Human-AI Strategy & Transformation
Description
Dr Laura Weis leads human-AI strategy in WPP's technology team, an unusual crossover from her earlier role running talent innovation in HR, with a PhD in organisational psychology behind it.
Her argument is one every people leader should hear: AI amplifies whatever a team already is. Drop it onto a healthy, well-structured team and it multiplies value; drop it onto a struggling one and it just makes more noise. So the real work is to redesign the work itself, and the culture around it, before you roll out tools.
At aiblLIVE she'll make the case for designing around human strengths rather than chasing raw efficiency. A thoughtful, people-first counterweight to the tools-first rush.
