AI-Ready Workforce: Leading People & Managing Risk in the Age of AI
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
As AI rapidly reshapes how organizations operate, compete, and manage their people, business leaders face a critical challenge: how to harness AI to improve productivity and transform the workplace while effectively managing the human, legal, and organizational risks that come with it.
This year, AMCHAM Korea is bringing back one of our signature flagship programs and a perennial favorite: the "2026 AMCHAM Korea HR Workshop." This half-day program will bring together senior business leaders, HR executives, technology and AI leaders, legal and compliance professionals, and policymakers for a practical, forward-looking discussion on what it takes to build an AI-ready workforce.
