genioux Foundational Fact:
The future of management is with an AI-savvy generation of business leaders who are curious, have little or no cognitive bias, and understand which organization design, processes, and resources are needed to unleash the power of data and machine learning.
genioux Facts:
AI is poised to impact jobs for managers and professionals, with those with college degrees more likely to be exposed to AI.
Workers in AI-exposed industries believe AI will help, not hurt.
Vittorio Cretella, CIO of Procter & Gamble, points out that the impact of AI will be felt across the entire organization, not just in expert roles such as data science or machine learning engineering. He argues that nearly all employees, regardless of their function, will need to become familiar with working alongside machines and leveraging their insights and recommendations.
This lighthouse extracts a block of 10 relevant facts from the golden knowledge article “Time to Redesign Your Career for The Age of Artificial Intelligence.”
genioux Fact 1. Vittorio Cretella, CIO of Procter & Gamble, doesn’t see AI as replacing human talent, but rather, amplifying those talents.
genioux Fact 2. “The continued rise of AI will change the type of work we do, and how we do it, but augmenting rather than replacing human capabilities,” he argues. “We will still need the skills of digitally-savvy, creative human employees who can work effectively with machines.”
genioux Fact 3. “The future of management is with an AI-savvy generation of business leaders who are curious, have little or no cognitive bias, and understand which organization design, processes, and resources are needed to unleash the power of data and machine learning.”
genioux Fact 4. “Technology alone does not change things – people do,” he emphasizes.
genioux Fact 5. AI, implemented successfully, “will amplify human skills, not simply substitute, or replace them,” says Cretella. “Key human-centric skills include curiosity, creativity, critical thinking, compassion and collaboration.”
genioux Fact 6. Where humans will make the greatest difference is in problem definition, he continues. This consists of “decomposing a problem through key questions and identifying patterns before attempting to define an algorithmic solution. We need leaders and teams to focus on that phase to develop inquisitive skills and dedicate enough time before skipping to solutions.”
genioux Fact 7. P&G’s approach is to “always start from the job to be done, whether is about maximizing media reach, improving manufacturing quality or defining the shelf layout for the best consumer shopping experience,” Cretella illustrates.
genioux Fact 8. “What matters is the capability to define the hypothesis and problems, the curiosity to explore data and the power of AI to find the answers.”
genioux Fact 9. For corporate leaders, the priorities of the AI age must shift to greater investments in “talent and upskilling employees while in-sourcing strategic capabilities such as data science and machine learning engineering,” Cretella advocates.
genioux Fact 10. This calls for a balancing act among managers and executives, who “must facilitate the combination of human and machine strengths, creating the organizational focus and culture that encourages continuous learning and the application of AI to improve business outcomes.”
