At a time where AI is transforming entire industries, leaders must navigate complex challenges and harness technology more effectively and urgently than ever before. This five-session, ten-hour program introduces practical tools and frameworks for leadership challenges that arise in today's complex business environments. Participants will learn to leverage AI alongside human systems to create competitive advantages. We examine what it takes for a leader to manage dynamic change, nurture ethical and effective AI-enabled teams, and to build an adaptable learning organization. Examples are drawn from case studies as well as participants’ own professional experiences.
Class meetings are conducted in a proprietary virtual classroom, Forum, which enables fully interactive learning, with instructor-led sessions designed based on principles from the science of learning. By applying new approaches and insights to their work while taking the course, participants gain an immediate and applied understanding of how to harness the power of AI alongside the power of their team(s) for their organizations to thrive today and in the future.
