Workers trust judgment over tools, and do not yet trust agents

Sep 7, 2026 · Issue 6 · 3 sources, 3 articles

Who is affected and how

középvezető

Resistance from experienced staff should be treated as a concern about protecting knowledge, not as inhibition.

HR-vezető

AI rollout communication should address the experienced 35–54 age group separately.

Narrative: Leaders trust, employees hide
