    Seminar Overview:

    AI is a rapidly growing business trend, but it can be hard for organizations to develop a roadmap for AI adoption. In this webinar, we’ll discuss the excitement and fear around this technology and then we’ll jump into practical ideas for moving forward with AI from a leadership perspective. In the age of AI, every leader has the opportunity to form their own strategy around specific tools like generative AI and machine learning to empower their employees and better serve their customers. This webinar will provide leaders with a framework for developing a solid and mission-centric approach to AI adoption at their organization.
