Series three – Solving the Capability Gap – episode four

We hope that you have been enjoying our podcast series on Solving the Capability Gap.

Already, we've had the pleasure of being joined by three phenomenal trailblazers who have shared their insights and top tips on how leaders can build workforce capability in their organisations to prepare for the future.

In today's episode, we hone in on arguably one of the most important skills everyone will need to learn, regardless of their position, going forward: AI.

According to LinkedIn's Workplace Learning Report for 2024, 4 in 5 people want to learn how to use AI in their profession. But in the public sector specifically, there has been much trepidation about where to use it, how to use it, and, importantly, ensuring that it is used safely with the proper guardrails in place.

James Christie, Director of Artificial Workflow, and a guest instructor on our Elevate course on Enhancing Processes with AI, joins Andy to discuss the increasingly popular and in-demand skill of AI. Listen in as James answers the fundamentally essential questions on learning AI skills, including if having a technical background is necessary in learning AI, what the best use cases are in getting started, what other skills are complementary to learning AI skills, and the five critical success factors in implementing AI in an organisation. You will also want to take advantage of James's checklist to get going with AI in your organisation, which is provided as a download below.
