Generative AI is changing how we work, create, and lead-but for many professionals, it still feels like hype, confusion, and inconsistent results.

The Savvy Guide for Generative AI Beginners is a clear, human-centered roadmap for navigating this transformation with strategy, clarity, and confidence.

Whether you're a professional trying to stay relevant, a leader upskilling your team, or a marketer, creative, or strategist wondering how to use AI without losing your voice-this book meets you where you are and gives you the tools to go further.
