Artificial Intelligence and the Evolution of Managerial Expertise in the Digital Age: How AI has Impacted Managerial Skills

Abstract

This empirical study revolves around managers using AI in their daily operations and decision-making. The aim was to understand how AI-driven recruitment, time management, and communication have helped their managerial skill improvement. 467 managers from different sectors participated in the survey, and structural equation Modelling was built. The result showed that AI-augmented recruitment, time management, and communication have enhanced managers' decision-making competency, therefore increasing how they plan, organize, or control things. The findings emphasize the importance of integrating AI into key managerial functions to improve both decision-making processes and organizational performance, offering practical insights for organizations looking to leverage AI for strategic advantage.
