What if one of AI's biggest business benefits isn't doing work faster, but helping executives see problems coming before they happen?

What Leaders Need to Get Right for 2027
As executives plan for 2027, growth is only part of the equation.
How do you protect profitability when costs remain under pressure? How do you make sure your strongest performers are actually prepared to manage? And if AI is improving productivity, why aren't employees necessarily experiencing less work?
On this episode of the ExecutiveEDGE Podcast, Abby White and Geert De Lombaerde examine three leadership challenges shaping the year ahead: protecting margins, building a stronger management bench and making sure AI creates real capacity rather than simply higher expectations.
Because a stronger top line doesn't necessarily mean stronger margins. A great individual contributor doesn't automatically become a great manager. And AI productivity gains mean a lot less if they simply translate into more work.Episode Resources

Where Inflation Is Still Biting
What does inflation look like from inside the C-suite?
In this episode of ExecutiveEDGE, we move beyond the economic forecasts and look at what executives across industries are saying about the costs hitting their businesses right now.
Semiconductors, diesel, transportation, raw materials and logistics are creating very different challenges — and companies are responding with everything from product engineering and supply-chain leverage to pricing actions and cost reductions.
The larger question for leaders: How do you plan when you can't assume cost pressures will ease anytime soon?
