The impact of Digital Transformation on Leadership is a hot topic, driven by innovations and disruptions in technology and largely shaped by the advances in Artificial Intelligence (AI).

According to a 2019 study by Oracle and the research firm Future Workplace, 64% of workers would put their trust in a robot rather than their manager.

This startling statistic emphasizes the rising mistrust that workers feel for their managers and emphasizes how important it is for managers to develop into true leaders, capable of navigating the opportunities and challenges that AI presents.

Hence, it is critical for leaders to adapt and change as Artificial Intelligence permeates the modern workplace if they want to stay relevant.

Technology can transform many things including leadership, as history shows.

Historically, three distinct periods emerge when the study technological breakthroughs. At these junctures, interplay between technology and leadership mandated different leadership styles and attributes. These transitions did not replace leadership, but played a strong role in re-shaping leadership.

Even though it is tempting to assume that Artificial Intelligence can improve everything from productivity to brand loyalty, leadership requires conscious introspection on topics ranging from individual leader’s mindset (mental models) to organizational constructs (strategy, design, etc.).

Often, we fail to attribute due credit to leadership and the role it plays in technological breakthroughs. Retrospective into technological revolutions demonstrates that technology is a byproduct of leadership.

Today’s era of Artificial Intelligence requires new leadership thinking, life-long learning and regenerative models. Leaders who want to succeed in this age should consciously balance the delicate interplay between their “artistic side” comprising of the entire battery of human emotions and the “architect side” comprising of the range of Artificial Intelligence tools to compensate, complement, and conquer our finite nature.

Leaders need a framework to consider how they can deploy technology to practice the art of leading, whilst considering the inhibitors that prevent them from leading.

This framework will also provide a toolbox to appraise our reliance on Artificial Intelligence to execute such difficult tasks as exercising independent judgment and decision—making – the very activities that impart meaning and raison d’être to the leader’s existence.

Delivering higher-value projects in increasingly shorter timeframes sustains competitiveness.

Challenges exist at every turn; risk must be understood and mitigated, and problems recognized and solved quickly.

Adaptive reasoning and problem-solving skills have become increasingly important in project management, where decisions based on sometimes sparse, voluminous, or contradictory data must be dealt with, verified and conveyed to a diversity of team members – often under stressful, time-sensitive circumstances.

In such situations, project managers’ ability to update their mental models precisely, draw valid conclusions, and effectively deploy response through team members is critical.

This presentation discusses how advancements in adaptive reasoning and problem-solving skills resulting from the development of structured approaches to innovation are changing perceptions of project deliverables (time, quality, cost, risk management, et al).

Presenter: Dana W. Clarke, Sr. (LinkedIn profile) President/CEO of Applied Innovation Alliance LLC, specializes on the advancement and practical application of Structured Innovation and TRIZ (The Theory of Inventive Problem Solving).  Author of TRIZ: Through the Eyes of an American TRIZ Specialist & 40 Principles: TRIZ Keys to Innovation [Extended Edition]  His expertise encompasses the practical applications, consulting, facilitation and training of methodologies and business practices. As an expert in Strategic Planning, Competitive Intelligence, Business Process Innovation, Quality Function Deployment, and TRIZ.
