Description
• Where should HR actively own the design of the enterprise, not just influence it? • How do you redesign work when decision-making is shared between humans, AI and automation? • What governance models enable faster, higher-quality people decisions without losing control? • How do you align skills, workforce strategy, rewards and technology into a coherent system? • Why is organisational design the critical enabler of AI success, and where are companies getting it wrong? • What capabilities must a CHRO build to operate credibly at this level: architect, operator, economist or ethicist?
