Generative AI's Impact on Leadership
- Generative AI, unlike the internet, augments human capabilities by changing how we think.
- It's crucial for leaders to adapt and learn how to be augmented or risk becoming irrelevant.
Future-Back Thinking
- Adopt "future-back" thinking by envisioning a desired future state and working backward.
- Avoid noisy present-forward thinking, which hinders clear future predictions.
Scalable Foresight
- Foresight is about exploring multiple possibilities, not predicting a single future.
- Scalable foresight empowers teams to become future sensors, enhancing organizational resilience.
