The AI in Business Podcast

A job title no longer tells you what a technical role actually requires, now that AI has changed how the work gets done.
In this episode, Carrol Chang, CEO of Andela, unpacks how AI is reshaping technical roles, and why hiring and assessment need to shift from job titles to skills.
 
The conversation covers how leaders can assess for judgment and problem-solving rather than just technical output, and how to map a workforce for reskilling as roles continue to change.
