## Resource

Human-centered leadership aims to put people first by prioritizing empathy, inclusiveness and employee development. While the approach has roots in the early 20th century, it is still just gaining a foothold in a world where top-down management remains dominant. But now artificial intelligence is emerging as an effective tool for amplifying human-centered leadership. At the same time, human-centered approaches are proving to be the most effective way to encourage AI adoption that meets the goals of individual employees and the business as a whole. In this episode, we explore how an emerging type of "supermanager" blends savvy use of AI with human-centered leadership, and why developing supermanagers is essential in helping employees adapt to the massive changes brought about by AI. Featuring: Julia Bersin, Director of Research, The Josh Bersin Company In today's episode, we'll also cover: Why redesigning work around AI requires input from employees who are comfortable experimenting with the technology. Tips on training employees to become "superworkers" by using AI more effectively. AI tools supermanagers use in their own supervisory tasks.
