Business Edge Briefing: Thrive in the AI Era: Unleashing the Power of Human Connection & Creativity
This webinar zeroes in on the critical human capabilities needed in the workplace that Artificial Intelligence (AI) cannot replace, offering an island of sanity in the midst of this noisy, liminal space. These AI-proof capabilities -- the ability to care, connect, and co-create -- form the fundamental building blocks of your organization's culture and ways of working. Activating these behaviors will make the difference between teams that are primed to collaborate, innovate, and adapt and those who are not.
