# Event Details - **Event Name**: Executive Lunch Series: Building Leadership Readiness in the AI Era - **Event Start and End Date**: Tue, 13 Jan, 2026 at 11:00 am – Tue, 13 Jan, 2026 at 01:00 pm - **Event Description**: Connect with fellow executives and get ready to level up your team's skills so they are prepared to thrive in the AI era!About this EventAs artificial intelligence reshapes the workplace, the true differentiator won’t be who has access to AI—but who knows how to lead it. In the next three years, your staff will need to master not just new tools, but new ways of thinking, communicating, and managing in partnership with intelligent systems. The leaders who thrive will be those who can clearly articulate vision, ask the right questions, and translate between human intent and AI execution.This session explores how to cultivate those capabilities now. We’ll discuss why communication, critical thinking, and empathy—skills once considered “soft”—are now mission-critical to orchestrating teams of humans and machines. You’ll learn how to identify and develop your subject matter experts (SMEs) and your “superstars”—the individuals poised to rise as leaders of hybrid teams, guiding AI agents as collaborators rather than competitors.In this talk, we’ll examine what it means to build a culture of adaptive learning, empower employees to communicate effectively with both people and AI, and create an environment where innovation and accountability flourish. The question is no longer if your team will work alongside AI—but how well they’ll lead it. This is your roadmap to ensuring they thrive.Agenda11:00 am - Check-In & Networking11:30 am - Lunch is Served, Speaker & Peer Discussion12:45 pm - Wrap-UpAbout our SpeakerHarrison Painter helps executives grow revenue, strengthen teams, and compete in fast-changing markets through practical, results-driven AI strategies.
