Is your HR tech stack fixing real business problems, or just fuelling the shiny object hype? With new HR technologies arriving faster than ever, many organisations are quick to jump on the next big thing. But in the rush to modernise, are we losing sight of the real business problems we're meant to be solving? In this episode of the Digital HR Leaders podcast, host David Green is joined by Matthew Brown, Director of Research, HCM at ISG, whose diverse career spans practitioner, former Chief People Officer, and now respected industry analyst. And together they tackle a fundamental question: Are we truly leveraging HR technology to create business value, or are we just keeping up with trends? Tune in and join them as they explore: Why the disconnect between HR and tech adoption persists, and how to bridge it The risks of adopting AI without clear business purpose Why data quality remains an overlooked but critical obstacle What HR tech vendors should be doing to ethically upskill their customers When reimplementation of existing systems may be a smarter choice than replacement How to distinguish genuine tech partners from transactional vendors If you're questioning whether your HR tech strategy is driving real results or just driving activity, this conversation, sponsored by HiBob, offers timely insight, practical guidance, and fresh perspective from both sides of the industry. HiBob is a fast-growing new leader in the HCM market. In fact, according to HR tech guru Josh Bersin, HiBob is one of the few SaaS companies that have successfully cracked the code on user experience.

In this unscripted firestorm of a rant, AJ Vaughan channels the spirit of Gary Vee to challenge the fractured foundation of HR Tech sales. Inspired by Gary's unapologetic views on undervalued channels and outdated structures, AJ draws a bold parallel to the misalignment running rampant between sales, marketing, finance, product, and leadership teams in the HR tech world.He unpacks the disconnect between headcount and revenue goals, comp plans and psychological safety, expectations and enablement. It's not about tearing down the system—it's about rebuilding it with alignment, data, empathy, and a little bit of common sense.This is for the CRO who's tired of spinning wheels. For the CEO who keeps hiring and firing AEs like chess pieces. For the HR Tech vendor who wants to win without selling their soul. It's Culture Over Quota, every damn time.Key themes:Sales compensation vs. human psychologyThe hidden costs of misalignmentWhat leadership actually owes AEsHumanizing the vendor-HR relationshipReimagining GTM through the lens of empathy and data

It's been estimated that up to 30% of the UK workforce currently lacks the skills needed to do their jobs effectively. The founder and CEO of SkillsAssess, Robin Adda, joined me on the podcast to talk about his bold new mission: to fix the broken skills training ecosystem. (NOTE: Register for Robin's upcoming panel discussion on AI for HR & L&D.) A highly successful serial entrepreneur, Robin's latest venture, SkillsAssess, uses AI-powered assessments to help businesses and training providers truly understand what skills people have, and what training they actually need. It's smarter, faster, and more targeted, and could just be the missing link in workforce development. By using AI-powered assessments, SkillsAssess helps identify individual skills gaps and creates personalized learning pathways to close them. Robin is a true veteran in EdTech and IT Training. He's founded and scaled successful companies (including GTS Learning, later acquired by CompTIA), and his entrepreneurial journey includes a legal win against Apple back in the '80s. From running a word processing bureau in the pre-internet days to selling his company to one of the biggest names in tech, Robin's story offers valuable lessons and inspiration for anyone in business, HR, or tech. In a wide-ranging discussion, Robin and I talked about: ✅ Building and sustaining resilience in leadership. ✅ The risks of generic, one-size-fits-all training. ✅ How AI is transforming HR and learning. ✅ What makes SkillsAssess stand out in the skills/L&D space. ✅ The value of a flexible, content-agnostic platform. ✅ Aligning training with organizational goals and values. ✅ The future of effective workforce development. ✅ And much more.

In a world spinning faster than ever—burnout rising, trust fraying, attention splintered—the way humans behave at work is shifting... and HR leaders are feeling it in their budgets, buying cycles, and belief systems. This episode dives into the critical need for a reset: not just in tools or tech stacks, but in how we think about value, urgency, and what people actually need. From vendor fatigue to decision paralysis, we explore how emotional turbulence and behavioral chaos are quietly rewriting the rules of HR tech sales—and what both buyers and sellers must do to adapt. If you're in the business of building, selling, or buying HR tech, this one's your compass in the storm.

Workplace culture isn't an HR project, it's a leadership priority. One of the biggest challenges companies face is when CEOs don't see culture as their responsibility. But without top-down commitment, even the best HR efforts fall flat. Real change starts at the top. What doesn't work? Band-aid perks like free lunches or ping-pong tables. As Nia Pommerenke, my guest from “ Better HR Business Podcast puts it: “No one will stick around for the coffee if the culture is bad.” What does work? Clarity, consistent action, and embedding culture into every part of the organization, from hiring to performance reviews to how managers lead every day. I recently spoke with Nia Pommerenke, Founder and Culture Transformation Consultant from of SeaBright Culture Solutions, about the real challenges organizations face when trying to build strong, engaging cultures, and why leadership commitment is key to meaningful change. Nia has dedicated over twenty-five years to the human resources field, with a particular passion for shaping how people experience work through culture, engagement, and leadership. In a wide-ranging discussion, Nia and I talked about: ✅ Why CEO leadership is essential for setting culture and leading by example. ✅ How quick fixes often fail to address deeper cultural issues. ✅ What truly drives engagement—purpose, psychological safety, growth, and trust. ✅ Why HR can't do it alone—culture change requires shared ownership. ✅ How adaptability demands investment in upskilling, clarity, and resilience. ✅ Tips for starting smart in HR consulting: focus on visibility, marketing, and clear value ✅ And much more.

It's one thing for employers to say that they want to help improve employee mental health, but another thing entirely to actually make it happen. Today, I am joined by Tobba Vigfusdottir, CEO and Founder of Kara Connect, a customised mental health and wellbeing platform for employees.  Tobba has an M.Ed. in Educational Psychology from the University of Washington in Seattle and a B.Ed. from the University of Iceland; both focused on cognitive psychology.

This week on Tapod we catch up with Adam Buxton - GM Talent Acquisition Transformation at Ventia. With internet issues at Lauren's parent's house in the country to Adam in the middle of moving house it makes for a challenging episode, but a perfect environment to explore working from home.

In this episode, the boys dive into the great European vacation boycott of the U.S.—turns out, Trump's tariff tantrums and border shenanigans have Europeans swapping the Grand Canyon for grandma's couch in Lisbon. They cackle over the diplomatic dumpster fire sparked by recent political stunts, then pivot to Spain's Job&Talent, the staffing hotshot that's raking in cash like it's a piñata party. The platform's plotting a global takeover with AI so smart it could probably match you with your dream job and your soulmate. The crew geeks out over how Job&Talent's pampering workers with benefits while turbocharging operations with tech wizardry, making old-school staffing agencies look like they're using carrier pigeons. They riff on the recruitment tech revolution, where AI's turning job boards into something out of a sci-fi flick, and toss around hot takes on HR tech startups—some are destined for glory, others for the startup graveyard. It's a game of Buy or Sell, featuring Vizzy, PeopleForce and Klara. Oh, and Spain's immigration policies? They're basically rolling out the red carpet for immigrants, fueling the economy like a sangria-soaked rocket. Will the rest of Europe follow their lead? Gotta listen to find out.

Employment lawsuits in the U.S. remain a problem. A recent survey found that 37% of small and medium-sized businesses (SMBs) had faced an employee lawsuit in the past year. While large corporations have legal teams at the ready, small businesses often depend on a single, dedicated HR professional juggling everything. That's why Adam Daines, Founder and CEO of ADDA, didn't just observe the AI revolution in HR - he and his team created MyHRAlly: a secure, closed AI platform built specifically to empower HR teams in small and mid-sized businesses.

Today's workforce has grown up with digital education - they expect modern, relevant training to help them succeed, not as a perk, but as a given. Data shows that companies with strong learning programs see higher employee satisfaction, better retention, and improved customer outcomes. However, for companies with 50 to 500 employees, especially those growing fast or expanding product lines, building a full-scale L&D department isn't always feasible. The challenge of providing effective training is real - and ignoring it is no longer an option. I talked with Luis Garcia, President and Co-Founder of PETE, about how personalized, scalable training solutions - covering everything from onboarding to compliance and technical upskilling - are not just helpful, but essential for long-term success. PETE Learning is an Orlando-based HR tech startup helping businesses streamline and optimize their learning initiatives, through its AI-led training platform. In a wide-ranging discussion, Luis and I talked about: ✅ The limitations of traditional training methods — and how AI is changing the game. ✅ How PETE's AI algorithms deliver dynamic, scalable learning experiences. ✅ Why effective onboarding and continuous development are key to employee retention. ✅ Growth strategies through digital marketing and sales. ✅ The role of strategic acquisitions in expanding PETE's offerings and strengthening its platform. ✅ How PETE leverages local networks and digital channels to scale its reach. ✅ And much more!

Rippling's latest lawsuit reads less like a legal filing and more like the plot of a corporate espionage thriller, complete with secret crypto payments, an alleged mole, and a fake Slack channel trap. This week, the HR tech startup publicly named the employee at the center of its case against its rival Deel, claiming the company paid him thousands to spy from the inside. Deel, however, is not staying quiet. The company is denying the claims, calling it a dramatic distraction from Rippling's own legal troubles. Today, on TechCrunch's Equity podcast, hosts Max Zeff and Anthony Ha are catching us up on the week's headlines, including a breakdown of how this saga between two HR tech giants escalated from business rivalry to accusations of racketeering, and why, according to Max, smashing the phone you use for corporate espionage with an ax at your mother-in-law's house is “the oldest trick in the book.” Listen to the full episode to hear about: The startup that's gamifying the tax filing process, and the copyright questions that continue to rise Circle's IPO and what the move could signal for others in the crypto space. The latest in the AI race — from OpenAI's record-breaking raise and GPU meltdowns to Anthropic's  AI chatbot plan for colleges and Google's Gemini leadership shakeup.
