Vice President and Principal Analyst at Forrester, researching the future of work and artificial intelligence.
We may not be heading for an imminent AI job apocalypse, but how organizations handle AI today will define more than just their future success. To navigate the complexity around the human and AI era, leaders must prioritize governance and invest in their people — treating AI not as a replacement for human talent but as a tool to enhance it.
