The workshop builds on the observation that change is more complex than ever before: open, dynamic, networked, emergent, the very hallmarks of complex systems. Join us for a talk or workshop in which we will leverage cutting-edge ideas from complexity science to explore how to effect positive change in complex organizational systems that are increasingly incorporating Generative AI.

In today’s digital workplace, decisions are made with data. But modern, high-dimensional data can confound our evolved intuitions and, paradoxically, make decisions harder. Join us to learn the art and science of data-driven decision making in the age of Generative AI. Our Decision Making workshop is an interactive, practical introduction to the key skills of understanding meaning in data and how humans make decisions in partnership with machines.

Only a small fraction of companies get value from their AI/ML investment even after years of prototyping, infrastructure investment and strategy. Why? Because it’s all about how people learn and make decisions with machines and data. It should be easier but strong data-driven cultures don’t emerge, they are designed. We discuss why AI must be designed around how people learn and make decisions for it to deliver on its promise, and what to do about it.
