Corporate Vice President, AI at Work @ Microsoft | Predicting, shaping and innovating for the future of work | Tech optimist
My latest newsletter provides a detailed rundown on the rise of the #AI power user and how organizations can harness their enthusiasm for AI to drive business impact. Our fourth annual #WorkTrendIndex reveals that AI power users save over half an hour daily, boosting their #creativity and allowing them to focus on more important tasks. These users are proactive in exploring AI, sharing tips, and prioritizing continuous learning. However, AI power users need support from forward-thinking #leadership to be truly successful. Organizations that foster AI experimentation, provide comprehensive training, and encourage leader championship can best harness employee enthusiasm and thrive in an AI-enhanced future. Read on for a deeper dive into the AI power user and five actions leaders can take to maximize business value from AI. ⬇️
Many people are afraid of AI, but for me, it's freed me up to do my job better, think more creatively with the time savings, and also give me better work life balance. I'd say I'm approaching the Power User designation, but even with my limited skills, AI is a game changer
Power users should always be trained & certified on ethical AI. Else, next thing you know, all your sensitive internal or customer comms are sent to a Big Tech Cloud, with no "oooops" button. Just saying... 😥 😁
I’m definitely an AI power user, but still can’t get an initial interview for internal AI roles. Very strange. I’ll probably use AI to think through this HR hiring issue.
Jared Spataro Companies should focus on creating a supportive environment for AI adoption. This includes not just tailored training but also a culture that celebrates learning and experimentation with AI. i have seen how regular workshops and hands-on sessions can be particularly effective.

Such an insightful article! The role senior leadership plays in AI adoption is of utmost importance. “Before starting a task, ask themselves “could AI help me with this?” - love how actionable this learning is.

Out of all your good posts this one really stands out Jared. Couldn't agree more and we are seeing exactly the same results and needed actions with our 200+ Copilot customers.
Insightful article! It's fascinating to see how AI is paving the way for future advancements.
