What plausible actions might decision-makers at Athabasca University consider taking to avoid industry dissonance in the face of technologies like Chat GPT? 1. Address your initial post as if it were strategic advice to the new President of AU, Alex Clark. In effect, your post is the start of a strategic conversation.* 2. Be specific about what dissonances the new AI technologies can create for the university. Make sure your opinions are backed up with credible references. 3. Suggest at least one concrete course of action. Suggesting doing a Strategic Foresight exercise is NOT a course of action for this exercise. Richard *A strategic conversation is a communication about an organization’s future direction. The goal of a strategic conversation is to build a shared understanding and a collective sense of direction that can guide the organization in making informed decisions and taking effective action. The outcome of a strategic conversation should be a clear and actionable plan that aligns with the organization’s values and objectives. The point of saying do not suggest a foresight exercise as a course of action in my previous point is that I want you to DO a foresight exercise to guide your suggestions. Many of you want to improve your communication skills. Knowing how to do a “strategic conversation” is but one excellent example of superior communication skills. 300-400 words with in text citations and APA format citations
