This page distils our latest thinking about the questions that keep us up at night – about AI, about responsibility, about humanity, about what we owe each other. Articles. Videos. Conversations. Podcast.
83% of S&P 500 companies now flag AI as a risk, yet fewer than 3% of directors have AI expertise. Hiring experts is only half the fix.
Record CEO turnover and an AI transition that most companies are failing to profit from send a clear signal: The job of leading and governing an enterprise has fundamentally changed. Here is what leaders must do to change with it.
Faisal Hoque on why structural integrity, governance and human oversight – not speed – are the CIO’s real test in the agentic enterprise

FeaturedWho Controls AI Now? That's the question behind this week's launch of our Weekly Convergence Pulse.
SHADOKA’s programs are focused on the unprecedented drivers of change that are reshaping organizations and individuals simultaneously.
AI is not a tool upgrade. It is a new category of intelligence that changes the meaning of work, decision-making, creativity, and leadership.
