The New Rules of Human - Machine Collaboration: How Leaders Build Organisations that Thrive in the Age of AI

04 Mar 2026
Big Data & AI World Keynote Theatre
AI Culture & Leadership
How do leaders build organisations that thrive in the age of AI?

This panel brings together leaders from advertising, media, acoustics, and education to explore how AI is reshaping their work, leadership, and organisational design. Using sector-specific insight and case studies, the conversation examines where AI is influencing decisions today, how human judgement continues to define outcomes, and where technology is rapidly expanding its role.

The panel will also address emerging opportunities and disparities across skills, gender, and workforce experience, and the growing need for organisations to understand their workforce data and the needs behind it. Ultimately, the session sets out the new rules for business in this era; because while technology accelerates change, it is leaders who decide how organisations move forward.
