This course develops innovation leaders who can move beyond scattered, private use of AI, toward teams that create more value with AI, built into how they work. AI is already part of most teams, and people use if at different speeds, with different tools, and with difference levels of disclosure. The role of the leader is changing and few leaders know what this means for performance, accountability, or how the teams work together. This course will equip participants with frameworks, tools and hands-on experience using simulations with AI team members to lead people and AI together. Sessions encourage honest discussion about what works and what doesn’t, drawing on participants’ combined experience with leadership and AI. Learning objectives: Our central objective is to prepare you to lead when AI is part of the team. After completing this course, you will be able to: • Spot and prevent cognitive surrender in yourself and your team • Realign roles and norms when team members use AI to very different and varying degrees • Redesign your team’s processes so they create more value with AI • Build and lead your own team of AI agents • Create an action plan for you, your team, and your organization Program Director: Murat Tarakci, Professor of Innovation Strategy Practical information: • Location: IMD, Lausanne, Switzerland • Dates: June 14 – 18, 2027; sessions take place both morning & afternoon.
