AI at Work: Rethinking Productivity, People, and Patrons

AI at Work: Rethinking Productivity, People, and Patrons

Monday, December 7, 2026 (11:30 AM - 1:15 PM) (CST)

Description

Artificial intelligence is no longer just something we're hearing about. It's changing how businesses operate, how employees do their jobs, and how decisions are made. But with so much attention on AI, what does it really mean for your business?

Find the answer to this question at MetroNorth's Annual Meeting Luncheon as Dr. Seth Ketron, Associate Professor of Marketing at the University of St. Thomas, provides a timely presentation about how AI is transforming the workplace and what employers need to know.

Dr. Ketron will explore three important areas every business leader should be thinking about:

Productivity: What can AI help us accomplish, and how can businesses thoughtfully integrate it into everyday operations?
People: What can't—or shouldn't—AI replace? How do we balance new technology with the human skills, relationships, and judgment that remain essential?
Patrons: How is AI changing customer expectations, behaviors, and purchasing decisions, and what does that mean for businesses trying to reach and serve them?


Whether your organization is already using AI or you're still trying to figure out where to begin, this is a conversation you won't want to miss. Come away with a better understanding of the opportunities, challenges, and changes ahead—and what they could mean for your business.

The luncheon will also include recognition of our 2026 highlights, volunteer recognition, and the election of incoming board members. Register your entire team – this is a program you won’t want to miss! Members: $45; General Public; $55. Table Sponsor: $315 (Premium Location for 6); Event Sponsorship: $500 (Premium Marketing, Premium Table of 6).
