AI ate my org chart: Rethinking work and leadership

"The biggest risk is never taking risks."

Adam Grant

In this dynamic, live-recorded session from Uplift 2025, organizational psychologist and bestselling author Adam Grant joins forces with MIT research scientist and AI thought leader Andrew McAfee for a candid, thought-provoking conversation moderated by BetterUp co-founder and CEO Alexi Robichaux.

What unfolds is part keynote, part intellectual jam session—offering a front-row seat to a conversation that challenges everything we think we know about leadership in the AI era. In the full recording, you’ll learn why pilots—not plans—are the new path to progress, how to rethink intelligence in an era where knowing is no longer enough, and where to strike the right balance between AI and human input. You’ll also explore why dismantling hierarchy starts with curiosity over control, and how to protect culture while accelerating transformation.
