What You will Gain from the Forum
Drawing from his acclaimed new book, RE-HUMANIZE: How to Build Human-Centric Organizations in the Age of Algorithms, Professor Puranam will address the strategic dilemmas facing today’s senior leaders — especially those navigating digital transformation at scale.
Key takeaways include: • Rethinking ROI in the Age of AI Why the true value of AI lies not in automation alone — but in how well it unlocks human capability, drives innovation, and avoids the costly failures of misaligned transformation. • Designing Organisations Where Humans and Algorithms Co-Lead Practical approaches to structure, process, and decision-making that empower teams and elevate AI as a strategic partner — not a threat. • Leading Through Complexity Without Losing Trust How to communicate change, sustain culture, and maintain credibility as algorithms shift how people work, decide, and collaborate.
This forum is not about theory – it is about arming executives with frameworks and insights they can act on immediately, backed by Professor Puranam’s global experience advising top-tier companies. ________________________________________________________________________________
