Discover the dynamic realm of Artificial Intelligence (AI) in this succinct session. We'll unravel its capabilities, navigate through its practical and ethical implications in the business world, and explore how to communicate its benefits. We'll discuss the concerns arising from using AI tools trained on public data, emphasizing the importance of mitigating biases and ensuring privacy. Dive into the essentials of crafting a robust AI policy that aligns with ethical and organizational standards. Dispel the myth of AI replacing employees, as we highlight its role as an assistant that augments human capabilities. Understand that the adoption of AI is a gradual journey, where employees progressively integrate AI tools into their workflows, enhancing productivity and fostering innovation.

As communications tactics becoming increasingly digital, the need to put people at the center of planning is more critical than ever. With new automation technology offering the potential to minimize the mundane, we have an opportunity to shift our focus to the most human aspects of our work. During this breakout, we’ll explore internal communications through the lens of relationships, including what makes each of us uniquely qualified to deliver effective and engaging messages to our audiences.

Brace yourself. By 2030, the U.S. could face a deficit of more than 6 million workers. Globally, that number could reach 85 million. Retaining your best people and creating a talent magnet will be critical. Winning the competition will take a profound shift in prioritizing the employee experience–from measuring employee engagement in real-time to expecting more from technology to prioritize communication, connection, and community. Together we will talk about how to prepare.

With a day, or two if you joined us in the workshops, under your belt you might be feeling a bit overwhelmed.

Together we will recap yesterday's top takeaways and set the stage for this final day of learning.

Your team is what makes your company run – without engaged team members, you're going nowhere. How do you reignite engagement in a workforce following years of frequent COVID-19 communications? Give them a variety of content and communications vehicles – meet your team where they are and speak to them on their terms. Team members want to be in the know and they like the spotlight to occasionally shine on them. Get their attention through compelling content and drive them to your digital platforms. Now you have an audience to communicate important, company-wide information. The best content is organic content – for our team, by our team. Keep introducing new initiatives where your team can actively participate in the discussion.
