Executive Inquiry Lab: Collective Sensemaking in the Age of AI

Hosted by MIT Sloan CIO Symposium

Wednesday, September 30, 2026

11:30 AM–1:00 PM ET

About

How can executives make better decisions in an age of abundant intelligence? Join us for the first public experiment in a new model of executive learning that combines human conversation, AI-assisted synthesis, editorial judgment, and continuous sensemaking. Rather than listening to presentations, you'll participate in a facilitated executive inquiry exploring human judgment in an age of abundant intelligence using the MIT Sloan CIO Symposium Inquiry Framework. Along the way, you'll experience how structured dialogue and AI can help groups surface new perspectives, identify patterns, and deepen collective understanding of complex leadership challenges. The session will be recorded for post-event analysis using the MIT Sloan CIO Symposium's Collective Sensemaking process. Following the event, participants will receive an Executive Insights memo identifying patterns, tensions, and questions that emerged from the discussion. Participants will also receive a printed copy of the 2026 MIT Sloan CIO Symposium Report, the first prototype of this Collective Sensemaking approach. Because this is an interactive working session, participation is limited to 40 executives and thought leaders. Attendance is by request so that we can create a diverse and highly engaging discussion.
