The trio outline a vision for the future of AI in the workplace and provides guidance to business leaders on how to prepare. It will walk you through the Three Waves—from quick AI wins you can implement this year, to building an AI “Talent Manager,” and ultimately creating a workplace safety net for your people. Learn exactly how to partner with AI providers, align with compliance teams, and measure results—plus tips on avoiding “AI hype” and focusing on true human impact.
