Forgiveness, Growth, And Reinvention In The Age Of AI E190
I just finished a long meeting with 15 senior HR leaders in Silicon Valley, so in the context of AI, I discuss the themes of forgiveness, growth, and leadership these organizations are facing.
And these issues are acute right now. 2025 is shaping up to be a “Year of Redesign” throughout business, and as we do this we have to rethink about how we think about people. Are we ready to support, forgive, and help our people adapt? Leadership trust is at an all time low, so we definitely have some work to do.
I also describe how Satya Nadella embraces this idea of continuous growth as a very senior leader.
I also discuss the growing value of “Vertical AI” solutions and how they will complement and add value in a world of large AI providers, and give you a sense of where I believe the AI market is going.
Takeaways:
- Forgiveness and growth are essential for business transformation.
- Personal reinvention is part of embracing AI.
- Company skills strategies may fail if people don’t feel safe and empowered.
- Vertical AI solutions will outperform horizontal solutions.
- “Always learning” is a necessary part of building a high-performing company.
