    How to Prepare Your Workforce for Jobs That Do Not Exist Yet

    Every company wants to become AI-native. But who is preparing the workforce for what comes next? In the most recent HR Leaders Podcast episode, I had an important conversation with Bijal Shah, CEO & Board Director at Guild. She explains why becoming AI-native is not simply a technology upgrade.

    Why 80% of HR Teams Are Doing Strategic Work Wrong

    We spend all our time fixing business workflows, so why is HRs own workflow still broken? In the most recent HR Leaders Podcast episode, I had an inspiring conversation with Jeffrey Schmitz, Former Chief People Officer at Zebra Technologies. He explains how his team successfully restructured their entire HR operating model by separating daily tactical operations from long-term talent strategy. By replacing fragmented, manual support with a centralised service hub and self-service workflows, Zebra built a scalable foundation for digital transformation while keeping culture at the centre. 5 things you’ll learn from this episode: The structural model shift that allowed Zebra to transition from 60 HR Business Partners down to 8 The simple "start at the centre" rule that turned daily support tickets into an operational data goldmine The non-negotiable tech stack foundation HR teams must build before attempting to deploy AI tools The single candidate trait Zebra looks for that matters far more than rare technical AI expertise The culture stewardship strategy Zebra used to navigate a massive M&A carve-out and hybrid work shift 🙏 Thank you to our series partner, Arist Meet the end-to-end AI agent for enablement that finds talent gaps, builds personalized interventions, and delivers learning directly in the flow of work → https://arist.com/resources/webinars/agent?utm_source=hr_leaders_podcast&utm_medium=sponsored&utm_campaign=hr_leaders_podcast_cr_june_2026 See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    Why Benefits Remain One of HR’s Biggest Data Blind Spots

    Employee benefits can be the second-biggest people cost, yet many global organisations cannot clearly see what they offer, what they spend, or what value each provider delivers. In this episode of the HR Leaders Podcast, I had an inspiring conversation with Chris Bruce, CEO and Co-Founder at Origin. He explains why fragmented policies, spreadsheets, and local systems have kept benefits out of strategic business conversations. 🎓 In this episode, Chris discusses: Why one of the biggest people costs remains largely invisible, leaving leadership teams unable to make informed decisions about benefits.How AI changes a 12.5-year manual challenge by turning thousands of policies, handbooks, and agreements into structured data.Why benefits data must live inside daily workflows if organisations want it to remain accurate after the initial review.What co-creating technology with multinational employers reveals that industry expertise alone cannot uncover.How benefits can become a strategic workforce lever, supporting cost control, employee experience, expansion, compliance, and retention. 🙏 Thank you to our series partner, 365 Talents Download the free toolkit and get your 2026 skills strategy moving faster → https://365talents.com/en/lp/hr-skills-strategy-toolkit/?utm_source=hr_leaders&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=july_2026 See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

    How to Lead Under Pressure Without Losing Yourself

    In this episode of the HR Leaders Podcast, Mechelle Monroe, former Global Chief People Officer for WPP Open X, Team Coca-Cola at WPP, explores how people leaders can support others without losing touch with what they need themselves. Mechelle breaks emotional resilience into practical habits, including scheduled emotional maintenance, conscious breathing, honest self-talk, protected meals, movement, reflection, and knowing when to say no. She also explains how naming an emotion, questioning the story behind it, and creating a clear end to the working day can stop difficult moments from following leaders home. As work becomes faster and more technical, emotional intelligence and emotional resilience become more valuable, not less. For leaders carrying other people’s stress, the real question is not how much more they can absorb, but whether they have built the capacity to pause, recover, and keep showing up well. 🎓 In this episode, Mechelle discusses: How to challenge your internal story by naming emotions, asking yourself better questions, and looking for evidenceWhy emotional resilience matters alongside emotional intelligence when leaders are facing constant pressure and changeHow to stop carrying difficult conversations home by creating physical and mental transitions at the end of the working dayThe small warning sign that your emotional reserve is depleted, even before you realize how much pressure you are carryingWhat emotional maintenance looks like in practice, from protecting lunch and reflection time to consciously breathing and knowing when to say no 🙏 Thank you to our series partner, 365 Talents Download the free toolkit and get your 2026 skills strategy moving faster → https://365talents.com/en/lp/hr-skills-strategy-toolkit/?utm_source=hr_leaders&utm_medium=podcast&utm_campaign=july_2026 See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
