Event overview

In an age of accelerating change, professionals face constant pressure to innovate responsibly. Artificial intelligence promises efficiency and insight—but how do you know when it is the right tool for the job, or when it might put your work reputation at risk?

This session was created to help RSM alumni navigate the grey areas between AI hype and opportunity, offering a practical lens for evaluating when, why and how to use AI responsibly. Through real-world examples and public case studies, we’ll explore how to balance opportunities for efficiency with ethical decision making, automation with accountability and curiosity with caution.

By the end of this course, participants will explore AI confidently and responsibly, communicate transparently and maintain client trust while embracing the tools reshaping modern work. We’ll examine this transparency from the viewpoints of yourself, your team and your clients.
