What if HR is still thinking too small about AI?

In this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, David Green is joined by Paul, Chief Evangelist and Talent Strategist at Visier, to explore why traditional transformation approaches may no longer be fit for purpose, and what HR needs to do differently to keep pace.

Join them, as they tackle some of the biggest questions facing the function today:

Is the current framing of AI in HR too narrow?
Does HR need to operate more like finance to remain relevant?
What does it take to move from pilots to real, enterprise-wide impact?
And as AI becomes embedded across the business, does people analytics become less visible… or more critical than ever?
