“Creating a work context where AI is both reliable and emotionally trusted requires a deliberate alignment of technological interventions to enhance cognitive trust with benevolent and transparent leadership. By combining benevolent leadership with transparent and participatory AI practices, organizations can help employees gain clarity on AI’s role so they are more likely to embrace it as an ally in their professional journey.”
