Overview
Some executives see AI as an opportunity to move faster. Others are concerned about the risks, costs and whether it will deliver real value.
As a data and AI leader, how do you move forward when your executive team is divided?
Join our next Virtual CDO Hub for an hour of open discussion with fellow senior data and AI leaders. We’ll explore how to challenge both enthusiasm and scepticism, build confidence and find a way forward. We’ll start with one provocative question: Is an overly enthusiastic executive team more dangerous than a sceptical one?
Expect shared experiences and practical ideas, all under the Chatham House Rule.
