Overview
AI is transforming industries at an unprecedented pace, and for leaders and executives, the challenge isn’t just understanding the technology—it’s knowing how to strategically integrate it safely, ethically, and effectively within their organisations.
AI and Culture: Insights for Business offers C-suites and CEOs the psychological, cultural, and cultural evolutionary insights needed to navigate AI’s impact on decision-making, creativity, productivity, and other aspects of business.
Drawing on cutting-edge research, practice, and case studies from psychology and cultural evolution, this course provides a practical, evidence-based approach to AI integration. Grounded in psychological and cultural evolutionary frameworks, leaders will gain the confidence needed to assess AI’s potential role in their organisations, mitigate cultural and ethical risks, and apply adaptable strategies to drive innovation while maintaining trust and accountability in a quickly changing technological and human environment.
Leaders and executives will learn human-centric, clear, actionable frameworks for responsible AI integration, through real-world case studies, guest lectures, and hands-on applications. Taught by Dr Michael Muthukrishna and Dr Dario Krpan, alongside leading industry experts, this course delivers the strategic tools leaders need to make AI work for their people and their organisations.
