1. The AI Leadership Skills That Matter Now

Fortune's latest analysis reveals what separates successful AI-era leaders from those left behind. With Anthropic's CEO warning that AI could eliminate 50% of entry-level white-collar jobs and spike unemployment to 20%, the human skills that can't be replicated become your competitive advantage.

Focus on what only humans can do:

• Emotional intelligence and political skills for understanding people and navigating complex relationships

• Strategic creativity for making up new rules rather than just playing existing games faster

• Visionary storytelling for building trust, judging ethical issues, and planning for various threats

The new leadership imperative: Show your teams how AI works to their benefit, not as their replacement. Your role is shifting from managing workflows to orchestrating human-AI collaboration.

The takeaway

Identify employees who possess uniquely human skills or are agile enough to be coached up. Then sell this approach to stakeholders by explaining that humans remain for superior problem-framing and innovation, not just speed.

2. Pick One of Those 3 AI Tools Today

Ethan Mollick published a great article a couple of days ago called “Using AI Right Now: A Quick Guide” which explains how leaders should think in systems and not just single models.

To make it simple, he recommends that you pick one of three superior systems today:

• Claude (from Anthropic)

• Gemini (from Google)

• ChatGPT (from OpenAI)

He also recommends that you pay the $20 per month because the “free versions are demos, not tools,” and so you get access to the more powerful models.

Here’s a table from the article that explains what each tool & model is good for.
