Don’t miss the next Learning Over Lunch on Thursday, 5/14:
“AI Won’t Lead Your Team. You Will. (Are You Ready?)”

A lot of IT professionals move into leadership because they’re great technically… but leading people is a completely different skill set.

This session dives into the reality of modern IT leadership, how AI is changing the landscape, and why strong human decision-making still matters now more than ever. Especially with all the AI hype, noise, and automation flooding the industry.

You’ll hear practical insight on:
• Building teams that actually scale
• Moving beyond technical-only leadership
• Where AI helps and where it absolutely doesn’t
• Why human leadership is still the difference-maker

Register for our next Learning over Lunch held Thursday, 5/14: AI Won't Lead Your Team. You Will. (Are You Ready?)

Most IT leaders are promoted for what they know, not how they lead. This session hits the hard truth about why technical excellence creates a ceiling, not a career, and what it actually takes to build a team that scales.

We’ll also dig into where AI is reshaping the IT leadership landscape, what it means for your team’s decision-making, and why a human in the loop is still needed - especially with the AI noise in the IT landscape today.
