Description
Gen AI is changing the way you work. So why is your team stuck in neutral?
The adoption of generative AI is now widespread, yet it is still typically used on an individual basis: one person, one screen, one task. Meanwhile, the most important work in organizations happens in teams. The transformative potential of enhancing teamwork with gen AI is too big to ignore; fortunately, you can make AI-enabled collaboration real right now and see immediate results.
The HBR Guide to Generative AI for Teams is packed with practical tips, prompts, and case studies to elevate team-based work. Whether you're a team leader, manage AI transformation initiatives, or facilitate group work of any kind, you'll learn how to:
Bring gen AI into any meeting, workshop, or session
Run better brainstorms, business reviews, and retrospectives
Leverage gen AI as a team member, not just a notetaker
Use your team's collective judgment to avoid pitfalls
Reach team outcomes that were impossible before gen AI
Establish a new "humans+AI" way of working in teams
Arm yourself with the advice you need to succeed on the job, with the most trusted brand in business. Packed with how-to essentials from leading experts, the HBR Guides provide smart answers to your most pressing work challenges.
