LHH's General Assembly and EZRA Brands Launch AI Leadership Transformation
Program: Pioneering Multi-Faceted Learning for Future-Ready Leaders

Only 34% of global leaders have undergone AI-specific leadership training.
This new program bridges this gap, empowering leaders to confidently steer
AI-driven change.

NEW YORK CITY, NY / ACCESS Newswire / October 9, 2025 / LHH, the integrated
professional talent solutions provider and global business unit of the Adecco
Group, today announced the launch of the AI Leadership Transformation
Program. The six-month program combines General Assembly's expert-led AI
curriculum with EZRA's digital coaching to equip leaders with the skills and
confidence needed to lead successful teams in an AI-first workforce.

Recent General Assembly research (https://pr.report/ewpe)  shows that less
than half of companies offer leadership-specific AI training leaving a
critical gap in leadership readiness to deliver on AI transformation goals.

A Comprehensive Approach for Enterprise Leaders

The AI Leadership Transformation Program is designed specifically for
enterprise-level strategic leaders from mid-level manager to c-suite. Going
beyond technical knowledge, it equips leaders to create conditions for lasting
change by:

·      Fostering open environments that encourage experimentation.

·      Applying change management best practices to support individuals
frictionlessly.

·      Building continuous learning cultures to sustain adoption.

Program Components

·      General Assembly's AI for Leaders: Superpowered Track: An
intensive curriculum covering agentic AI strategy, implementation frameworks
and ethical governance. Leaders learn to integrate AI strategically across
organizational levels and unlock enterprise-wide value.

·      EZRA's 1:1 Coaching: Personalized coaching ensures behavioral
change through daily workflow integration. Certified GenAI specialist coaches
translate AI expertise into sustainable leadership habits.

·      Expert Speaker Series: Three dedicated 1-hour sessions featuring
Fortune 500 AI leaders, academics and industry pioneers provide real-world
insights.

·      Leadership Development Sessions: Group-based sessions empower
leadership teams to collaboratively address AI transformation challenges and
drive strategic alignment.

"Successful AI transformations start at the top, with the leaders who set
strategic direction, control budgets and guide digital transformation,"
said Daniele Grassi, CEO of General Assembly. "This program is designed
exclusively for leaders to build the knowledge, confidence and skills to lead
AI transformation and unlock the full value of AI investments."

"The biggest barrier to AI transformation isn't technology, it's a leader's
mindset," said Nick Goldberg, CEO of EZRA. "Leaders can pour over AI
strategy, but real change happens when coaching rewires how they operate
day-to-day. This program is not just teaching AI skills; it's inviting leaders
to shift behaviors within themselves to embrace and see value from investments
in AI. This is where real change happens."

Proof of Impact

An EZRA case study with a top global tech company demonstrated measurable
behavioral change from the coaching component:

·      Nearly 40% of participants increased their use of GenAI in
decision-making.

·      Over 20% expanded AI use in prioritization and routine task
management.

·      Confidence and understanding of ethical AI use rose by more than
10%.

Urgent Need for Leadership AI Training

Adecco Group research (https://pr.report/ewpf)  underscores the need for
programs like this: only 10% of organizations are considered future-ready, and
just one-third of leaders are engaging with AI development initiatives. Only
34% of surveyed leaders participated in AI training tailored to leadership in
the past year, and fewer than half are confident in their teams' AI knowledge.
