After soaring levels of investment, there is real pressure mounting on technology leaders to make AI work. However, as the Harvey Nash Digital Leadership Report and our latest Tech Flix documentary ‘The AI Paradox: AI is Scaling, Skills are Not’ explore, the vast majority of organisations are overlooking a vital success factor in not upskilling people in AI skills. So, as a digital leader, what are the conversations you should be having with your peers to better harness the huge potential in these tools?

In our recent Tech Flix 6 film ‘The AI Paradox: AI is Scaling, Skills are Not’, we explored the growing tension inside organisations as AI adoption accelerates and raises important questions about what happens to the future of tech teams that digital transformation depends on.

Today, your CV is likely being reviewed by AI before a human ever sees it. It is embedded across the hiring process, from screening and shortlisting to interview scheduling and skills assessment. That creates both opportunity and risk for candidates.

Artificial intelligence is reshaping how organisations operate, but the reality behind the AI conversation is more nuanced than the headlines suggest. Many businesses are racing to be seen as “AI organisations”, often before they have a fully formed AI strategy in place. What they do know, however, is that AI capability has become a differentiator and data professionals sit at the centre of making it work.
