As AI transforms how organizations operate, this panel examines why keeping people - and the qualities that make us uniquely human - at the center is more important than ever. Jo McKinney, Chief Growth Officer BOI (Board of Innovation) brings her expertise in building AI-native capabilities for global organizations, Elizabeth Sandler, Chief Operating Officer Mohari Hospitality draws on her work guiding high-performance teams in tech-driven environments, and Alison Moore, CEO of Chief brings her perspective heading up the most powerful network for senior women leaders. Together, they explore why it’s critical to prioritize human judgment in AI decision making, and why empathy is no longer a “soft” skill but an essential capability for leaders navigating an AI-augmented future.
