A bleak outlook turns brighter

Purpose This paper aims to review the latest management developments across the globe and pinpoint practical implications from cutting-edge research and case studies. Design/methodology/approach This briefing is prepared by an independent writer who adds their own impartial comments and places the articles in context. Findings Employees who fear their jobs are at risk due to increased adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) often respond by hoarding knowledge and thus negatively impacting innovation within their firm. Leaders can help reduce these employee concerns through greater transparency about AI tools, promotion of knowledge-sharing and by emphasizing that technology use will complement human input rather than replace it. Originality/value The briefing saves busy executives and researchers hours of reading time by selecting only the very best, most pertinent information and presenting it in a condensed and easy-to-digest format.
