Andrew McAfee Biography
Andrew McAfee, PhD, is an award-winning principal research scientist at MIT’s Center for Digital Business, co-founder of the Initiative on the Digital Economy, Google Technology and Society’s inaugural visiting fellow and co-founder of Workhelix, a pioneering startup that helps organizations harness AI's power for workforce optimization. A globally renowned authority on the digital technologies that are changing the world, he is a six-time Thinkers50 honoree. Offering deeply researched insights that help organizations thrive in the age of AI, McAfee is an adept analyst on the trends that are reshaping leadership, management, competition and the future of work. His latest book, "The Geek Way," named a best book of 2023 by The Economist, examines how today’s digital-first organizations are succeeding thanks to a modern management ethos borrowed from Silicon Valley. McAfee's "geeky leadership" blueprint shows organizations how to reimagine themselves for unparalleled success in the tech-driven era. By following the example of the freewheeling and fast-moving “business geeks,” he explains, organizations naturally become more agile, more innovative and massively scalable. A highly sought-after advisor, gifted speaker, and forward-looking futurist, McAfee helps leaders gain a more in-depth understanding of how to prosper in today’s constantly changing technological and economic landscapes.

Andrew McAfee Speaking Topics
ChatGPT and other types of Generative AI (GenAI), a new and powerful type of artificial intelligence, has taken us by surprise – we weren’t expecting its capabilities to appear so soon. According to Andrew McAfee, principal research scientist at the MIT Sloan School of Management who was named among the top 50 management thinkers in the world, GenAI is already transforming jobs and industries and delivering unprecedented creativity and productivity boosts. However, these systems still have serious flaws that need to be addressed in order for them to realize their full impact. In this fundamentally optimistic talk, McAfee stresses that GenAI will improve the business world and our lives, and that many of their harms are overstated.
Over the past two decades, big tech companies have innovated and experimented with the standard Industrial Era business model, creating organizations that are now dominating the global economy. How do they do it, and will the bubble burst? In this talk, MIT digital economist and data scientist Andrew McAfee, co-founder of MIT’s Initiative on the Digital Economy, takes audiences on a deep dive into his upcoming book, “The Geek Way.” He pulls back the curtain on what makes these “geek companies” consistently strong performers, how they excel at disrupting industries, and what traditional companies can learn from their freewheeling, fast-moving, evidence-driven, egalitarian, argumentative and autonomous cultures.
