Understanding and leveraging new technologies is no longer optional—it's essential. Stay ahead by fostering a team culture of digital curiosity.
1. Create a safe space for experimentation.
Give team members access to artificial intelligence enablers such as Microsoft Copilot to test and learn new technology without negatively affecting ongoing projects.
2. Plan a hackathon.
Ask future leaders who are digital natives to run a hackathon, posing a business issue that teams can help solve using technology.
3. Integrate digital curiosity into key performance indicators.
Reward team members who proactively learn, implement, and share knowledge about new digital tools that enhance productivity.
4. Host regular tech talks.
Monthly sessions where team members share new digital tools or discover technology trends promotes peer learning and keeps everyone up to date with the latest innovations.
5. Introduce a weekly AI assignment.
Assigning a simple AI-based task, such as using ChatGPT to draft an email or summarize a meeting, will help staff become comfortable with AI tools and see their practical applications.
