POWER LUNCH: AI Readiness 2026 - The Human Advantage

Most leaders think they’re preparing for AI by testing tools, but without shared alignment, a clear purpose, and the right mindset, they’re actually increasing risk, not readiness.

In this high-value session, discover what real AI readiness looks like and why the future belongs to leaders who move intentionally, not just quickly.
 

You’ll learn how to:

• Align your leadership team before adopting tools.
• Reframe AI as a human advantage, one that saves time and strengthens culture.
• Understand where your organization stands using the Aigility Method™, a clarity-first framework for confident, values-led adoption.
• Explore how mindset shapes your ability to lead responsibly through change.

This isn’t about hype or hardware. It’s about leadership. Because in 2026, the strongest advantage won’t be technological, it will be human.
