Description
As AI and accelerating technological change reshape organisations, risk and resilience leaders face a growing challenge: making decisions today while preparing for a future that continues to evolve. In this keynote, futurist Ross Dawson explores the forces changing how we work, lead and respond to uncertainty.
Drawing on his work in strategic foresight and human-AI collaboration, Ross will explore how organisations can anticipate change, make sense of growing volumes of information and combine human judgement with emerging technologies. The session will consider what these shifts mean for risk and resilience professionals, and the capabilities organisations need to adapt and seize new opportunities.
