Executive Staffing Solutions’ Post

Innovation is nothing without trust and to truly leverage the potential of AI, we must first understand how it fits within an organizations' vision for the future.

You can’t build trust with Artificial Intelligence (AI) until you build trust in AI. People Leaders are uniquely positioned to help build trust in AI in organizations. Here’s why! Interesting read to start your day! :) #DataScience #AI #GenAI #Foodforthoughts #Think

I am tempted to ask about the 20% of executives who don't expect #AI to significantly impact their businesses, but we'll save that for another day. I liked the #wharton article, but only a bit, because it misses the biggest category of corporate readiness: Tech Delivery. The article has a category called Execution, but it's couched in management speak. Leading Change — Guiding and enabling a fundamental change in ways of working and operating with AI Integrating Teams — Integrating cross-functional teams and diverse skillsets to successfully execute AI initiatives Developing Talent — Developing employees and teams capable of fully leveraging AI to transform their own work Scaling Impact — Scaling the impact of AI initiatives through a repeatable productization and support model The reality is that #AI #ML radically changes Technology Delivery as a discipline through #Strategy, #Design, #UX, ...Architecture, #Test, #DevOps... it all changes, because the software paradigm has changed. Software becomes non-deterministic. The starting sentence of the article underlines just how corporations may struggle with this level of technology change: "Back in 2019, most leaders were still grappling with advancing digital transformation in their organizations and shifting towards being “digital-first” in order to stay competitive." Just imagine the challenge in becoming what #Infosys calls an AI-First Organisation. Ok, it's a marketing catch phrase, but it underlines the level of change that's required.

Useful framing for some orgs/boards to ask better questions:

The Gen AI opportunity is here, and businesses need to seize it or risk getting left behind. The imminent threat is not people being replaced by AI but being outpaced by those who fully embrace its potential. And the same goes for companies; the organisations that sit and wait for others to act first risk losing their competitive edge.

Although I love this article and acknowledge the potential of Gen AI for enterprises let’s not forget what Abraham Maslow wrote in 1966, "If the only tool you have is a hammer, it is tempting to treat everything as if it were a nail." Every day I still see numerous examples where optimizing basic processes will create as much value as any AI initiative. Often even with much shorter timeframes. The issue is that everyone wants to be part of the new shiny stuff and not the latter. So make sure you stimulate, motivate, recognize and reward people within your organisation to focus on both .
