In this episode of the Lead with Levity podcast, host Dr. Heather Walker dives into the topic of technology and artificial intelligence (AI) with expert Rajeev Kapur, CEO of 1105 Media. They discuss the importance of facing our fears around technology, how to get on board with new tools and skills, and the exciting opportunities that AI can unlock for human creativity. Don’t miss this insightful conversation on the future of technology in the workplace and beyond.
Here are three takeaways from our conversation:
- AI is not going away. It’s important to acknowledge that technology and AI are becoming more prevalent in our lives and in the workplace. We need to embrace this change and learn how to work with these tools in order to stay competitive and relevant.
- Getting on the bus is key. Rajeev shared his experience with his managers and how he encouraged them to learn about AI and new tools. It’s important to create a structure for picking up these skills, especially if you’ve been in your industry for a long time. Don’t be afraid to ask for help or guidance.
- Change your mindset. As Wayne Dyer said, “When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.” This applies to AI as well. Instead of fearing it, embrace it and look at it as an opportunity to learn and grow.
