GBSH Leadership Series: The Human at Work

How will humans need to adapt to new realities of a world where machines can think? What will be the new leadership agenda, and how will work evolve? Nora Colton and Jean Gomes showcase interviews with leading voices to explore the leadership challenges facing managers in an automating world.

The third event in the UCL GBSH Leadership Series brings together leading thinkers in this field, including:

Dr Susan Thomas: Director for Google Health in the UK. She joined Google after 15 years of consulting in the health and life sciences industry, most recently as a senior partner at Ernst & Young.

During her time in consulting, Susan worked across the NHS, with a focus on improving clinical quality and operational performance - not least through the incorporation of digital technologies. She leads Google’s work with the NHS across various products and services and is the clinical lead for its machine learning work in health.
