The AI-Augmented Leader

L'intelligence artificielle va radicalement changer notre façon de travailler. Mais elle ne changera pas notre façon de diriger. Alors que la révolution de l'IA progresse et que les employés font l'expérience d'un mélange d'acceptation, de peur, d'excitation et de méfiance, les meilleurs dirigeants adopteront la technologie et maîtriseront les qualités fondamentales du leadership humain.

Le leader humain assisté par l'IA

Adopter l'IA et
doubler les ressources humaines

AI can be like an exoskeleton for the mind and heart of a human leader. It can strengthen our cognitive powers, allowing us to process vast amounts of information swiftly and make good decisions. AI can help deepen our understanding of employees and team dynamics, encouraging diverse thinking and psychologically safe environments.

However, as great as AI can be, alone it cannot make us better leaders. Relying only on AI, without doing the inner work of human development would be like buying a top-of-the-line Ferrari while ignoring our driving skills.

To get the best from AI, we need to equally invest in the development of our human potential. Alone, neither is sufficient. Both are necessary. 

Adopter l'IA, mais développer les qualités humaines

Le domaine de l'IA par rapport aux activités humaines : D'une part, vous pouvez vous demander dans quelle mesure vous pouvez tirer parti de l'IA. D'autre part, vous pouvez vous demander dans quelle mesure vous devez tirer parti de votre humanité.

AI-Augmented Leader Model

The AI Augmented Leader is a both/and leader who brings the best of both human and machine to their leadership practice. This work begins with the three core human qualities of awareness, wisdom, and compassion.

AI-augmented leaders are superior at both providing context and identifying AI content that is relevant to their goals. They are excellent at both asking insightful questions and wisely discerning the answers provided by AI. And they are masters at both leading with heart and leveraging people insights from AI algorithms.
Awareness is the perceptual capacity of the mind to observe internal and external experiences. Awareness helps us to know who we are, what we are doing, and what we are experiencing, and to interact with our environment in effective ways.
Wisdom is the discerning capacity of the mind to form sound judgment by understanding reality as it is, free of the limitations of ego. Wisdom is not about being smart or having knowledge. It is the ability to make good decisions about situations and people—including ourselves.
Compassion is the responsive capacity of the mind to provide genuine care, with the intention of being of benefit to others and contributing to the greater good. With compassion, we understand and empathize with the emotional states of others and takes an active interest in alleviating or reducing their struggles.
Awareness and AI:
Context + Content


Leaders can leverage AI for content they would never be able to access easily without AI. Then through awareness, they put that content into the broader context of the world in which that information exists. AI brings vast amounts of information, and leaders with awareness bring interpretation, values, and ethical considerations for a powerful combination of insight and vision.
Wisdom and AI:
Questions + Answers


AI excels at providing answers based on amounts of information far surpassing human reach. In doing so, it can challenge our thinking and spur our creativity. But it’s up to leaders to apply wisdom to the answers – to question where they came from and where they lead to. Only leaders have the cognitive, social, and emotional intelligence to move from answers to wise choices.
Compassion and AI:
Heart + Algorithm


AI can greatly contribute to a leaders’ understanding of the interplay of human dynamics in the workplace. But that’s only an input into compassion. Compassion is felt and experienced by employees when leaders demonstrate the uniquely human ability to lead with heart – to bring a genuine desire to support and guide and to contribute positively to the lives of employees, customers, and the broader community.

Dernières recherches

Nous avons interrogé plus de 600 employés dans plusieurs secteurs d'activité pour comprendre leur point de vue sur l'intelligence artificielle et le leadership. Les niveaux de confort sont en hausse avec l'IA, mais les employés veulent et apprécient toujours des leaders centrés sur l'humain.

Nous avons constaté des niveaux élevés de confiance dans l'IA lorsqu'il s'agit de stratégie et de prise de décision. 65 % des personnes interrogées se disent "plutôt" ou "tout à fait" confiantes dans la capacité de l'IA à élaborer une stratégie.  

En outre, les personnes interrogées se disent à l'aise avec l'idée que l'IA puisse jouer un rôle dans l'analyse de leurs performances et l'optimisation de leurs actions et de leurs décisions. 43 % sont "d'accord" ou "tout à fait d'accord", et 23 % sont "neutres" sur ce sujet.

De manière assez surprenante, 45 % des personnes interrogées ont indiqué qu'elles se sentaient "plutôt" à "extrêmement" à l'aise pour recevoir un retour d'information sur les performances par l'IA, à condition qu'il s'agisse d'un retour d'information positif.

Cependant, lorsqu'il s'agit de recevoir des commentaires négatifs sur les performances, seuls 25 % des répondants seraient "plutôt" à "extrêmement" à l'aise pour recevoir des commentaires négatifs sur les performances professionnelles s'ils étaient générés par l'IA. 55 % seraient "plutôt" à "extrêmement" mal à l'aise.  

Think You Are Open to AI?
Think Again

If we are being honest, we may feel nervous about AI – of not grasping what’s new, of being outrun by those “smarter” than us, or being seen as old-school by those whom we lead.

In the face of these fears, our instinct may be to protect our ego and ignore the shifts around us. The better answer for ourselves and those we lead?

Adopting a beginner’s mind full of curiosity and an openness to new ways of thinking and doing.

According to our research, leaders who adopt a beginner’s mind towards AI can bolster the well-being and commitment of their teams by 25% or higher.

How AI Can Make Us Better Leaders

As great as AI can be, it cannot make us better leaders. For leaders to rely only on AI, without doing the inner work of human development, would be like buying a top-of-the-line Ferrari while ignoring our driving skills. To get the best from AI, we need to equally invest in the development of our human potential. Alone, neither is sufficient. Both are necessary.

In our latest HBR article, Rasmus Hougaard and Jacqueline Carter discuss how AI can become a powerful ally in enhancing leadership abilities. They argue that to truly harness AI’s potential, leaders must also cultivate core human qualities – awareness, wisdom, and compassion – and integrate them with AI capabilities.

To Succeed with AI, Adopt a Beginner’s Mindset

Fear and anxiety naturally arise in times of substantial change, such as the current AI revolution. However, they can cause leaders to fall back on their ego and emphasize their expertise, which negatively impacts both people and organizations.

Instead, leaders need to adopt a beginner’s mindset characterized by openness and curiosity.

Les meilleurs leaders ne peuvent pas
être remplacés par l'IA

Despite the complexity and messiness of human interactions, employees still value them over AI’s promise. This, of course, doesn’t mean we should shun AI and its many performance benefits. Instead, the best leaders of today — and tomorrow — find a balance in their practice that embraces AI and its many strengths while also doubling down on their very human qualities as leaders.  

Do you believe that leaders have qualities that AI cannot emulate? Or do you think that leaders will sooner or later be replaced?

Human Leaders in the Age of AI

Dans le même temps, les niveaux historiquement bas de confiance dans les dirigeants et les environnements externes secoués par les conflits et les divisions signifient que les employés attendent des dirigeants qu'ils soient authentiques, transparents et compatissants. Comment aller de l'avant dans un avenir fondé sur l'IA ?

Dans cette conférence, nous partageons les résultats de la récente étude de Potential Projectsur le moment et la manière d'adopter l'IA, et nous partageons des idées provocatrices sur le moment où les dirigeants doivent redoubler d'efforts pour devenir des dirigeants plus humains. Il y a un moyen de faire les deux et l'occasion se présente maintenant. Commençons.
