combination, AI plus human, was far more effective than either alone,” he explained. However, he cautioned that AI itself can be biased.
One major source of bias is the training data. If it lacks diversity, or if the developers of the model come from a narrow demographic, then there is more likely to be bias in the system. Organisations also need to think more carefully about
who is sent on assignment, and why. AI augmented systems can help global mobility departments where talent exists already. He cited the example of an oil and gas company which was sending people from Houston to Lagos, even though there was plenty of qualified talent in Lagos, including locals who spoke English and understand the market. The company just was not using data to guide those decisions and was using an outdated mindset to think about how to find and use talent.
Benjamin three takeaways for business leaders: • Stop viewing peers solely as competitors. Many companies are so fixated on competition they miss what’s coming next. “Collaboration is key. We are partnering with other firms right now and each of us brings different expertise. Together, we can offer something far more powerful.”
• Discover how to learn effectively and efficiently: Most people think taking notes is the best study method but research shows it is one of the least effective. The new world of AI augmented work will require us all to learn and upskill constantly, whatever our age and job role.
• Automate intelligently: AI can radically improve speed and accuracy in compliance and talent processes but works best when paired with human judgment and oversight.
“Remember Blockbuster? That company didn’t believe streaming would take off because their customers said they liked browsing in-store,” he said. “But that’s the danger, planning for today’s world, not tomorrow’s. The companies that thrive will be the ones that embrace change before it feels comfortable.”
EDUCATION, AI & PREPARING FOR THE FUTURE OF WORK In a world where technological advancement is accelerating at unprecedented pace, preparing young people for the future is no longer a straightforward task. Mike Lambert, Global Education Director at Inspired Education, explained that with AI, automation, and innovation reshaping every sector, educators are being asked to equip students not only with knowledge and the traditional curricula, but with adaptability, agency, and resilience. Schools have always operated on long timescales,
educating children from birth to adulthood, but the rate of change in the world outside means traditional education models need to adapt to keep pace, he said. Inspired Education has already taken significant steps
in this direction. The group has strategic partnerships with major tech companies, including Meta, and is exploring the educational potential of the metaverse. Virtual reality headsets are already in use across Inspired classrooms, giving students immersive experiences with emerging technology.
“ This is about doing what machines do best, fast, accurate, data-driven work so humans can focus on relationship-building and high-impact decision-making.”

Additionally, a partnership with Century Tech
enables students to receive personalised support in English, maths and science through an AI-based system called Inspired AI. The platform analyses student responses, adapts tasks, and provides targeted feedback or instructional videos. However, Mike believes that use of technology is only
half the picture. The next step is to equip students to become creators, innovators and responsible users of the huge potential that technology offers. Inspired Education is now exploring how to teach AI
literacy and ethics from the very beginning of the school curriculum. One initiative, developed in collaboration with MIT, is called The Day of AI. It introduces students from Year 3 to Year 13 to core AI concepts including basic coding and AI ethics. MIT will ensure the programme is kept up to date, so that students are not learning last year’s curriculum when in the real world change has already take place. “If we’re not giving our children exposure to this
technology now, they won’t be ready for the future we’re heading into,” he said.
