Transforming in turbulent times: opportunities for HR Directors

Following the wave of automation in manufacturing, it is now the white-collar workers’ turn. Banks for instance, have made it clear that they will be cutting thousands of administrative jobs in the short term.

This opens up new opportunities for HR Directors!

The AI transformation of the enterprise has massive workforce- and talent implications. But this presents an opportunity for HR Directors to prove their added value.

HR Directors must serve as the strategic advisor on the organizational redesign and agile ways of working, with specific focus on:

• rewiring and upskilling talent,
• supporting business units in integrating agents into workflows and processes,
• rewriting the critical workforce planning,
• but also retraining staff members who will lose their jobs and guiding them towards other opportunities in the job market.

HR Directors, on your marks! Go!
