Manage episode 431392000 series 3577531
Can AI really tackle the complexities of leadership? Discover the hidden challenges and evolving strategies of modern leadership in our latest episode of the Relatively Relevant AI Podcast. We promise you’ll gain key insights into the shifting balance between metrics and people management, especially in an AI-powered workplace. Join us as Lisa Schneer and Lori unpack the struggles leaders face when they're promoted for their individual contributions rather than their managerial prowess.
In redefining what it means to be a leader for the future, we delve into the nuance of having sincere, authentic conversations without framing them as conflicts. Learn why relying on outdated metrics could be leading your team astray and hear personal anecdotes on navigating tough situations, like firing employees in ways that ultimately benefit them. With the integration of AI, we discuss the shift from order-taking to critical thinking roles and highlight how organizations need to adapt their metrics for success and reevaluate their promotion and compensation strategies.
Imagine a world where AI takes over routine managerial tasks, allowing managers to focus more on coaching and empathy. We critique the pitfalls of promoting only high-performing individual contributors to management roles and explore a new compensation model that reflects employees' variable engagement and circumstances. Finally, we emphasize the importance of building trust, avoiding micromanagement, and fostering creative problem-solving, particularly in remote work environments. Tune in to understand how to create purpose-driven workspaces and lead effectively in today's dynamic world.
