Go with a growth mindsetPrior to ChatGPT's public launch, most managers had minimal experience using generative AI.
That changed quickly as some businesses — including IBM — suggested that managers start using AI or risk losing their jobs.
The better question for leaders is, "Do I believe I can learn to leverage generative AI in a productive way?"
We are seeing this at an organizational level with AI, as some leaders put the brakes on using generative AI, based in part on perception of an AI-related skills gap among employees and the challenge of filling that.
The conclusion here is that to get the best of generative AI, don't play into a dictator-servant relationship.
