Strategic People Leadership and Organisational Performance
Develop the skills to become a strategic people leader. Connect HR strategy to organisational performance. Build commercial influence.
Work out where digital workers fit, what they should handle, and how to manage them properly.
Most organisations are somewhere in limbo between informal AI use and widescale operational adoption. Tools are being tested and workarounds are appearing, while senior leaders are asking what can be handed over, what still needs human judgement, and where the actual value sits.
PwC found that 79% of companies say AI agents are already being adopted, while McKinsey reports that 62% of organisations are at least experimenting with them. In Ireland, PwC found that 70% of organisations plan to increase AI-related budgets, but only 9% report broad adoption.
That leaves many managers in an awkward position. They are expected to make sensible decisions about where AI fits in workflows and teams, but often without a clear framework for doing it.
This two-day programme is designed to solve that problem. Participants work through their own business context, identify where digital workers could take on useful work, build working examples in a guided lab, and develop a practical plan for how people and digital workers should operate together.
Every programme in our full suite of short programmes can be delivered exclusively to your staff. If you have 10 or more participants for a specific programme, we can partner with you to deliver it on our campus or at a location of your choice.
