In today's episode, we have the privilege of speaking with Dr. Joanna Dodd Massey about effective communication in the age of AI. We delve into how leaders can better understand and manage AI's impact on relationships and communication. Our discussion covers: * The role of leaders in grasping the impact of AI on leadership and maintaining a human-centric approach. * The challenges and opportunities AI presents in building trust within organizations, fostering diverse intellect, and empowering constructive discord. * Three essential steps to enhance awareness of AI's impact and improve communication. Featuring expert insights, case studies, and cross-industry recommendations, we explore how AI, particularly GenAI tools, manipulates our belief systems and perceptions, contributing to societal issues. This often triggers unconscious fight-or-flight responses, reinforcing tribalism. By cultivating conscious awareness, critical thinking, and compassionate, mindful connections, we can foster better engagement, openness to diverse perspectives, and improved communication and relationships. Together, we can build a world where diverse individuals share common values and aspirations.
