Culture Over Code: How Conscious Companies Thrive with AI

As AI reshapes the modern workforce, firms face a defining ethical challenge: how to pursue innovation without eroding trust, purpose, or humanity. This talk explores the evolving role of leaders in guiding organizations through AI-driven change while staying true to the principles of Conscious Capitalism. Drawing on real examples, we examine how layoffs, reskilling, and AI-integration reveal the tension between efficiency and empathy. Let's reframe AI adoption through the lenses of higher purpose, stakeholder alignment, and conscious leadership, building cultures where technology amplifies human potential rather than replaces it.
