External Keynote: Leadership in the AI era
-
Louise Opprud Jakobsen
Founder, Work Life Lab
AI represents a paradigm shift in how we work and create value, fundamentally redefining the importance of our skills. The World Economic Forum states that within five years, 44% of our current skills might become obsolete, putting creative, analytical, and technological skills to the top three essentials in the AI era. This shift forces us to reconsider our relevance and adapt our work, businesses, and workforce for the future.
In this keynote, we're going to tackle the crucial dilemmas leaders face when ethically embedding AI in their operations. How do we make sure AI's incorporation brings real, lasting and sustainable benefits?
