Abstract
This report summarises the fourth BusinessFirstNZ workshop for 2024, and 17th in the series, hosted by the Massey Business School to engage local businesses. The initiative seeks to assist business leaders to highlight business problems and seek practical solutions in their pursuit of business excellence and sustainable competitive advantage.
In this half-day workshop, Associate Professor David Brougham from the School of Management gave attendees an overview and update of AI before helping them explore how it can be used in their working and daily lives for greater efficiency, effectiveness, and ultimately productivity. David drew on his expertise and research in the future of work to take participants through an afternoon of considering how emerging technologies might impact their workplace.
The focus of the workshop was supporting attendees to think about the challenges and opportunities their business is likely to face in the next ten years, the jobs that might be automated in their industry, and to focus on the future of automation in their line of work.
Highlights of the workshop included:
• An overview of disruptive technologies, their impact on companies, and understanding the adoption of new ideas, products, and activities
• Discussion on the different ways businesses already engage with AI tools, such as ChatGPT
• Brainstorming about the ways in which businesses might use AI tools in the future
• Implications for businesses as AI tools continue to become more mainstream
