  • Leadership in the Age of AI - Episode 3: ”AI at Full Speed: Innovation, Ethics, and the Battle for Global Leadership”

    Leadership in the Age of AI - Episode 3: ”AI at Full Speed: Innovation, Ethics, and the Battle for Global Leadership”
    Jun 2 2025
    This episode tells the story of AI’s accelerating speed versus society’s struggle to keep up. It positions AI as a high-stakes power struggle where business leaders, policymakers, and global superpowers are all vying for control—each with conflicting interests.It’s not just about whether AI is good or bad; it’s about who gets to decide its future and what happens to leaders when the rules are unclear or constantly shifting.

    AI is evolving at a breakneck pace, but laws, ethics, and leadership models are lagging behind. As the world’s most powerful economies take different approaches—Big Tech-led in the U.S., regulation-driven in the EU, and government-controlled in China—executives and policymakers face a fundamental dilemma: Should they prioritize speed or responsibility?This episode explores this battle from three angles:
    1. Business Leaders: Forced to choose between racing ahead with AI or slowing down to avoid ethical and legal risks.
    2. Policymakers: Struggling to regulate AI before it causes irreversible societal harm.
    3. Superpowers: Competing for AI dominance in a race that could define the next era of global leadership.
    The big question: If AI is the new battleground for world power, who gets left behind?

    #12 Leadership in the Age of AI - Episode 1: ”What Will AI do to Leadership?”
    Jan 23 2025
    Will AI mean that leaders can finally retire to the beach—or will it make leaders completely irrelevant? How do leaders stay value-adding and employable when algorithms can make strategic roadmaps, analyze outcomes, and monitor progress better than humans can? And what happens to work when efficiency takes over and becomes dehumanizing?

    In this thought-provoking episode of CBS Executive Talks, host Camilla Ellehave brings together Anders Romare, CIO of Novo Nordisk, and Dr. Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic, an authority on AI and leadership, to tackle the seismic shifts AI is bringing to work and leadership. They explore pressing questions like:Will leadership in 2030 mean less management and more leadership? How can leaders embrace AI while maintaining the human touch and avoid creating dehumanizing work and organizations? What role will ethics, empathy, and personal connectivity play?

    As AI reshapes the business landscape, one thing is clear: Leadership as we know it is evolving. Tune in to discover how you can stay ahead, amplify your leadership skills, and lead with impact in this brave new world. The future of leadership starts here. This episode is a must-listen for anyone looking to navigate the complexities of AI-driven leadership and wanting to prepare for the transformative changes ahead.
