AI is transforming how we hire, promote, and manage talent—but when we hand over decisions to algorithms, we risk losing the very thing that makes HR human: critical thinking. As legislation tightens and scrutiny grows, HR leaders are expected to understand not just how AI works, but how to use it responsibly.

Join us for a high-impact panel discussion where top experts in AI, Data Analytics, and Learning & Development will pull back the curtain on how AI is really being used in employment decisions—and what that means for HR.

You’ll walk away with:

Clear strategies for balancing automation with human judgment
Insight into where AI can go wrong—and how to spot the red flags
Tools to strengthen your team’s critical thinking in an AI-powered workplace
Practical guidance for compliance and ethical use under emerging regulations

Don’t just keep up with AI—lead the conversation. This session is a must for anyone who wants to future-proof their HR strategy and stay ahead of the curve.
