Community Keynote: Generating Innovation: Change Is Not Artificial, It Is Intelligent

Ginger Grant

One thing that is definitely true in the world we live in, the only thing constant is change. Technology is bringing new capabilities including AI, but some things do not change. When you are working in technology you don’t work for technology, you work for people. As industry professionals the skills we are learning enable us to enhance both our abilities and the effectiveness of our organizations. With AI accelerating technological changes, this reality has never been more true than today. Knowledge now translates directly into productivity, and embracing AI-driven disruption offers a unique chance to revolutionize organizational operations to our benefit.

Organizations need to understand both how to use the new technology while understanding how to value the people who work for them so that organizations can also continue to evolve. Organizations that stay doing business they way they always have may not be around in the future. It is important for them to learn how to value people.

Learning new skills has never been easier. This includes gaining a solid understanding of AI and applying it to enhance work quality and efficiency. We’ll explore how to start integrating AI into daily tasks and show how it boosts your career. Innovation provides opportunities for you and for the places where you work. Innovation requires people and people need to use it to be successful.
