Traditional e-learning isn't working. With only 5–15% completion rates industry-wide, most employees are stuck in “click & sleep” trainings that don't stick. That's why I was so keen to sit down with Matteo Penzo, Co-Founder & CEO of Zick Learn, to talk about how his company is flipping the script on corporate learning. Zick Learn's AI-powered platform transforms training into 2-minute micro lessons delivered right where people already work: Slack, WhatsApp, Teams. The results? On average, clients save 10 hours per employee every month - a massive boost in both productivity and engagement. Here are other topics from our conversation: ✅ How Zick Learn uses AI and UC Berkeley research to create effective microlearning. ✅ The challenges with traditional e-learning completion rates. ✅ How employers can convert existing training materials into micro-lessons. ✅ Zick Learn's ideal clients and its land-and-expand business model, including its main marketing method. ✅ How the team measures, tracks, and optimizes sales efforts using data. ✅ How Zick Learn tailors product demos to prospects' needs and closes deals without relying on discounts. ✅ Matteo's general growth advice for workplace/HR consulting and HR tech businesses. “Curiosity is the number one success in cold calling,” says Matteo. If your organisation is stuck in a training rut - or if you're building your own HR tech business - his insights, both technological and strategic, are well worth heeding. Full show notes here.

Managing the capabilities of an organization's workforce is challenging in the best of times, but the current upheaval created by AI technologies entering the workplace makes it all the more complex. The technologies that have put to work around this problem are many and varied and analyst Ethan Ray joins host Eric Hanselman to look at where we've come from and where we could be headed. There's a rush to determine if new technologies are making workers more productive and what skills are needed to leverage them. Both a recent S&P Global study and the HR Tech conference showed some trends that could be transforming working environments. Workforce intelligence approaches are looking to build a wholistic picture of knowledge, skills and ability of employees and then do skills matching and development planning.   As in other technology disciplines, a proliferation of tools has made many organizations' efforts at workforce management complicated. It's another place where many are considering integrated platforms that that can bring together HR, IT and financial teams to better understand the use of tools and resulting productivity. There are questions about what we can and what we should measure to truly understand efficiency and effectiveness. How can we understand what combination of skills and tools are generating the best financial outcomes? Better technology should hold the answer, but the path forward is not always clear.   More S&P Global Content: AI upskilling: Navigating the urgent need for workforce transformation   For S&P Global subscribers: Take 5: AI shakes up HR Workday strengthens standing in AI-driven frontline recruitment space with Paradox buy HR teams see AI as vital but face adoption barriers – Highlights from VotE: Workforce Pro… AI holds potential for workplace transformation, but employee concerns must be addressed – Highligh… MIT Manufacturing Day headlined by circular economy, workforce skills and modularity   Credits: Host/Author: Eric Hanselman  Guest: Ethan Ray Producer/Editor: Feranmi Adeoshun Published With Assistance From: Sophie Carr, Kyra Smith

I recently returned from my annual pilgrimage to the HR Technology Conference in Las Vegas. There are a ton of conferences in our industry, but HR Tech still remains the event to come to for the most comprehensive view of innovation in talent acquisition. It is clear that things are moving fast with technology; AI is already moving from narrow, single-use tools to orchestration layers and multiple agents that promise to revolutionise talent acquisition. Unfortunately, it is making the tech landscape very difficult to understand from a buyer's perspective, as traditional software categories are collapsing. At the same time, the legacy cornerstones of the recruiting process, resumes, interviews, and job descriptions, are looking increasingly inadequate, with candidates and employers caught in an AI arms race that is currently making the experience worse rather than better. So how can TA leaders cut through the noise, balance efficiency with fairness, and bring humanity back into recruiting while taking advantage of the enormous potential AI offers? What new skills will be needed to lead in this environment, and how do organisations avoid just using AI to do the wrong things faster? While I was at the show, I caught up with two of my regular podcast guests, Allyn Bailey, Senior Director of Brand and Communications at SmatRecruiters, and Daniel Chait, CEO of Greenhouse, both of whom offered some sensible guiding insights into what is becoming a very complex space. In the interviews, we discuss: Blurring categories of vendors is confusing for buyers. AI's next phase of orchestration layers and multiple agents The importance of open systems Will we finally see the end of resumes? The surge of AI interviewing Why the candidate experience keeps getting worse Balancing efficiency with fairness and keeping humans in the loop The new skills TA Leaders need Follow this podcast on Apple Podcasts.

Episode Notes In this episode of Talent Experience Live, we sit down with Alistair Neal of RedDot, recorded during last week's HR Tech conference, where he reflects on the big themes shaping the show floor and the reality behind the AI buzz. Neal discusses how to ask the right questions to separate genuine innovation from marketing hype, emphasizing that automation should eliminate tedious tasks like note-taking so recruiters can spend more time engaging with talent. The conversation explores the evolving candidate experience—while AI has made it easier to apply for jobs, Neal cautions that employers must focus on quality over volume, improve communication with job seekers, and remain vigilant against spam or fraudulent applications while ensuring a human remains in the loop at every step.

High-growth organizations succeed when their culture grows alongside their leaders. There's no universal playbook for scaling - what works is authentic, people-driven leadership that empowers others, strengthens relationships, and creates space for growth from the inside out. When companies plateau, it's often a signal to grow internally. Defining roles, streamlining communication, and empowering leaders are the keys to getting unstuck. The real turning point comes when organizations focus on building leaders, not just managing teams. For many founders, the hardest part is letting go - allowing others to step up, take ownership, and make decisions. That's exactly what my next guest on the A Better HR Business podcast helps organizations achieve. In the latest episode, I spoke with Ed Brzychcy, Founder and President of Lead from the Front, about the challenges organizations face as they scale and the transition leaders must make to guide their teams through change. Key topics from our conversation: ✅ Moving past growth plateaus by redefining internal structures. ✅ How Ed blends coaching and consulting with executive teams. ✅ Lessons from military leadership that translate to business. ✅ Insights from Ed's HR “roadshow” and leadership interviews. ✅ Building and sustaining referral-based business growth. ✅ Why consistent networking fuels long-term opportunities. ✅ And much more! Listen in for a grounded conversation on leadership, organizational transformation, and how persistence and people skills form the backbone of a successful HR business.

Føler du at arbeidsdagen din i stor grad går med til «arbeid om arbeidet»? Uendelige møter, konstante e-poster og multitasking som tapper mer energi enn den gir resultater? Ifølge Deloitte's 2025 Global Human Capital Trends er det en økende erkjennelse av at tradisjonelle arbeidsmåter ikke lenger fungerer. Fremtidens arbeidsliv krever mer fleksibilitet, smartere bruk av teknologi og en kultur som fremmer psykologisk trygghet og ekte fokus. I vår nyeste episode av i loopen tar vi et grundig dypdykk i dette moderne paradokset. Vi får innsikt fra tre spennende gjester: Karin Knardahl Frost, SVP People & Organizational Development i Wallenius Wilhelmsen, et globalt shipping- og logistikkfirma med 9 000 ansatte i 27 land. Hun deler hvordan de leverer mer med mindre, samtidig som de balanserer globale prioriteringer og kulturelle forskjeller. Helene A. Wergeland, senior Organizational Development Specialist i reMarkable, forteller hvordan teknologi både kan hjelpe og overvelde oss, og hvordan de frigjør menneskelig potensial gjennom smartere organisasjons- og lederutvikling. John Erik Eikland, Director i Human Capital i Deloitte Norge, gir et unikt internasjonalt perspektiv fra Danmark, Japan og Norge, og belyser hvordan kultur påvirker arbeidsrytmer – og hvorfor psykologisk trygghet er nøkkelen til å kunne si «nei» til unødvendige møter. Episoden ledes av Julie McCarthy, og du kan lytte til den på Spotify, Apple Podcasts eller din foretrukne podkastplattform.

Marriott's Tyler Weeks joins Chad & Cheese to unpack what it's like running HR for a million humans (and possibly a few Roombas). Expect: Ritz-Carlton ghosting Joel harder than his prom date. Why Marriott's HR is basically 9,000 mom-and-pop shops in a trench coat. The shocking discovery that AI doesn't make great recruiters greater—it just stops the bad ones from lighting themselves on fire. CFO ROI math so sketchy it belongs in a late-night infomercial. And the big AI fix for fake résumés and deepfakes? Drag ‘em into the lobby for an old-fashioned, in-person interview. This is hospitality meets HR Tech chaos—and Tyler's got the room service order.

This week on Tapod we sit down with Steve Ward – Global Employer Brand and Recruitment Marketing Expert and Head of Strategic Insights at Blackbridge Communications. Steve and Lauren had a conversation at Recfest UK about the future of AI in Recruitment and right here is where we pick it up. At times the conversation gets a little heated—well, maybe not heated, but let's just say that the three of us aren't completely aligned on thinking. We cover usage, development, ethics, and government regulation—hell, we cover everything. AI is here to stay, and it will make our lives very different; just how different is the question we all want answered. Thanks to Paradox for your support this month. 

Domino's isn't just delivering pizza in 30 minutes or less anymore—they're trying to deliver candidates, too. In this episode, we sit down with Matt King, Director of HR Tech at Domino's, to talk AI, ATS drama, and why franchisees always have “better ideas” than corporate. From killing off Kenexa (RIP, nobody misses you) to jumping into bed with SmartRecruiters, Domino's is betting big on speed, automation, and a sprinkle of chatbot charm. Matt spills on: Why hiring at Domino's must be as fast as ordering a pepperoni with extra cheese. How chatbots went from clunky decision trees to almost-human assistants (minus the dad jokes). What happens when franchisees get in a room with vendors. The eternal struggle between human touch and “just let the damn bot send the background check reminder.” And yes—we even asked about the Noid. Because if Domino's doesn't bring him back as a recruiting chatbot, what are we even doing here? It's tech, pizza, and questionable morals—just another day on The Chad & Cheese Podcast: AI Sessions.
