EXPOB202: AI Won't Make You a Better Leader
Researchers at UC Berkeley spent eight months watching a tech company adopt AI. The time it saved people went straight into more work. Leaders who manage to claim those hours back face a harder question: how should they use that time?
At VML, a global advertising agency of 26,000 people, Kelly Stuart-Johnson's team built an award-winning leadership development program called Hi. Managers rehearsed difficult conversations with Yoodli's AI roleplay, and the team measured two things at the same time: how confident the leaders felt, and how well they performed in those conversations. The numbers told different stories.
During this session, you will learn:
- Why training makes leaders confident long before it makes them competent
- How AI roleplay closes the gap
- What leaders can learn from AI about empathy
- How to use the time AI saves to become a better leader
