Employees First in the Age of AI: From Management Theory to HR’s Next Operating Model

Dr. Charles-Henri Besseyre des HortsHEC ParisProfessor EmeritusVineet NayarSampark FoundationFounder
Description
This keynote will draw on large-scale transformation experiences across both enterprise and education. The session focuses on what it takes to design organisations where people do the work AI cannot and where HR plays a central role in shaping that system • Clarify where value sits in your organisation and decide what HR must own versus influence as AI reshapes decision making • Redesign work beyond roles and tasks, shifting towards capability systems that prioritise judgment, problem-solving, and adaptability • Define what human advantage means in your business and where to invest in skills that AI cannot replicate at scale • Rethink frontline leadership and transparency, enabling managers to act as decision makers, not just executors of central strategy • Make the shift from reskilling to capability strategy, deciding what to stop, start, and fundamentally redesign to stay competitive

Is AI Making Today's Workforce Obsolete or Deepening Our Ability to Navigate Chaos?

Brian GlaserGoogleVice President & Chief Learning Officer
Description
Most AI transformation efforts are building literacy when they should be building judgment. There is a difference and closing that gap is now the most urgent thing HR can do. • Why VUCA was just the warm-up act and what the BANI era demands of HR leaders now • Embedding an AI-ready mindset before automation makes the decision for you • Why continuous upskilling is the new risk management, not a learning and development luxury • Misalignment between HR, IT, and the business is not a communication problem. It is a power and incentive problem • How leaders who win the budget conversation are the ones connecting development directly to business outcomes • Which roles, career paths and operating models need to be redesigned now ...and which need to be retired • The hardest call in a period of continuous reinvention is not what to build next.... It is what to let go
