The rising impact of cutting-edge technologies and increased hype around AI have added additional layers of complexity to the unique challenges faced by HR leaders. Economic conditions and disruptions have urged CHROs to embrace innovation and offer agility and flexibility to drive productivity and digital outcomes. However, a recent Gartner study reveals that 60% of HR leaders are uncertain about the impact of evolving technology trends, such as generative AI, on HR and talent.
In the swiftly transforming landscape, the ongoing revolution in emerging technologies is poised to significantly reshape how organizations recruit, nurture and extract value from their workforce. What initiatives will you undertake to craft a future-ready HR technology adoption roadmap and stay ahead of the widespread integration of AI that fulfills future business needs?
Join your peers to discuss practical solutions for adopting trending technologies, managing AI applications and planning for the talent transformations to come.
