​AI is evolving fast - and as the operations leaders shaping the backbone of how companies work, we need more than just tools.

​It's up to us to zoom out and explore the deeper ethical considerations of AI from an operational lens - beyond automation and into values, responsibilities, and culture.

​Join us for an interactive session designed to help you reflect on your role in ensuring ethical, thoughtful AI use within your organisation!

​By the end of this session, you’ll...

​✅ Explore the ethical risks and limitations of AI (e.g. biased datasets, misrepresentation)

​✅ Understand how human interaction shapes AI responses and outcomes

​✅ Reflect on your responsibilities as an ops leader guiding AI use across teams

​✅ Start shaping your own organisational values to guide ethical implementation

​You should join us if you’re...

​✅ A strategic operations leader or COO shaping cross-functional systems, policies, or culture

​✅ Working on or influencing how your organisation approaches AI adoption

​✅ Interested in exploring long-term implications and thoughtful decision-making - not just tools and tactics

​However, you’re unlikely to benefit if...

​🚫 You’re looking for AI tool demos, workflow tutorials, or how-to guides

​🚫 You work in a role with little influence over team or organisational processes

​There are only 18 spaces!

​Since this is a small session, we’ve added some additional registration questions - and we’d really appreciate you filling in each one. Your responses help us tailor the session by understanding what you’re hoping to get from the session, and ensure we bring together a well-rounded mix of voices for a valuable, engaging conversation.

​We’ll review all registrations and may be in touch if we need any extra context from your answers.

​We recommend that you sign up even if the session looks full - you'll be added to the waitlist, and we'll notify you if someone drops out.

​​If you're no longer able to attend, let us know by selecting "Not attending" - so we can invite someone from the waitlist.

​Thank you for understanding and helping us bring you a great event experience! 🙌
