Summary

A lot could possibly go right with our AI future according to venture capitalist, entrepreneur, and bestselling author, Reid Hoffman. The LinkedIn co-founder joins On Leadership to discuss his new book, Superagency, emphasizing the importance of embracing a “technohumanist compass” as we all aim to more effectively leverage technology in business. Reid argues that AI is not here to replace people, but to augment and empower them. He encourages people to proactively learn how to integrate AI tools into their work to stay adaptive and competitive. As a leader, Reid suggests that key competencies for the future will include nimbleness, continuous learning, and the ability to effectively integrate AI tools and technologies into individual, team, and organizational workflows. He believes this mindset shift is critical for companies and leaders to thrive amidst the coming technological changes.
