How many hours per week should professionals invest in AI learning?

If you are not spending hours a week learning, listening to new ideas, and trying to improve your emotional perspectives then you are failing your team.

You would reasonably expect all of these things from people around you. You need to be leading the way. It’s not about hierarchy, it’s about action.

I don't have time

In my experience that is rarely the reason. You are likely choosing to prioritise other tasks over this.

You could decline four hours of meetings this week and nothing would change. You know what those meetings are: the ones you miss when you are ill or travelling, and nothing happens when you do. Just stop doing those. Decline them and chose to do something that adds value to the business, like talk to a prospect or a customer.

Use the time to make a real difference to the team and for your own future.
