Agenda

Dr. Diane Hamilton has spent her career studying what makes people curious, and what quietly shuts that curiosity down. In this fireside chat, she joins Gerhard Gschwandtner to explore her new book, Adaptive Curiosity, and the research behind it: eighty percent of working people tie their identity directly to their job, which means AI absorbing parts of that job threatens more than just tasks, it threatens meaning. Diane shares the four pathways that actually sustain purpose at work and the four hidden factors that block curiosity in the first place. A candid, unscripted conversation for anyone rethinking what their role becomes next.

Sellers can learn how to use an AI tool. The tougher skill is knowing when to question what it recommends.

New research from Corporate Visions found that sellers followed flawed AI-generated plans nearly as often as sound ones. They also felt just as confident heading into the meeting. When sellers followed flawed AI guidance, they performed worse than reps who never opened the tool.

As AI becomes part of how sellers prepare for calls, forecast deals, and get coached, leaders need to test its recommendations, catch missing deal context, and keep sellers thinking for themselves.

In this session with Tim Riesterer, Chief Strategy Officer at Corporate Visions, you'll get practical guidance for building teams that know how to use AI and evaluate its output.

You'll discover:

• Why skilled sellers defer to flawed guidance
• What should govern AI recommendations across the sales tech stack
• How leaders can keep seller judgment sharp as AI becomes part of daily selling
