Artificial intelligence is already becoming a big part of our daily lives. It is helping to personalize our internet searches, filtering spam, helping banks detect fraud. Any company that is not seriously thinking about applying artificial intelligence will simply be left behind. For a strategic use of artificial intelligence, companies need to develop AI competencies internally and create a culture of innovation. Business leaders must keep up with developments in AI. In that way, they can reorient and reimagine their businesses to thrive during the intelligence revolution.<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<h2 data-usually-unique-id=\"462780150523841367885088\"><span class=\"attrlink url author-d-1gg9uz65z1iz85zgdz68zmqkz84zo2qoxvz85zpz122ztq66rz79zz77zz67zmbz71zz74zyyz79zz79zqez89zy2z77ziz68zmz85zs\"><a class=\"attrlink\" href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/bersin\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer nofollow noopener\" data-target-href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/bersin\/\">Josh Bersin<\/a><\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div><span class=\" author-d-1gg9uz65z1iz85zgdz68zmqkz84zo2qoxvz85zpz122ztq66rz79zz77zz67zmbz71zz74zyyz79zz79zqez89zy2z77ziz68zmz85zs\">Josh Bersin is the president and founder of Bersin &amp; Associates, leading industry research and advisory firm in enterprise learning and talent management.

This attracted enthusiasts in fields that deal with the challenges and trends impacting business workforces around the world. One of the core concepts of workforce management includes the involvement of HR and WFM analytics. One of his most startling findings has been that DEI training is one of the least impactful practices. There were millions of dollars invested on that over the last years. They also found that only one company in five holds itself accountable for equity and inclusion in its business practices. However, roughly 40% of companies still see DEI as an issue of risk mitigation and compliance, not a strategic imperative.<\/span><\/div>\n<div>\n<h2 data-usually-unique-id=\"765126428835324433646191\"><span class=\"attrlink url author-d-1gg9uz65z1iz85zgdz68zmqkz84zo2qoxvz85zpz122ztq66rz79zz77zz67zmbz71zz74zyyz79zz79zqez89zy2z77ziz68zmz85zs\">Latanya Sweeney<\/span><\/h2>\n<\/div>\n<div><span class=\" author-d-1gg9uz65z1iz85zgdz68zmqkz84zo2qoxvz85zpz122ztq66rz79zz77zz67zmbz71zz74zyyz79zz79zqez89zy2z77ziz68zmz85zs\">Latanya Arvette Sweeney is a Professor of the Practice of Government and Technology at Harvard University.
