4 min - If AI leads the strategy, who leads the people?
In the era of AI disruption, what does real leadership look like?
Claressa Monteiro sits down with Alan Murray, former Fortune Media CEO and founding president of The Wall Street Journal Leadership Institute, to unpack what it means to lead through relentless change.

Highlights of the conversation:
03:01 Leadership’s biggest challenge today
08:23 How Grab is leading the AI transformation
13:55 The real threat of AI disruption
16:36 Young people struggle to find jobs
18:42 Don’t forget the older workers
23:44 The biggest mistake we’re making right now
