Wild technology sends a storm into the organisation

This is a Danish-language opinion piece (debat) from Finans, published 12 October 2026 and written by Jim Nielsen, managing partner at Hildebrandt & Brandi | Eve by Eraneos. Finans notes that such pieces express the author's own views. The title translates as "Wild technology sends a storm into the organisation."

Nielsen's central question is whether it is long-term leadership in a short-term world to put as much artificial intelligence as possible into operation. The alternative he sets against it is keeping to the existing track, working with the traditional performance measures and delivering the small, marginal improvements business is used to. The standfirst adds a twist: everyone sees AI coming in the long run, but when the business case is slow to appear, continuing business as usual may be the more long-term choice.

He also asks whether leaders are ready to run the new organisations that will be populated by AI agents. His own assessment is that in Danish business the jury is still out on how to weigh these options.

Only the opening of the piece was available, and the text breaks off just as Nielsen begins to explain why the jury is still deliberating. His full argument, any evidence he offers and his recommendations are therefore not covered here. What the excerpt does establish is the tension he frames: the pressure to commit heavily to AI against the pull of incremental improvement while returns remain uncertain, and the leadership questions that AI agents in the workforce raise.
