The AI-Augmented Leader: The Value of an MBA in the Era of Intelligent Systems
Thursday, 14 May 2026
18.00 (EEST time)
Speaker:
Prof. Leslie Szamosi
Dean of School of Business
Director of the Pan-European Executive MBA
University of York Europe Campus
Webinar Overview:
As artificial intelligence (AI) transitions from a tool to a “collaborative partner” in the workplace, the value of an MBA is being redefined rather than replaced. While AI excels at processing vast datasets and automating routine digital tasks, it cannot replicate nuanced, human-centric, leadership that drives successful organisations.
This webinar explores how an MBA provides a critical bridge between technical AI capabilities and strategic business objectives. We will discuss how and why high-level decision-making, which requires empathy, creativity, and ethical judgment, remains a uniquely human responsibility that business schools are uniquely positioned to cultivate.
AI will increasingly inform decisions—but leadership remains a human act. An MBA continues to matter because it develops what algorithms cannot: context, responsibility, and strategic intent.
The event will take place in the frame of the Pan-European Executive MBA programme offered by the University of York Europe Campus and the University of Strasbourg. Participants will have the opportunity to attend a short presentation of the Pan-European Executive MBA programme, a world class dual degree programme leading to two MBA degrees awarded by the University of York and the University of Strasbourg.
