Leadership in the Era of AI Keynote
Courage at Scale: Building Teams That Breakthrough in the Age of AI
Sarah Robb O’Hagan | Keynote Speaker on the Human Opportunity with AI, Peak Performance In The Workplace, and Driving Transformational Change
Culture Isn’t a Perk. It’s Your Competitive Edge in the Age of AI.
Artificial Intelligence is rewriting the rules of work. Algorithms are faster. Machines are smarter. Data is limitless. And soon — every company will have access to the same vast AI computing power. Right now, as companies move fast to eliminate rote roles to gain efficiency, AI is proving to be a powerful enabler of productivity. On the flip side, there are few examples of AI creating new growth or revenue through new offerings, ideas and breakthroughs.
And that’s the paradox: instead of differentiation, AI risks creating sameness. The companies that stand out won’t be those with the best tech, but those with the most courageous and intuitive leadership—able to imagine offerings we don’t yet know we need and bring instinct to decision making. After decades of technology driving work culture, we’re entering an era where human skills will drive real growth.
In this high-energy keynote, Sarah Robb O’Hagan — transformational CEO, author of Extreme You and cultural change-maker — will share her research and insights around what it will take to build organizations that thrive in an AI-saturated world by doubling down on distinctly human skills that can drive corporate differentiation: courage, intuition, creativity, and energy management.
