Companies are leaning on their best people to lead the AI charge. A Wellhub executive explains why that strategy could backfire—and what HR is doing about it.
The most exhausting thing is that, in a number of technology spaces, there is a new development every 6 months that forces teams to scramble. And very few organizations have found a way to train people about the new advances and how they will impact their jobs.
It’s either changing a core operational workflow, changing whether your customers are staying / migrating to a different product, changing the roadmap, etc.
So many businesses don’t even need to be on the bleeding edge, but some overzealous middle managers are trying to make a name for themselves or have drunk the Kool aid trying to force every thing they see on linked in down the line.

Don’t forget about execs and board members who think AI is a good ways to squeeze more money out of a company.
