Alan Araujo is a global leadership speaker focusing on both leadership and brand development. He combines Harvard Business School training with real-world success as founder of Lux MedSpa Brickell. His three speaking pillars—AI for Customer Experience, Leadership in the AI Era, and Building Brands That Scale—address both leadership excellence and brand growth strategies.

Alan Araujo has developed five signature frameworks: The 5 AI Failure Modes (common mistakes businesses make with AI), Frequency-Value Framework (deciding what to automate vs. protect), AI Factory Model (building AI as infrastructure), Trust vs. Accuracy (balancing AI efficiency with human connection), and Human Skill Curve (which skills become more valuable as AI advances).

The 5 AI Failure Modes identifies how businesses fail with AI: (1) Fear and Avoidance—ignoring AI entirely, (2) Blind Trust—accepting AI output without review, (3) Cost-Cutting vs. Value-Creating—using AI to reduce headcount instead of elevate experience, (4) Garbage In, Garbage Out—poor inputs producing poor outputs, and (5) Automating Sacred Moments—removing humanity from high-value customer interactions.

The Frequency-Value Framework helps businesses decide what to automate. Tasks are mapped on two axes: frequency (how often) and value (customer impact). High-frequency, low-value tasks should be automated aggressively. Low-frequency, high-value moments should be protected fiercely and never automated. This framework prevents businesses from automating the wrong things.
