LinkedIn research says half of C-suite leaders are flying blind on AI—and its CBO says they can’t fix it the way they’re trying
A recent LinkedIn survey indicates that half of C-suite leaders lack a clear understanding of future workforce needs related to AI adoption. Chief Business Officer Mark Lobosco suggests this "workforce blind spot" is exacerbated by top-down mandates, as employees may resist AI if they perceive it as a threat rather than a career accelerant. He emphasizes that successful AI integration requires leaders to be proficient users of AI tools themselves, guiding transformation from the front rather than delegating it entirely. AI
