Imagine a world where AI suddenly vanished overnight. What skills would contract managers need to thrive?
In an AI-less landscape, the emphasis would shift back to the core human skills that have always been at the heart of effective contract management. Analytical thinking would become even more critical, as contract managers rely on their own prowess to analyze complex data and make informed decisions.
The art of negotiation would take center stage, requiring contract managers to sharpen their skills to ensure favorable terms and outcomes. Building strong relationships with stakeholders would be key, focusing on creating trust and understanding to facilitate smoother contract execution and management.
Attention to detail would be essential, as a keen eye would be needed to catch potential issues and ensure compliance with contract terms. Additionally, the ability to creatively solve problems and navigate challenges without AI assistance would be a valuable asset.
While AI offers incredible efficiencies, these foundational skills remain vital in any scenario.
Thinking about these highly unlikely scenarios is something to do once in a while. It will help you think on risk, development and your own role.
