Course Description
Do you use Google, Netflix, Siri, ChatBots, Social Media? Artificial Intelligence (AI) is everywhere and often we don’t even realise we are using it, particularly at work. To recognise and attain organisational value from AI we must understand human-AI interactions.
In this course you will discover how AI technologies are transforming work and organisational behaviour. You will study both the challenges and opportunities of AI in the workplace and its impact on leadership and human resource management (HRM) practices such as talent acquisition, team dynamics and performance management. The course will also cover the ethical and social implications of AI adoption and explore strategies for effective integration of AI into the workplace.

Authentic and industry-relevant learning is critical to this course and you will be encouraged to critically compare and contrast what is happening in your context and in industry, and to use your insights.
