TEMPE, AZ –– Rhino Staging, a premier provider of live event production and staging services nationwide, today published Part I of a conversation with corporate and national leadership about the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) across its management and operational workflows. By equipping key personnel with advanced AI tools, Rhino is streamlining complex problem-solving, enhancing safety protocols, and accelerating strategic decision-making to better serve its clients and crews. See the interview at https://www.rhinostaging.com/ai-adoption-at-rhino-an-interview-part-i/.
Inspired in part by Geoff Woods’ book The AI-Driven Leader, Rhino’s leadership team has actively embraced AI as a critical business utility. The adoption allows the company to operate more dynamically, maintaining its position as a forward-thinking vendor of choice in a highly competitive, fast-paced industry.
"The productivity boost coming from having a virtual analyst and editor on my desktop has made me a believer," says Floyd Dillman, Board of Directors Advisory Committee for Rhino’s parent company, Program Productions. "I use it as a highly capable assistant to analyze financial reports, explore operational scenarios, and distill lengthy research into concise executive summaries for our leadership team. It allows us to move faster and bring well-founded strategies to the table."
While live event production remains fundamentally reliant on human expertise and physical execution, Rhino is utilizing AI to optimize the vital planning and safety mechanisms that happen behind the scenes.
"AI has been instrumental in helping communicate complex ideas, such as producing safety graphics that demonstrate, for instance, the force a road case can exert when striking an immovable object," says Boone Jackson, National Director of Safety at Rhino Staging. "It makes the time I spend researching solutions much more efficient. Once I learned how to use it as a tool, I found it actually helps me maintain my distinct voice rather than replacing it."
To avoid the pitfall of outsourcing critical thinking, Rhino emphasizes human oversight and data verification in its AI protocols and operates on a "trust but verify" basis.
