AI and technological disruption are forcing HR leaders to rethink their role from functional operator to enterprise shaper. This is an unprecedented opportunity for HR leaders to reshape how they build organisational capability and secure the next generation of leadership.
Beyond efficiency gains, AI challenges long-held assumptions about skills, jobs, decision-making, and workforce trust. HR must now lead on ethical governance, data literacy, and human–machine collaboration, while ensuring productivity gains do not erode culture or inclusion. This requires strategic shifts in capability building, operating models, and influence with the business.
We are delighted to partner with Eightfold, the market-leading Talent Intelligence platform, for an exciting breakfast event discussing the non-negotiable shifts required for HR executives to navigate this era confidently.
The session will be hosted by James Ballard (Managing Partner at Annapurna) and will likely follow the below questions:
- Which aspects of HR strategy must change most urgently to remain credible and influential in an AI-enabled organisation? How do we implement agile operating models?
- How should HR redefine workforce planning, skills, and jobs when AI capabilities evolve faster than traditional role design? How can we future-proof talent pipelines to support business strategy?
- How do we uncover the business-critical data needed to inform and execute the organisation’s skills strategy?
The question is no longer whether AI will change HR, but whether HR can move fast enough to shape outcomes, balancing innovation, risk, and the human experience at scale.
