content delivered at a distance. It was also from EPFL that he co-created and ran a global executive master's programme, with an unusual coalition of partners: the World Bank, UN-Habitat, BCG, Veolia, Swiss Post, and Schneider Electric, alongside universities in the United States, Hong Kong, Türkiye, Germany, and Mexico. From 2018 to 2021 he was head of impact initiatives at IMD Business School. His first training was in industrial engineering, with an MBA alongside the doctorate.
He is a recognised thought leader on AI in leadership and organisational transformation, who has published and co-published work with reputable institutions, among them the University of St. Gallen Executive School. His instinct has always been to build. His work has led to several products in EdTech and applied AI, recognised with the Training Magazine Network Choice Awards in 2022, 2023, and 2024, and with a place in the Swiss EdTech Collider.
What Mo helps with
Mo works with chief executives and their teams. His work in organisational AI readiness helps a leadership team see how ready it really is, by reading the organisation across the dimensions that decide whether AI lands or stalls, then setting a roadmap and the governance to hold it. His work in learning and human-resources transformation helps a development programme reach every leader, by putting AI to work on scale, languages, and cadence while keeping the human judgment that makes it stick. He is most useful to a leader who wants to put AI to work responsibly: someone who can read where the field is heading and turn it into a practical, well-governed way to act now.
