Jacqueline Kucera: AI in the Service of Democracy?

The presentation about AI and Parliament will focus on the integration of artificial intelligence in parliamentary services, highlighting current projects and future goals. Presently, a pilot project is being developed for real-time transcription, which aims to enhance accessibility during parliamentary sessions.

Looking ahead, the Parliament is exploring the use of a Chatbot to assist with research, improving the efficiency of information retrieval. In the future, AI will also play a significant role in indexing parliamentary objects, press articles, and literature, helping to streamline document management and improve searchability.

  • Jacqueline Kucera : « L’avenir sera humain, non pas en excluant la machine, mais en remettant la conscience au cœur de la technologie »

    Leader transformationnelle et experte en innovation centrée sur l’humain, Dr. Jacqueline Kucera invite dirigeants et organisations à appréhender l’intelligence artificielle avec audace et clarté, pour que le progrès soit synonyme d’émancipation.

    Quand la donnée rencontre l’humain : réinventer le leadership à l’ère de l’IA.
  • Ich habe im April 2025 am ersten HerImpact-Event teilgenommen. Ohne grosse Erwartungen bin ich ins Viadukt nach Zürich gereist und war begeistert: Drei erfahrene Frauen in Führungspositionen haben aus ihren Erfahrungen im Berufsalltag berichtet. Es war bereichernd, ihnen zuzuhören und von ihnen lernen zu können. Maras Satz, dass man so schnell wie möglich aus einem Zug aussteigen soll, der in die falsche Richtung fährt, weil der Weg, den man zurückgehen muss, immer länger wird, wenn man noch länger in die falsche Richtung fährt, werde ich nie vergessen. Zudem hat es gut getan, zu sehen, dass man mit so vielen Erfahrungen, die man gemacht hat, nicht alleine ist. Und genau deshalb muss sich etwas ändern. Wir müssen etwas ändern. Jede Person für sich und doch alle zusammen. So schaffen wir die Zukunft, in der wir gesund leben und arbeiten können. Ich kann den Anlass all jenen empfehlen, die sich für neues Leadership und New Work interessieren.

    Timely and encouraging

    From the very first page, I was drawn into Jacqueline’s story, captivated by her warm and evocative voice. She’s incredibly sharp and at the peak of her professional career, but her unique combination of curiosity, intellect, and humility makes this guide feel as approachable and grounded as if she were personally coaching you over coffee.
    It’s both refreshing and empowering to see a woman’s perspective that not only challenges the status quo in the world of work but also embraces opportunities for innovation and growth—ones that traditional patriarchal structures often ignore! Her optimism is rooted in a deep, thoughtful understanding that shows us how we can navigate and thrive in this evolving landscape together.
    I believe this guide is a must-read for any woman looking for a balanced and inspiring vision of the future of work.

  • 10 Stimmen zur Frauensession: «Ich möchte die Schweizer Politiklandschaft diverser machen»

    Jacqueline Kucera, Leiterin Parlamentsbibliothek, 57 Jahre alt, Neuenburg Wieso ich an der Frauensession bin: Mir ist es sehr wichtig, dass im Bundeshaus für einmal nur Frauen zusammen sein können. Der Vibe ist komplett anders, als wenn die Männer auch hier sind. Ich arbeite jetzt seit einigen Jahren in diesem politischen Umfeld und mir ist es wichtig zu sehen, welche Anliegen die Frauen zusammentragen und wie anders die Debatte ist. Man spürt den grossen Respekt und die Achtung untereinander. Das zeigt mir, dass wir alle wissen, wie schwierig es sein kann, als Frau, Mutter, Care-Arbeiterin so weit zu kommen und sich zu engagieren.

    Was ich mir erhoffe: Für mich geht es darum, ein Zeichen zu setzen. Und was es auslösen wird, ist die Verbundenheit unter den Frauen. Und die Motivation, sich zu engagieren.
