As AI continues to transform workplaces, the real challenge for leaders is to unlock the potential it brings by using the time AI frees up wisely. In a recent WorkLab podcast, Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic, Chief Talent Scientist at Manpower Group and professor of business psychology, highlights three key takeaways for leaders: 1️⃣ Reimagine Value Creation: AI boosts efficiency, but smart leaders should focus on how to leverage that saved time. It’s about empowering teams to rethink how they add value rather than just filling the time with more tasks. 2️⃣ Coachability is Key: Leadership in the AI era requires adaptability. The leaders who will excel are those open to learning, feedback, and improvement—focusing on future potential over past performance. 3️⃣ AI as a “Microwave for Ideas”: AI can speed up routine tasks, allowing us to focus on more creative, meaningful work. It’s a tool to amplify human potential, not replace it. How are you investing the time AI gives back? #AI #Leadership #FutureOfWork #DigitalTransformation #HumanAI
