<!--StartFragment -->AI is becoming real with every new application and meaningful use case transforming how organizations create value, make decisions, and innovate. This Masterclass empowers leaders to understand what’s behind this transformation and how to leverage it strategically and responsibly. Participants will gain a clear understanding of how generative AI and large language models (LLMs) work, uncovering their potential to enhance performance, productivity, and customer engagement. The session then explores the AI frontier with Agents and agentic AI—systems capable of reasoning, planning, and acting autonomously toward defined business goals. These new frontiers represent a shift from AI as a tool to AI as an active collaborator in strategy execution and operations. Finally, the Masterclass highlights how these technologies are reshaping organizational structures, leadership roles, and workforce capabilities.<br />

<td style="width: 562px;"><strong>Seungah Sarah Lee is an Assistant Professor of Entrepreneurship and Organizations at HEC Paris, Doha. </strong><br />
Her research broadly explores how global models, scripts, and norms become transmitted and adapted to influence organizational forms, practices, and change. She is particularly interested in how nation-states and organizations negotiate the changing demands of a globalized world and adapt models for sustainable development to foster (social) entrepreneurship and innovation in their local contexts. More recently, she has been involved in collaborative research partnerships that examine how quasi-governmental organizations broker and facilitate collaborative opportunities between startup ventures and beneficiaries for societal impact. <br />
Her work has been funded by the Fulbright-Hayes Fellowship, Sheikh Saud bin Saqr Al Qasimi Foundation for Policy Research, and the Stanford Abbasi Program on Islamic Studies and published in journals such as the Academy of Management Perspectives, Scientific Reports, World Development, Research in the Sociology of Organizations, in numerous book chapters, as well as policy research reports. <br />
Seungah also has extensive experience working in the Middle East, the US, and East Asia. She has led and advised on organizational strategies, designed adaptive leadership programs, developed impact evaluation frameworks, and provided policy research and advisory services. She also worked as the interim director of a corporate philanthropic foundation, overseeing foundation strategy, board governance, and grant project development. </td>

<td style="width: 562px;"><strong>Seungah Sarah Lee is an Assistant Professor of Entrepreneurship and Organizations at HEC Paris, Doha. </strong><br />
Her research broadly explores how global models, scripts, and norms become transmitted and adapted to influence organizational forms, practices, and change. She is particularly interested in how nation-states and organizations negotiate the changing demands of a globalized world and adapt models for sustainable development to foster (social) entrepreneurship and innovation in their local contexts. More recently, she has been involved in collaborative research partnerships that examine how quasi-governmental organizations broker and facilitate collaborative opportunities between startup ventures and beneficiaries for societal impact. <br />
Her work has been funded by the Fulbright-Hayes Fellowship, Sheikh Saud bin Saqr Al Qasimi Foundation for Policy Research, and the Stanford Abbasi Program on Islamic Studies and published in journals such as the Academy of Management Perspectives, Scientific Reports, World Development, Research in the Sociology of Organizations, in numerous book chapters, as well as policy research reports. <br />
Seungah also has extensive experience working in the Middle East, the US, and East Asia. She has led and advised on organizational strategies, designed adaptive leadership programs, developed impact evaluation frameworks, and provided policy research and advisory services. She also worked as the interim director of a corporate philanthropic foundation, overseeing foundation strategy, board governance, and grant project development. </td>

By combining personal purpose, futures thinking, systems mapping, and collaborative innovation design, participants will learn to anticipate change, lead inclusively, and shape sustainable ventures.
