For all the talk about Generative AI the work of management remains largely untouched by the new tech wave. Research by Katim Lakhani of Harvard Business School suggests that less than 10 percent of executives use Generative AI tools in their daily work.
But, how can —and will—GenAI change the world of management?
A new report from The Management Lab by Capgemini Invent in partnership with Thinkers50 provides exciting new practical insights into the likely future of management. Welcome to the world of ManagementGPT.
The central transformative insight from this research project is to understand GenAI’s potential to act as a collaborative Co-Thinker rather than as a mere Co-Pilot. The role of a Co-Pilot often renders humans passive, merely awaiting answers or task completion. In contrast, strategic dialogue with an AI Co-Thinker brings value through feedback and mutual challenge. This opens up a way forward to what really matters for managers and their organizations: better decisions, more rounded strategies and truly transparent leadership.
To get to the future of ManagementGPT where Co-Thinkers, well-versed in a variety of management practices, engage managers in valuable human-machine conversations on complex topics and trade-offs, work needs to be done. The availability of specific context, related methodological prompts and advanced guardrails are all limited. Working with thinkers from the Thinkers50 Community, this report navigates us into the future, driven by curiosity, collaboration, discovery, and the pursuit of making good, responsible management achievable to all.
As part of our ManagementGPT experiment, we beta-tested three Co-Thinker use cases, each addressing relevant management needs that span strategy, business model innovation, and organizational culture.
This session provides insights into ManagementGPT, featuring a showcase of the three AI Co-Thinker prototypes and the lessons learned for further experimentation.
