NewLeading Strategically in an AI World – A Primer for Non-Digital Leaders
Artificial Intelligence is no longer a distant concept—it’s already influencing policy, service delivery, public trust, and the way our organisations operate. For public sector leaders, understanding AI isn’t about coding or becoming a data scientist—it’s about making informed, ethical, and strategic decisions that serve the public good.
As AI adoption grows across government and public services, there is a critical need for leaders to:
- Understand what AI can and can’t do
- Navigate the legal and ethical implications
- Identify strategic opportunities without compromising core values or compliance
This webinar will help bridge the gap for non-digital leaders who are increasingly being asked to make decisions about technology without a technical background.
Delivered by Niran Mothada, an experienced public sector transformation leader, this 60-minute session will give you an insightful and accessible introduction to leading in an AI-driven world.
- Understanding the AI Landscape in the Public Sector
- The Strategic Building Blocks of an AI Approach
- The One Key Takeaway: Digital Leadership Requires Agility And The Ability To Leverage, And Navigate The Uncertainty Of Emerging Technologies.
“AI strategy must start with a clear understanding of your organisation’s specific challenges and objectives—before selecting tools or technology.”
You’ll learn how public sector leaders can take a grounded, needs-first approach—ensuring any future use of AI supports your mission and upholds ethical standards.
Who should attend?
This webinar is ideal for:
- Non-digital public sector leaders and senior managers
- Strategy and policy professionals
- Change and transformation leads
- Data Protection Officers (DPOs), IAOs and SIROs
This session offers a valuable introduction to the full course: Leading Strategically in an AI World, where Niran expands on the frameworks, leadership mindsets and practical tools needed to lead responsibly through digital change.
