Session: Creating More Hours in a Day - How AI Helps Program Leaders Reclaim Balance
In a world where program leaders constantly juggle priorities, meetings, and metrics, time often feels like our scarcest resource. But what if technology could actually give us more of it?
In this talk, Prerana Karmokar, PMO Director with over a decade of experience leading complex enterprise programs, explores how AI can shift from being a disruptor to becoming our most trusted ally. Drawing from real-world experiences, she shares how embracing AI-powered tools and workflows can simplify decision-making, automate repetitive tasks, and create the mental space needed for strategic thinking and human connection.
This isn’t a session about technology replacing us, it’s about how women leaders can leverage it to enhance both productivity and well-being. Attendees will walk away with practical insights on:
1. Redefining productivity from “doing more” to “thinking better”
2. Partnering with AI to focus on impact, not activity
3. Using technology to reclaim time and energy for what truly matters at work and beyond
In a rapidly evolving world, balance is no longer about time management, it’s about intelligent collaboration. This talk invites leaders to see AI not as competition, but as a catalyst to create more hours in their day and more space in their lives.
