Group CRM Director · University Lecturer · Doctorate Candidate in AI in Business

I lead business transformation across operations, enterprise technology, product direction, data and AI. With 25+ years of experience, I connect business strategy, operating models and delivery priorities with the systems that make organisations work.

Portrait of Aydin Javanbakht
I believe the real value of technology lies not in its complexity, but in its ability to make organisations more effective, adaptable and intelligent.

Today, my interests lie in the changing relationship between people, business processes and intelligent systems, and in how artificial intelligence can reshape enterprise architecture, decision-making and business relationships.

Projects

Technical & Operational Case Study · September 2026

Generative CRM — Salesforce Headless 360 MCP

From fixed CRM screens to intent-driven enterprise interfaces

Proof of concept · Published case study

Traditional enterprise systems rely on predefined interfaces and workflows, which can limit adaptability. This proof of concept pairs a governed Salesforce backend with an AI-driven interface that responds to natural-language business intent, shaping an AI-driven Service Command Center around operational questions and live CRM context. It demonstrates how generative interfaces can add flexibility while enterprise security, permissions, sharing and operational governance remain authoritative.

Original Framework & Applied Concept

mCoreBrain™ / Monocentric Relationship Management

From business intent to an operating enterprise system

Research concept · Concept creator: Aydin Javanbakht

An original governance-first AI paradigm for moving from natural-language business intent to governed CRM/ERP/CX operating structures, rather than configuring enterprise systems screen by screen. Monocentric Relationship Management (MRM) defines the architectural paradigm; mCoreBrain™ is its autonomous cognitive nucleus. A business describes what it needs through text or voice, and the platform translates that intent into data structures, workflows, interfaces and business logic. Documented in the MRM and mCoreBrain™ concept paper listed under Research.
