AI Boss vs. Human Manager: Which One Wins?

As AI integration in management grows, the debate rages on. Proponents argue AI enhances efficiency through streamlined decision-making and consistent task management. Critics counter that AI lacks emotional intelligence vital for trust and team dynamics.

Research suggests a hybrid approach combining AI and human oversight may yield the best results. AI can handle administrative tasks, freeing managers to focus on strategy and mentorship.
