Abstract

The digital transformation taking place globally has necessitated the adoption of artificial intelligence in all sectors of the economy. This adoption of artificial intelligence has also been used by leaders in all industries to help them improve on their performance. The use of AI is witnessed mainly in the performance of the hard aspects of leadership hence leaving the leaders with only the soft aspects of leadership to deal with. Adoption of AI in leadership has contributed to improved agility hence giving the organizations a competitive edge over the organizations that have not yet adopted AI. Agility is when people have the capabilities and understanding to respond quickly to disruption, capitalize on new opportunities and address threats (Adamopoulos, 2021). Despite the adoption of AI having its own challenges the benefits of AI by far out-weigh the challenges encountered while using AI.
