Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) in general and artificial neural networks (ANN) in particular provide a
tremendous amount of knowledge to improve managerial decision making. Additionally, these same
ANN and AI techniques also serve as knowledge repositories and distribution schema for organizations
that facilitate managerial leadership responsibilities. This article examines how various ANN and other
AI applications may be adapted to facilitate managerial leadership, improve manager performance
and in some cases perform management activities. Further research that classifies leadership styles
and the desired qualities of leaders is reviewed.
