In this podcast I explain how 30-40% of AI jobs and roles will change, and how HR will become even more strategic as a result. And this is not a story of layoffs or cost reduction: rather we see AI helping to transform HR into a business function that accelerates scale, time to market, customer value, and both employee and customer experience.

I also discuss why and how AI accuracy and trust is going to become enormously more important overnight as agents speed up and automate our human capital work.

I’m very inspired by what’s about to happen and I want you, as a business or HR professional, to understand and thrive in this new world.
