RPCN’s Enhancing Human CapitalTM Deep Dives are held on the third Thursday of every month.
T
Decision-Making in the Age of AI
Facilitator: Bob Manard
We’re no longer operating in a world where information is scarce. With AI tools like ChatGPT, Gemini, and others delivering instant analysis and recommendations, the challenge has shifted.
The question is no longer “How do I figure this out?” but “Do I trust this? Does it align with our values? And what is the risk of saying 'Yes'?”
In this month’s Enhancing Human Capital Deep Dive, we’ll explore how decision-making is evolving in real time. Where should AI play a role? Where should it not? And how do we balance speed, data, and human judgment when the stakes matter?
This will be an interactive, discussion-driven session focused on real experiences, not theory. Whether you’re actively using AI or just starting to explore it, you’ll leave with a clearer framework for making better decisions in a rapidly changing landscape.
Come ready to think, share, and challenge your assumptions.
