Abstract: The article explores the emerging leadership approach of "detail-oriented leadership" as organizations increasingly integrate artificial intelligence (AI) into the workplace. While some predict the end of human management as AI replaces decision-making, the article argues that leadership will instead undergo transformation. Drawing on research, the article explains how detail-oriented leaders maintain close involvement in AI operations while empowering the technology, addressing technical issues and evolving human needs. Several industry examples demonstrate how detail-oriented leaders in customer service, healthcare, and manufacturing have cultivated technical fluency to optimize AI integration. The article concludes by proposing strategies organizations can adopt to develop this emerging competency set at scale, such as technical training programs and career pathways that reward detail orientation. As AI reshapes work, detail-oriented leadership offers a means for leaders to maintain authority and optimize new technologies to augment human capabilities.
