SUMMARY:Irreplaceable in the Age of AI – Leverage Your Human Edge
DESCRIPTION:Artificial intelligence is absorbing vast numbers of technical and analytical work at a pace most organisations are still catching up to. And yet the capabilities that determine who is trusted – remain unmistakeably human. Those who lead can accurately read the room\, hold a difficult conversation without fracturing a relationship\, make people feel genuinely heard while still driving crucial decisions. In this session\, Arabella draws on research in social neuroscience\, organisational psychology\, and behavioural science to make a case most leaders haven’t fully heard: the human edge is not a residual category left over after AI takes its share. It is the entire game. \nFeaturing: \n \nArabella Macpherson \nArabella Macpherson is one of Australia’s leading executive communications coaches and consultants\, with 20 years working alongside C-suite leaders and senior leadership teams at some of the world’s most recognised organisations – including McKinsey\, Google\, AstraZeneca\, LinkedIn\, Deloitte\, American Express\, Qantas\, CBRE and Cochlear. Her work sits at the intersection of behavioural science\, communication psychology\, and high-stakes leadership – helping executives at global multinationals communicate with the clarity\, confidence\, and influence their roles demand. Arabella is co-author of the communication section of Macquarie University’s global online MBA – one of the programme’s most popular sections\, rated 4.8 out of 5 by participants worldwide. She has spoken on over 500 stages internationally and domestically\, and approximately 95% of her client work comes through referral and repeat engagement – a reflection of the depth of relationship she builds with clients over time. Her conviction is straightforward: communication is not a soft skill. It is the engine of influence\, and influence is the currency of leadership.  \nFees: \n• $25: Members ($28.25 with HST) \n• $35: Lite members ($39.55 with HST) \n• $40: Non-members ($45.20 with HST) \nRegister here \n	\n	\n		 \n		Facebook		Twitter				Linkedin										Email
