Evolving our human capacity to navigate AI-driven disruption

A community of practice for potential-focused leaders.

The challenge: deeper than a technical puzzle

Leaders across the globe are feeling it more and more each day: the pressure to keep up by integrating AI in our ways of working. 

How do we navigate this process effectively as an organization? What is required of us as leaders?

A basic premise we explore in our work together as a community of practice:

The transition to an AI-integrated future is deeper than a technical challenge. It requires new levels of human capacity, including deeper sources of meaning and motivation, increased levels of consciousness, and uniquely human capabilities that are now underdeveloped.

Developing this capacity enables us to effectively participate in a process of transformative change as leaders, teams, organizations, and communities. 

Keeping life in the loop: what makes us more than machines?

We don’t know what capabilities future AIs will possess. 

What we do know is that we have a critical role to play in the process of shaping the future. 

Will we create a future that values the well-being of living systems? 

Where we continue to have meaningful, value-adding roles to play?

Or one where the human experience becomes meaningless and hollow?

These are no longer fringe questions for a few philosophers to argue over. They are our questions to hold and explore. 

The front line of this work is how we as leaders are choosing to integrate technology and develop roles within our organizations.
