Artificial Intelligence must become an important part of your leadership strategy. 

It’s rapidly changing leadership as we know it, yet too many leaders and their businesses are behind the curve. AI represents enormous opportunities for every organization plus potential dangers that many miss.  It must be addressed in your company vision and a consideration for the future of your career.

I host Manoj Saxena, Executive Chairman of the Responsible AI Institute, a non-profit he founded six years ago to advance certification of Trustworthy and Ethical AI.  He shares four critical questions every leader can use to immediately harness the power of AI.

He is also Chairman of CognitiveScale, a venture-backed software company focused on AI Engineering for regulated industries.

Also Manoj served as Chairman of the board of the US Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, San Antonio for six years. 

Previously, he served as the first General Manager of IBM Watson, where his team built the first cognitive systems. Prior to IBM, Saxena was the founder and CEO of two venture-backed software companies which were acquired within a five-year span by Commerce One and by IBM.

He’s Director of the Saxena Family Foundation and a Lecturer at University of Texas Austin where he teaches a course on Design of Ethical Artificial Intelligence systems.
