AI for Leaders

Pretending you Understand is Dangerous

AI for leaders is now a core leadership risk, not a technical detail you can delegate and forget. If AI goes wrong, you can’t blame the algorithm; someone in the business made (or failed to make) a decision, and that accountability lands with leadership.

In this podcast, I explain why “pretending you understand” is dangerous, using two real patterns I keep seeing: proposals quietly corrupted by AI errors (costing serious revenue), and teams feeding strategic information into chatbots without realising competitors may be using the same tools. These risks are manageable, but only if you take responsibility early.

My question for you: are you leading AI, or is AI leading you? If you’re not sure, that’s your answer. Subscribe if you want to change that.
