When AI Does the Work,
What Holds the Organisation Together?

An evening exploring human cognitive traps, executive judgement, and thinking in systems.

Thursday 3 December 2026 · 16:00–20:00 · doors 15:30

House of Startups · 9 rue du Laboratoire, L-1911 Luxembourg

Early bird €35 until Thursday 19 November · Standard €45

The question

When AI does the work, who makes sure it all still holds together?

AI now drafts, analyses and answers faster than any of us. The doing is increasingly taken care of. What is not taken care of automatically is the whole: whether the parts of your firm still make sense together — decisions, responsibilities, structures, and the people inside them.

Holding that whole together is human work. It is leaders who notice when parts drift apart, whose judgement connects what the tools cannot see, and who keep the firm coherent while everyone is deep inside their own tools. That capacity erodes quietly, through delayed decisions, duplicated effort and roles that no longer fit.

On 3 December we look at it from two angles: what happens in your own mind when you work with AI, and how your firm holds together as a system. We close with where Luxembourg stands today, based on CBFLux's own research.

What you will leave with

Leave knowing who holds your organisation together as AI takes over the work — and where to start.

Who it’s for

Built for leaders who carry responsibility for the whole, not just their part.

You are a leader in a 10–20 person firm in Luxembourg. Whether you're still keeping AI at arm's length or already building it into your firm, your people look to you to set the direction. That means moving from doing the work to holding the organisation together.

Speakers

Three perspectives on the system.

Avy Raizada
Keynote 1

Avy Raizada

Cyberpsychologist & Transformation Advisor

If AI takes over more of the work, what happens to the thinking? Drawing on cyberpsychology, Avy explores what it might mean to stay human inside AI-assisted systems: how we trust, delegate, oversee and keep learning. Using self-regulated learning (forethought, performance, self-reflection) as a lens, he suggests individual habits may feed back into how a whole firm decides. He asks whether efficiency and human-centred design could be partners rather than trade-offs, and offers a simple plan, perform, reflect loop to test on your own work.

Jean Bettingen
Keynote 2

Jean Bettingen

Co-founder & Partner, BD&P

AI can make individual activities faster, smarter and more effective. But what happens when improvements in one part of an organisation do not translate into progress for the whole? Jean Bettingen explores the challenge of organisational coherence and introduces Systemic Resilience as the capacity to understand and deliberately develop the conditions that enable organisations to remain coherent amid change.

  3. 16:10

    Keynote 1: Human in the Loop, Leader in the System

    Avy Raizada · Cyberpsychologist & Transformation Advisor

    AI now drafts, analyses and answers for us, and handing it the work can save real time. Yet each hand-over may also quietly change how we think: what we trust, what we check and which skills we keep practising. Cyberpsychology, the study of how people think and behave with technology, helps us notice these shifts.

  4. 16:35

    Keynote 2: Beyond AI Adoption: The Challenge of Organisational Coherence

    Jean Bettingen · Co-founder & Partner, BD&P

    Artificial intelligence is creating new possibilities across organisations, transforming how work is performed, information is processed and decisions are made. Yet improvements in individual activities do not necessarily strengthen the organisation as a whole.
