AI can boost creativity, but is it killing collaboration? It'a true, tools like ChatGPT can help and also hurt your team's ability to innovate together. I’ll walk you through research-backed insights showing how over-reliance on AI can lead to sameness, less surprising ideas, and fewer true breakthroughs. Creativity isn’t a solo sport, it’s a team sport, and great teams thrive on psychological safety, cognitive diversity, and yes, a little friction.

If you lead a team and want more innovation, better brainstorming, and stronger collaboration, watch this before your next meeting. And no, copying this video into ChatGPT for a summary isn’t going to cut it.
