As companies strive to keep pace amid fluid market environments, many seek to instill new planning processes which can run continuously alongside execution efforts.

Leaders hope that these new processes will accelerate the speed at which organizations can alter strategic plans to better respond to emerging threats and opportunities.

However, recent Gartner research shows that many of the tactics used to enable continuous planning are in fact slow planning responsiveness.

In this webinar Brook Selassie (LinkedIn profile) Gartner VP Advisory, will reveal how the unintended consequences of continuous planning slow enterprise response, and how leaders can reimagine planning to better fit today’s fluid market conditions.

Discussion Topics:

• Understand how leaders can overcome the barriers of strategic planning
• Identify the core components of planning
• Discover how to keep the enterprise planning process on track and create an action plan

As the demand for artificial intelligence (AI) grows, so does the demand for AI talent. To find diverse AI talent, companies will need to look outside the usual technology talent hubs, such as the San Francisco Bay Area.

To identify the top hubs for AI talent, Bhaskar Chakravorti, (LinkedIn profile) Dean of Global Business at The Fletcher School at Tufts University, and his team at The Fletcher School have created a framework and compiled a ranking of the world’s top AI talent hubs.

In This interactive HBR webinar, Bhaskar will discuss the TIDE framework for ranking the world’s AI talent hotspots according to its talent pool, investments, diversity of talent, and evolution of the location’s digital foundations.

He will also highlight which cities are the top AI talent hubs across the globe and will share several implications from this analysis.

Chakravorti will touch on topics including:

• The world’s top 50 hubs for AI talent
• Why AI talent exists in a wide range of cities
• The dynamic AI landscape in the developing world
• How remote work is spreading AI talent more broadly
• Which markets support the most gender and racial diversity

As companies rush to hire AI talent, Chakravorti’s framework, analysis, and insights may help organizations better consider where to recruit top talent—far beyond the usual technology hubs.
