IEEE-USA Livestream Webinar: Transitioning from Expert to Leader in the AI and BANI Era

You want to move into a leadership role — but the path from expert to leader isn’t what it used to be. In this session, we’ll explore what it really means to evolve beyond subject-matter expertise and step into transformative leadership during an era defined by AI acceleration and what futurist Jamais Cascio coined as the BANI era: Brittle, Anxious, Nonlinear, and Incomprehensible.
What You’ll Take Away:
–
A deeper understanding of why today’s volatility demands more than just competence — it demands clarity, adaptability, and relational intelligence
–
A mindset shift from reactive problem-solver to systems-aware leader
–
New language and frameworks for building trust, influence, and decision-making power in uncertain environments
–
Tools to define your unique value as a future-ready leader — not just a domain expert
Bonus Takeaway:
Learn how AI isn’t replacing leaders — it’s revealing the gaps in human leadership. You’ll leave with a mental model to augment your intuition and strategic decision-making in real time.
