RRA AI CEO Lab

Russell Reynolds Associates partnered with 100 leading CEOs, and Harvard Business School professors Karim Lakhani and Tsedal Neeley, to explore how leaders can unlock the vast potential of AI.

Despite the buzz and potential of Artificial Intelligence, many CEOs find themselves at a crossroads, grappling with a critical question: How do we actually implement AI in our organizations?

There is no doubt that the challenges of AI transformation are complex—from knowing where to start, to addressing skills gaps, and managing ethical concerns. It’s also true that the stakes are high to get it right—and not be left behind.

To navigate a path forward, we brought together RRA experts, 100 high-profile CEOs across a range of industries and geographies who are actively implementing AI across their organizations, and Harvard Business School professors Karim Lakhani and Tsedal Neeley for our RRA AI CEO Lab roundtable series.

Here we share their invaluable insights and practical lessons, providing you with a roadmap to harness the true power of AI and drive your business forward.
