The past couple of years caused quite a bit of volatility to the workplace environment – and if you’re an HR Manager, you know how much of an adjustment all of this required.

Recent headlines have painted a grim picture of job prospects due to generative AI. If we believe everything we read, robots are going to steal our jobs and leave us all homeless. There’s a huge opportunity for CEOs and HR leaders to set the tone for their future of work in a way that benefits both the organization and the employee. Here are our thoughts and ideas on the upside of generative AI and how CEOs and HR Leaders can embrace the change.

If you’re an HR leader, the chances are you’re working on answering the question “do we have the skills and capabilities needed to meet current and future business needs.” Skills determine who we hire, what we pay, what we train, who we promote, and whether or not we can remain competitive. So how do we get visibility of this precious (human) resource?

Internal mobility is making its latest comeback. After we furloughed, laid-off then scrambled to re-hire our way though the last 2 years, we dared to believe 2023 would be a little calmer.

Forward thinking organizations now realize that traditional avenues to “buy” talent are no longer cost effective or sustainable, and are increasingly looking at ways to maximize their existing talent through internal mobility.

AI is here and it’s going to result in complexities and implications to the workforce. Don’t worry, there's still a crucial role for human skills and expertise but now is the time to prepare.
