SPEAKER FLIGHT DELAYS, SEE SESSION TUESDAY AT 2:00 PM - Reclaiming Next: What if Technology Forced us to be More Human?
SEE SCHEDULE FOR TUESDAY AT 2:00 PM
AI will rewrite the rules of performance, redirecting capacity to unlock new levels of innovation, creativity, and complexity. Sure, AI is the defining technology of our generation, but it won't define our generation. People will. After all, everything that will make or break the success of AI is fundamentally human: Acceptance, transparency, and cultural clarity. The leaders who cultivate these elements will find that their AI-enabled performance has no limits.
Learning Objectives:
- Hear how AI inherently opens capacity for employees to direct their focus to novel things.
- As tech strategy and governance is expected to grow significantly through 2026, learn how AI can (and should) play a role.
- From a leadership perspective, understand how to humanize AI for employees, and cultivate an environment of trust, transparency and acceptance.
