Intelligence
The future of intelligence isn’t human or machine — it’s both.
This short course helps professionals cut through the AI hype, understand collective intelligence, and gain practical tools to work smarter in a fast-changing world.
AI dominates the headlines. Collective intelligence shapes our workplaces every day. Yet few professionals have the tools to understand how these forces actually work — or how to use them wisely.

AI isn’t just powering chatbots — it’s shaping how decisions are made in healthcare, finance, and even government.
Collective intelligence isn’t abstract theory — it’s what makes citizen assemblies work, open-source projects thrive, and diverse teams outperform homogeneous ones.
Yet too often, leaders are left with hype, confusion, or tools that don’t fit their needs. This programme gives you the clarity to understand these forces, and the practical frameworks to decide how they can support your work, your team, and your future.
This course is designed for curious professionals who want clarity on AI and collective intelligence. No prior technical knowledge is assumed.

Who is this course for?
It’s a good fit if you are:
- Hearing about AI everywhere but want to really understand how it works and why it matters.
- A manager or team leader exploring how groups, and machines, can shape decision-making.
- A strategist, innovator, or policy thinker thinking ahead to the future of work and leadership.
- A recent graduate or early career professional eager for a smart, low-barrier entry point into these ideas.
- Considering a longer LIS programme (MASc or MBA) but want to start with a shorter course.
Structure of the course
The course consists 3 online sessions.
Each session runs for 90 minutes across three weeks. A format designed to fit around busy schedules. You’ll have space to dip in, explore new ideas, and immediately apply practical tools to your work. Think of this course as a gateway into the wider world of collective and artificial intelligence: a chance to gain insights that will help you design smarter teams, make better decisions, and lead more effectively.
Over three interactive sessions, you’ll explore how humans and machines think, separately and together, and discover practical tools you can apply right away.
