This issue of smartCHRO explores skills in the age of AI, featuring insights from customers, partners and external thought leaders. Discover how you can turn risk into opportunity and become the people leader your organisation needs.
Welcome to the latest edition of smartCHRO magazine, where we provide you with insights from people leaders across the EMEA region.
In this edition, through conversations with Workday customers, partners and external thought leaders, we’ll be exploring skills in the age of AI, and how capabilities such as data analytics, workforce risk management and coaching are becoming more important as CHROs and their teams look to add value to their organisations.
David Green, Director at Insight222, discusses how people data and improved data literacy can help CHROs and their teams to transform and grow their organisations.
We also speak to industry analysts, Workday partners and people leaders from Workday customers Mondelēz International and Sanofi about what the future holds for the HR function – and how CHROs can realise AI’s transformative potential.
Elsewhere, David Wilson, Founder and CEO of the Fosway Group, shares his thoughts on how the HR function can prove its strategic value by enabling the business to be more responsive.
Agnès Le Guern, HR Transformation Project Director at Air Liquide, Volker Schrank, Senior Director of HR Technology and Employee Experience at Mondelēz International, and Julie Muggli, Head of Talent (HR) Operations, Technology and Analytics at On, share how they’re using automation to make their organisations more efficient while also fostering a culture of learning.
We speak to Jean-Claude Loiseau, Process Engineer for Learning at Michelin, and Laura Naftan, Global Process Engineer for Training Administration at Michelin, to find out how the renowned multinational tyre manufacturing company is transforming its approach to learning and development.
Meanwhile, we’re delighted to feature insights and thought leadership from Workday partner PwC on why retaining and upskilling existing employees could be the key to overcoming the digital skills crisis.
And finally, footballer-turned-psychologist Paul McVeigh shares what CHROs can learn about workplace culture from the Premier League.
We hope this issue of smartCHRO gives you the confidence to turn risk into opportunity and that it inspires all of you to become the people leader your organisation needs.
