The Executive's Guide to AI: Driving Growth and Managing Costs
For leaders and executives, the key takeaway is that 2024 is the year AI at work becomes a business reality, not just an experiment. The use of generative AI has doubled in the last six months, with 75% of global knowledge workers now using it. Many employees are already bringing their own AI tools into the workplace to manage the heavy workload. While leaders recognize AI as a business imperative, many organizations are struggling to move past individual use and create a strategic plan to apply AI to drive the bottom line. This pressure for immediate ROI is causing a delay in adoption, even though the broader impact of AI is inevitable.
To successfully navigate this shift, organizations need to move from experimenting with AI to a full-fledged business transformation. Similar to past tech disruptions like the internet, the companies that will pull ahead are the ones that strategically apply AI to drive growth, manage costs, and deliver greater value to customers. Despite some fears about job loss, leaders are also facing a talent shortage in key roles. This means AI aptitude is becoming as important as traditional experience, and for many employees, AI will be an opportunity to raise the bar on their work and advance their careers.
This information is based on a comprehensive study by Microsoft and LinkedIn, which surveyed 31,000 people across 31 countries. The research also analyzed hiring trends from LinkedIn and productivity data from Microsoft 365. The findings provide critical insights and actionable steps for leaders to overcome inertia and effectively integrate AI into their organizations and workforce strategy.
