“The programming language of the future is human.” says NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang (World Government Summit 2024)
This isn’t just a soundbite—it’s a seismic shift. The tech divide is no longer about who can code, but who can communicate, contextualize, and connect. AI has democratized access to computational power, but it’s domain expertise, emotional intelligence, and diverse perspective that now drive real progress. We’re entering an era where the ability to translate complexity into clarity, and data into decisions, is the new superpower.
I’ve recently been asked to help expose audiences in Africa and the Middle East to the power of AEI (artificial emotional intelligence). Leaders and organizations need to surface the strategic, emotional, and cultural intelligence embedded in their work. CX as a skilled perspective and worldview is a perfect foundation for this. Whether through mindset contrast maps, scenario-based learning, or persona-driven design, etc. Success isn’t about mastering machines. It’s about mastering meaning.
