AI and management: save time and stay human

In this latest episode of Les Pieds dans le Plat, Claudio Vandi interviews Xavier Perret, Director of Cloud Azure at Microsoft France.

AI is scary.

Will it replace us? Should we fear for our professional future? How should we use it? We're all full of questions about the arrival of generative AI and all it has to offer. 

From the beginnings of AI to its most concrete uses at Microsoft, Xavier Perret shares his key learnings on how to use it for technology-enhanced management.

So, how can AI (really) help managers? In this episode: 

  • What concrete uses for generative AI at Microsoft?
  • How can you save time on low value-added tasks and refocus on the essentials?
  • What ethical and practical limits should we bear in mind?
  • And how AI can even help us better prepare... for a tough annual interview!

A fascinating exchange on the promises (and pitfalls) of AI for today's managers.

Enjoy!
