NorthStar Skills Academy in a Nutshell
As AI gets faster, human judgment becomes the advantage.
NorthStar Skills Academy is a six-month simulation program designed to strengthen the human skills that grow more valuable in an AI-leveraged world.
Grounded in the World Economic Forum’s Future of Jobs insights, the program places participants inside realistic leadership scenarios where uncertainty, pressure, and AI-leveraged acceleration surface real blind spots and build real strengths.
Through action, not theory, participants develop critical human skills required to lead with confidence as AI reshapes how decisions are made.
Why NorthStar Skills Academy Exists
AI is accelerating faster than most organizations can adapt.
Collecting analysis for decisions that once took weeks now happens in minutes.
Expectations are rising. Roles are shifting.
This is not a crisis but a transition.
In an AI-leveraged environment, value no longer comes from having the fastest answer.
It comes from knowing what to focus on, what to question, and when human judgment matters most.
NorthStar Skills Academy responds not with reassurance, but with capability-building, so you retain agency.
This is not a course. It is an experience. One that strengthens the human skills that compound as AI expands.
Learning Objective
To develop leaders who think clearly, decide well, and act with confidence in an AI-leveraged future.
NorthStar Skills Academy builds the critical human capabilities highlighted by the World Economic Forum, including:
Critical Thinking
Analytical Judgment
Resilience
Influence
Deep Listening
Imagination
Through immersive simulations, participants learn to navigate ambiguity, challenge assumptions, and make better decisions with AI rather than being led by it.
The ‘Future of Jobs’ Report 2025
The Future of Jobs Report 2025 brings together insights from over 1,000 leading global employers, representing more than 14 million workers across 22 industries and 55 economies.
Its message is clear: as automation expands, human skills do not disappear—they differentiate.
NorthStar Skills Academy is built on this foundation, translating research into lived experience, so participants don’t just understand what skills matter, but can apply them under real-world pressure.
