“We’re not moving at the speed of business anymore… it’s the speed of AI.” - Roderick Jefferson

AI isn’t coming - it’s already reshaping enablement. The ones embracing it are already shipping more, faster, and proving their value in real time.

💥I sat down with Roderick Jefferson. Yes, Roderick Jefferson (Author of Sales Enablement 3.0 & OG of modern enablement) to talk about what this shift means, and how enablers can leverage AI to stay ahead of the game.
We covered:

✅ Why old-school enablement tactics won’t survive the AI era - and how to fix it

✅ Why “prompting” is becoming a core enablement skill

✅ How to turn fragmented seller data into one source of truth that drives decisions

✅ The 6 ways AI is reshaping the GTM productivity and profitability flywheel

“If you can’t tie what you do to business impact, you’ll be the first one asked to leave. ROI isn’t a luxury, it’s survival.” - Ruchi Saini

Most enablement teams in India are doing a lot.

The question isn’t “Are we doing enough?” It’s: “Are we doing what matters to impact revenue?”

I sat down with Ruchi Saini (Whatfix, RES India) to talk about what enablement needs to get right in 2025 - especially in India, where headcount pressure, AI, and a lack of clarity on how to confidently communicate ROI are all hitting at once.

We covered:

✅ Why enablement in India is still seen as a support function, not a strategic driver

✅ How failing to speak the language of leadership puts careers and budgets at risk

✅ Why AI is replacing low-value tasks—and what enablers must do to stay relevant

✅ The hard question every enabler must ask: Would the business care if my team disappeared tomorrow?
