Human-Centric AI Leadership: Paul Gibbons on the "Great Collisions" of Agency & Algorithms
How do we lead with soul in a world run by code? In this episode, we explore the concept of Human-Centric AI Leadership with renowned strategist Paul Gibbons. We dive deep into his framework of the "Great Collisions"—the friction points where human agency, empathy, and algorithmic decision-making meet in the modern workplace.
Paul discusses why the rise of AI doesn't mean the end of human influence, but rather a call to strengthen our uniquely human capabilities. If you are a leader or professional trying to navigate the shift toward automation without losing the "human touch," this conversation provides the ethical and practical roadmap you need.
