Generative tools such as ChatGPT, powered by large language models (LLMs), present unique opportunities for augmenting competencies like communication, reasoning, creativity, and problem-solving. Despite these benefits, challenges such as technical complexity, risks of inaccurate outputs, limited reasoning, and deskilling persist. The integration of generative AI tools like ChatGPT in management education demands a rethinking of how we cultivate critical AI skills like prompt engineering to navigate both opportunities and risks effectively. This PDW introduces a skill-based approach on learning to manage the AI, addressing the need to proactively incorporate fostering AI skills such as prompt engineering for management students. The session focuses on (1) making a case for AI skills in management education, (2) how we proactively shape learning processes with AI, and (3) how we adapt our own management teaching to provide learning opportunities with AI. This 90-minute PDW includes two parts: (1) An expert panel discussion on integrating Generative AI into research and teaching, and (2) interactive roundtable sessions to develop actionable strategies for participants to apply in their own contexts. The session is designed to be inclusive, providing foundational knowledge for AI novices while offering advanced strategies for AI-experienced educators.conference contribution
