🗞 It’s time for #industryinsights In today's rapidly evolving landscape, many organisations are adopting human-centric technology strategies, especially as they integrate #AI for decision-making. These strategies emphasise strong collaboration between new #AI tools and human workers, significantly contributing to a company's ESG and social responsibility goals. This synergy enhances #AI adoption while fostering a collaborative environment 🤝 where the human workforce and automation work together seamlessly. However, the journey isn't without challenges. Supply chain leaders frequently cite (https://lnkd.in/eGcuxtJS) talent shortages and the difficulty of integrating new technology with existing talent as their top concerns.
