QUOTE OF THE WEEK:

“Trust is the main ingredient for business. So instead of telling your employees that AI is coming after you’ve made the decision and have a plan for implementation, you should involve them during conception and evaluation. That way, you can address their questions, fears and concerns from the start.”

 

— Paulo Preciado, executive advisor partner for the Caribbean and Central America, Great Place to Work
