Intelligence quotients are irrelevant in the AI era.
In a world of self-managing teams and AI execution, the attributes that define a thriving leader are fundamentally different.
It’s not about knowing more.
It’s about being more.
The first is Anticipatory Intelligence
The ability to see around corners, to predict the cascading effects of AI adoption, and to proactively shape the organization’s trajectory.
Second, Systems Thinking
Understanding how interconnected AI-powered functions create emergent behavior, and designing feedback loops to optimize performance.
Finally, and perhaps most critically, Radical Trust
The willingness to relinquish control, to empower teams with autonomy, and to embrace failure as a learning opportunity.
These aren’t skills to be taught.
They are mindsets to be cultivated.
Are you building a leadership pipeline focused on these non-negotiable attributes, or are you clinging to outdated models of control?
