Strategic AI Adoption: Designing Smarter Workflows
This fast-paced seminar helps HR professionals understand where generative AI fits in modern people operations. You’ll learn how to evaluate HR processes for automation, where to keep humans in the loop, and how to balance potential impact with practical feasibility. We’ll also cover how to prepare your team, manage concerns, and lead AI adoption with confidence. This session sets the foundation for HR teams ready to adopt AI intelligently—and is the perfect primer for our full course on AI-driven HR transformation. Key Takeaways: • Identify which HR workflows can be automated, augmented, or left alone • Build a framework to assess AI use case value vs. risk • Learn how to upskill your team and lead change across the org
Session Type: Spotlight Session
Session Tracks: AI, Data & Tech
Learning Outcome 1: Develop a working framework of the unique strengths generative AI possess, where it can fit into your organization, and how to balance feasibility against impact when decided which processes to automate (or not).
Learning Outcome 2: Understand how to "read" your processes and decide which ones should be fully automated vs. augmented, and which ones require a human in the loop. Learn how to identify areas where it’s best to remain patient while this hype cycle of AI slows down.
Learning Outcome 3: Review the importance of upskilling your personnel, naming key AI leaders, and properly managing expectations and fears as your organization transitions.
