OM DENNE EPISODE
Most leaders think adopting AI is about upgrading their technology.
The most successful leaders know it's about upgrading their people and culture.
In this episode, Will Linssen sits down with renowned behavioral scientist and author of The AI-Savvy Leader, David De Cremer, to unpack why the biggest challenge with AI isn't the tech—it's the fear and uncertainty it creates within teams. From why you shouldn't let your IT department lead the AI narrative, to the reason successful companies actually hire more people when adopting AI, to the revolutionary concept of "human AI-ization" — David shares the mindset shifts and practical moves leaders need to take back control and build trust.
