Are Layoffs The Only Way To Make AI Transformation Happen?
This week I discuss this ongoing trend of layoff announcements, typically coupled to “AI.” And as you’ll hear, this is quite a complex topic which gets into company culture, labor relations, and ultimately long term business strategy.
A new article in The Economist claims that “Europe Crushes Innovation” because of its old-fashioned labor rules. The point they make, which I discuss, is that forcing companies to “hold on” to workers stunts growth and innovation. While I can’t argue with the data, I believe it’s not that simple. So listen to this podcast and see if our “Dynamic Organization” model makes more sense.
You can explore all the dynamics in this podcast by getting Galileo®, the world’s AI assistant for HR and Leadership. Galileo can assess your company in this area of maturity and give you essential action-items to help with your own team or company’s AI transformation. (Prompt: “my company is xyz, we’re in industry abc, our business issues are xxx, would you benchmark me against the dynamic organization research and help me identify the leadership, management, and HR practices I need to accelerate my AI transformation?”)
Anyway listen in, I’d love your comments.
