About the event
Today, words are easier than ever to produce and harder than ever to believe. As organizations and individuals race to adopt AI, they focus on efficiency and productivity. However, not enough leaders are asking about the impact on trust. In this talk, Harvard lecturer Allison Shapira explores the growing “believability gap” facing leaders in the age of AI. Drawing from her new book, AI FOR THE AUTHENTIC LEADER: CLOSING THE BELIEVABILITY GAP IN THE AGE OF AI, she will share strategies for harnessing AI without sacrificing credibility. You’ll leave with a framework for communicating with greater authenticity and clarity, building trust in an era of uncertainty, and guiding your organization or country through rapid change with courage and humanity.
