How the best CEOs are meeting the AI moment

I love when I see a CEO go spend time with a junior team and they really understand what they're doing day to day. You want to get to know tech, go spend time with the folks in your organization that are great at using it and watch them and ask them questions and watch their eyes light up when they get to interact with you and teach you something. That's Eric Kutcher, senior partner and chair of McKinsey North America. He's talking about the need for CEOs to reimagine their organization system-wide using AI. And reaching out to AI native talent is just one step in forging an AI-integrated workforce.
