Guests: Chris Nolan & Michael Schindler
In their zealous rush to incorporate Artificial Intelligence, most corporate leaders are forgetting one thing: you.
Chris Nolan and Michael Schindler remind execs to remember humanness in their plans. AI may be a great time- and money-saving tool, but humans remain an important equation in the mix. A complete reliance on AI overlooks the nuances and insights humans bring to the table.
And, they warn, there’s one job that analysts already say AI may be able to do better than a human: CEO!
They share their research on AI and VUCA – and the human-conserving ways companies can navigate them -- with host Maureen Metcalf.
Here's what Chris, Michael, and Maureen cover:
- How AI is accelerating the exponential pace of VUCA (Volatility, Uncertainty, Chaos, and Ambiguity) in our lives;
- The ways AI is propelling change – but may not be as innovative as people think; and
- Why it’s so important for smart companies to keep humans at the center of work as AI grows more powerful.
