Warren Valdmanis is Managing Partner at Future of Work Partners
October 27, 2025, 5:30-6:30 p.m., McLaughlin Atrium
Artificial intelligence’s impact on work is a multi-stakeholder, multi-disciplinary challenge that is reshaping the global economy. It’s top-of-mind for MBAs, not only as future leaders, but also as professionals whose industries are being transformed. It’s equally critical for those engaged in the policy arena, where decisions and frameworks for ensuring AI is used responsibly, promoting innovation while mitigating potential harms, will shape the workforce of tomorrow.
Warren Valdmanis, Managing Partner at Future of Work Partners and co-author of Accountable: The Rise of Citizen Capitalism, joins Tuck Professor Charlie Wheelan to discuss how business leaders, investors, and policymakers can navigate the AI revolution, striking a balance between innovation, workforce opportunities, and societal impact.
Cosponsors: Tuck Center for Business, Government & Society; Tuck Center for Digital Strategies; Nelson A. Rockefeller Center for Public Policy
