As AI transforms organizations, leaders face the macro challenge of aligning teams with vastly different skill needs. Technical teams must develop soft skills like communication and empathy, while non-technical teams must gain enough technical fluency to collaborate with AI-driven tools. This panel explores how difficult it is to manage change across these divergent profiles and what’s required to unify them. Attendees will gain actionable strategies to build cross-functional understanding, reduce resistance, and drive adoption.
