Using AI strategically

“As artificial intelligence evolves, we must remember that its power lies not in replacing human intelligence, but in augmenting it. The true potential of AI lies in its ability to amplify human creativity and ingenuity.” 
–  Ginni Rometty, the former CEO of IBM

Across industries, organizations are rewiring to capture value from generative AI (The State of AI, McKinsey), especially in tech. But here’s the kicker: While these large language models are evolving at breakneck speed, many leaders and their teams don’t yet fully understand how to use AI tools strategically.

Jim Perry and Richard Hodge, our thought leader partners at Harness Intelligence, are helping organizations do just that with ChangeLab, their transformative, hands-on workshop that taps into AI to fuel robust thinking and ideas for growth:

ChangeLab is an energizing one-day program built for leaders at all levels who are ready to seize the future. This isn’t about playing catch-up with change—it’s about charging ahead, getting in front of it, and shaping what’s next. Collaborative, hands-on, and packed with real work, ChangeLab delivers bold insights and actionable strategies for leaders who refuse to manage from behind.

We experienced the lab at our National Sales Meeting last month as Jim helped us envision how AI would transform our business and dream up some creative “artifacts from the future” —tools that currently exist only in our imagination— using some deep dives with generative AI to help us see the future more clearly.

Advantage Partner Kelvin Yao recently implemented the lab with one of his clients, a biotech company poised for global expansion for its innovations in oncology and inflammation. Jim and Richard joined Kelvin and the organization’s top 65 leaders in Boston for Rethink Now, Imagine Tomorrow, a ChangeLab experience that served as an inspirational catalyst for developmental alignment and collaboration. The result? They left with clear strategies, more connected teams, and the know-how to put generative AI to work in their role.

It’s no longer a question of if AI will fundamentally reshape your organization—it’s a matter of how prepared your people are. Start now.
