“Generative AI, it's going to change the world in an incredibly positive way”, says Alex.“In the long term, I truly believe that we will elevate the role of HR because we'll be able to not only remove a lot of the friction from finding complex answers around HR policies and programs, but we'll also be able to augment our services to be able to do more.”Alex charts her career journey to falling in to consulting. “15 years ago, I'm not even sure I really understood what human resources was. How I ended up in this was focussing on how organizations manage their people and how they build relationships with their workforce. I constantly asked myself, could we make work better?”“I understood that technology and data were huge drivers in how organizations think about their people, how they make decisions about their people.”Alex gives insight in to how technology and humans can combine to make HR better. How we can use technology to deliver a more personalized experience as employee expectations continue to shift. “It's incredibly difficult to make the argument for more human resources in human resources.There are times where humans should be the main point of contact, but we should be digital first where we can so that the limited human resources we have access to can be there for those human moments like a promotion or something unfortunate, like a death in the family or even just a difficult coaching conversation.”Alex emphasizes the biggest impact embedding AI will have on business functions and the steps we can take to deploy AI effectively into our organizations. “Build off the things we're used to, things we're comfortable with things that we have already built into our spaces.My number one piece of advice would be to embrace it as an individual because it will make you feel more comfortable in the workplace setting. Use it in your personal life so that you can then better understand the applications at work and be open-minded.”Alex highlights simple AI use cases that can lead to wider organizational buy-in. "There are a number of smaller use cases that organizations can begin to embrace today. Job descriptions are a great example. Ask ChatGPT to write a job description for you, then ask it to rewrite that job description from the perspective of a cool or edgy company.”“I would never suggest that you put your internal data in any sort of open environment, but asking to write a job description for an HR Business Partner is absolutely something that you can use.”Alex discusses challenges around AI, biases and DEI. “We hear things like we've removed anything that could create any sort of bias towards one particular group or another. We know however, that, that is just beginning to scratch the surface. The real trick here is something called humans in the loop. There's no world where I would recommend using artificial intelligence that doesn't include humans in the loop.”In conclusion, Alex advises HR professionals and talent acquisition professionals to use AI to enhance our skills. “The best advice I can give is to only use generative AI to augment your area of expertise.”“We should be using the years of expertise that put us in our jobs to analyze the output from generative AI. It should never replace the areas of expertise we already have.”Connect with Alex Zea on LinkedIn or find out more about Mercer Leapgen The Insurance Coffee House Podcast is hosted by Nick Hoadley, CEO of

Welcome to Humans of HR.  We're a podcast and a social movement focused on the everyday challenges people experience at work. Powered by the team at Leapgen. In this episode we talk with Nick Freedman, an accomplished leadership coach who is now focused on teaching people how to successfully transition from the end of their career into a great retirement, with renewed purpose, as well as finding and recruiting a successor before departing.  Nick and i had a fascinating and salient conversation about what he calls Retirement 2.0 and how individuals should take a proactive approach to managing their own game plan for retirement that isn't just focused on their finances, and how organisations can elevate their EVP and manage succession risk by focusing on the important cohort who are transitioning to retirement. Here's the link for the Spiral Dynamics book that Nick mentions in the episode. https://www.booktopia.com.au/spiral-dynamics-prof-don-edward-beck/book/9781405133562.html?And if you want to learn more about Nick's work and how to access his programs, here's how to find him.https://www.retireonpurpose.co/hr-partner Email - connect@nickfreedman.com.au We'd love to get your feedback, topic suggestions and please refer us to other awesome humans that you know who would love to listen.

There's been much talk lately about the gender wage gap, and rightly so. However, another issue that deserves more attention is the retention of women in the workplace. Too often, women leave their jobs or switch careers because they feel stalled or unsupported. Listen in as Jess Von Bank and host Shari Simpson talk about supporting and retaining women in the workplace. Guest: Jess Von Bank, Head of Brand Strategy, Leapgen Jess Von Bank is an 18-year industry veteran and impassioned evangelist of the modern candidate and employee experience. As both a former recruiting practitioner and an expert in bringing TA Tech and HCM vendor solutions to market, Jess looks to broaden their executive mindset to better design and deliver a workforce experience that exceeds the expectations of talent and the needs of the business. Jess offers specialized expertise in talent acquisition, recruitment marketing, employer branding, DEI&B, brand-building, and storytelling.

We don't have to go alone. When we think of change at work, Dan Riley encourages us to think of change as a team sport. "It's a long-game mindset. It takes all of us. TOGETHER." RADICL is all about inspired change. They provide employee experience advisory solutions to organizations that go beyond traditional engagement, performance management, and leadership development. Essentially, they unlock what people are thinking, feeling, and how they are connecting with an organization's purpose. Jess Von Bank and I were excited to chat with Dan because here at Leapgen, we share a similar mission to motivate teams, to humanize work, and to make work better. I talked about this recently in BusinessMatters Magazine sharing that "Work has changed forever, meaning companies must adapt...The right approach is putting people first, valuing who they are, and empowering deep connections." Dan echoes this statement, saying "We know change doesn't stop. We never arrive. Work keeps changing. We keep changing. This is work. This is life. But most importantly, a shared optimism that we CAN and WILL achieve ALL of the above - if we do it together." Take a Listen!

The business world moves fast. The only way to stay ahead of the competition is to constantly think about new ways to disrupt your industry. But even if you're always coming up with new ideas, there's a good chance you'll eventually hit a wall. That's because your competitors are probably doing the same thing. How can you keep breaking through and staying ahead? Listen in as Jason Averbook and host Shari Simpson talk about disrupting your thinking as an HR leader and why it's crucial to stay ahead of the competition. Guest: Jason Averbook, Co-founder and CEO, Leapgen Jason Averbook is a leading analyst, thought leader and consultant in the area of human resources, the future of work and the impact technology have on that future.

There's quite a prolific conversation to unpack in today's episode of PEOPLETECH. Live at the HR tech 2022 conference, our two guest Jason Averbook (CEO of Leapgen) and Jess Von Bank (Head of Brand Strategy at Leapgen) speak with Mark Feffer about acquired and desired skills, the ebb and flow of this fluctuating industry, and the shift in employee power. There's been massive shifts of trust, work types, empathy and humanity over the past few years. This industry has been flipped on its head and we need to rethink almost every single aspect of HR. We're in the middle of the biggest work experience shifts in human history. Employee power has also shifted as well. The individual is finally given the opportunity to work on their own terms, in their own homes, and with little supervision. This isn't a loss for employers, they just need to figure out how to play the game differently. But these changes are not a moment in time, or based on the current economic climate, it's an evolution that's here to stay. Every day 4 people retire and 1 person enters the workforce. Talent scarcity is only getting worse, so organizations have to cater to these new youthful archetypes that are breaching into the labor market or else they won't ever be able to keep moving forward. But do we actually have a labor shortage, or do we have a skills shortage? Skills have seemed to transition from "what you know" to "who you are" which is an even harder, more abstract concept to wrap our heads around. We would like to extend a warm thank you to our friends at Fuel50 for sponsoring this podcast!

The job market is undoubtedly different today than it was two years ago. But what exactly has changed? How do these vast transformations impact hiring and job trends, talent availability, matching or mismatching talent? ...And what about the elephant in the room? There's several actually. During this Meetup, Alex Zea & Ryan Malkes have an honest chat about the recession, quiet-quitting, and the power of AI to bring about sweeping change. As our hosts, Jason Averbook and Jess Von Bank wrap up UNLEASH in Paris, we're excited to feature Special Guest Hosts: Alexandra Zea, and Ryan Malkes. Alex is Leapgen's Client Partner & Team Lead and Ryan is our Workforce Experience Director - HR Advisory. And stay tuned for special guests Steve Jewel and Mandy Whiting! Take a Listen!

Jess believes we currently have an opportunity to remake work on more equitable terms. Employers need to remove barriers for people – working moms being a prime example – instead of always demanding that people overcome those barriers. She believes gender and race pay gaps should be considered corporate criminal behavior. And why does she says technology by itself is not the solution? Listen to find out. 

Welcome to another episode of The Action and Ambition Podcast! Joining us today is Jason Averbook, Founder and CEO of Leapgen, a digital transformation company shaping the NOW of Work. They are a highly respected and visionary partner to organizations looking to design and deliver a digital workforce experience that will produce valued outcomes for the business. They do this by helping solution providers rethink how to design better and deliver workforce services and architect HR technology solutions that meet the expectations of workers and the needs of the business.

In the new world of work, “being human” has never been more important. Employers sit at the center of the families and communities they serve, and it's an exciting time to see how the prioritization of workers can help fuel humanity at scale. Listen as Jason and Polly discuss the importance of infusing humanity into the digital world of work, while proving that HR programs do what they set out to do. 

We can't believe that HR Tech Conference was just last week! Our team is still riding high after the amazing energy at the conference and all of the great insights shared. We were excited to share a full HR Tech Conference Recap on today's Digital Meetup! Joined by Harry West, Leapgen's VP Team Leader & Customer Partner, we shared the biggest highlights, takeaways, and insights from the largest HR Tech event globally.

Take a listen to a lively community conversation about TECH! We've never had better technology at our fingertips, and that includes solutions for the workforce. We're a bunch of bright, smart, innovative people with an appetite for tech - we've shown that in our consumer and personal lives. So why can't we get tech to do all it's capable of when it comes to the workplace? Why does work still feel so.....clunky? 1993? Mainframe? Maybe we've made it too complicated. More likely, we're not taking the right approach. Does HR need to be a technologist to shape and support the digital workplace, or do they just need to be technology-aware problem solvers? Jess and Leapgen's President and Chief Service Officer, Mike Brennan, welcomed Ray Nunn and Reid McLaughlin of Covalence Consulting to our Now of Work Community. They unpacked the differences between deployment and implementation, talked about how to get tech to produce the right outcomes and the mindset required for true transformation.

Automate to humanate! We say this often at Leapgen. When we talk about automate to humanate, we're talking about giving everyone the experience they deserve. Automate what begs to be automated so humans can do what they're especially equipped to do: BE HUMAN! Why don't we provide more tools, more virtual assistants, more robotic process automation (RPA), more conversational AI? Forget what it's called: It's called HELP. Humans are begging to be upskilled, supported, developed and career pathed. Technology is begging to improve experience for everyone: job seekers who need transparency and help navigating a clunky process, recruiters with overbearing req loads, hiring managers trying their best to onboard and unleash. Turn HELP WANTED into HELP IS HERE. We talked AI with Josh Zywien, Chief Marketing Officer at Paradox, a software company fueled by the concept that AI can make recruiting more human. TAKE A LISTEN!

Energy and innovation have been bubbling in the HR Tech space for the past few years. What's next? We were thrilled to be joined by one of the most brilliant researchers in the industry to give us the inside scoop. Stacey Harris and Sapient Insights are currently fielding their 25th Annual HR Systems Survey. That's right, 25 YEARS tracking the evolution of HR systems. You remember what we were using 25 years ago, right? We've gone from pushing paper to publishing APIs, graduated from mainframes to the cloud. Innovation is catapulting. But it hits different if you're SMB vs. enterprise…or does it? What applications and vendors are seeing the most adoption and satisfaction, and why? What are the big spending plans? What's the future of HRIS and Shared Services, and how in the world is HR resourcing everything? In this episode, Jim Holincheck, Leapgen's VP of Advisory Services, and Jason Averbook welcomed Stacey Harris to the conversation to discuss insights and trends from this year's HR Systems Survey. How can we hone the right use cases to better optimize our workforces in uncertain times? Take a listen to learn more about this year's HR Systems Survey!

On the show this week, I am talking to Jason Averbook, CEO and Co-Founder at Leapgen, one of the leading global authorities on HR technology and employee experience.Throughout this episode, Jason and I discuss:His thoughts on how companies should approach employee experience and why that involves a whole person approach with human experience as the focus.Why it is so important to understand an individual's purpose and how they want to work, so you can design solutions that meet them where they are and where they are goingThe role of data and technology in helping organisations to understand and measure employee experienceWhy building trust and understanding how people feel, is so important when designing employee experience. And finally, Jason walks through some examples of how some of the best companies are building great employee experience.Support for this podcast comes from 365Talents.

Women want a 'no-a$$holes' rule when it comes to work. Does that surprise you? Just one finding in a massive Leapgen study of nearly 3,000 working adults in the U.S. This timely research data is RICH because we were bold enough to EXPLORE: race, gender, income level, job function, employment status, age, and the usual, of course. But also whether you manage others, how long you've been in your job, how big your company is, and whether your household has multiple streams of income. The workforce is complex; people are complex; organizations need to be willing to explore those complexities if they are to deliver a meaningful, personalized, relevant and truly people-first culture. One that will keep people. Jess Von Bank, Head of Marketing and Brand Strategy for Leapgen, and Kristin Penney, General Manager of Leapgen's Luminate practice and Research Director for this study, break it down and issue BIG CHALLENGES to address the BIG QUIT. Know your people just like this, be prepared to act, and equip managers to better support people. TAKE A LISTEN

Last week we talked about signals in the Now of Work. How we receive them, what they mean, how to take action. The signals keep coming FAST & FURIOUS; every organization who was squarely focused on proactively and thoughtfully improving employee experience is suddenly focused on REACTION & RESPONSE again. This time to sweeping vaccine mandates in the U.S., what it means for labor supply, and the impact on….you guessed it, EXPERIENCE. How is HR to operate in this ongoing Experience v. Compliance tug of war? How can HR operations and service delivery support these efforts? Leapgen's own Jim Scully joins today's Digital Meetup, who is not only our Service Delivery Practice Lead, he is known as the world's preeminent expert on service delivery models for digital experience.

We're excited to share more details about this team effort designed to support the transformation of the digital HR tech community on today's Digital Meetup. Leapgen has provided marketing strategy, thought leadership and advisory services to #HRTech vendors for years, but they need MORE. Digital HR technology solutions continue to flood the market to meet the demands of the Now of Work, but they're also challenged to reimagine their solutions for the most historic labor market, HR Transformation, and business cycles we've seen in modern times. We are doubling down on vendor services to meet demand through Luminate, leveraging our deep bench of marketing and brand strategists, industry analysts, and domain experts to focus on thought leadership, workforce research, and content strategy.

Imagine if our obsession with happy customers started with an obsession for workforce experience? When you get employee experience right it has a ripple effect that washes over your customers. What does it take? DESIGN, DESIGN, DESIGN! It's the key component—the backbone. Then comes data and a deployment mindset; not a bunch of #HRtech implementations. This is why Jess Von Bank and I are excited to welcome two of our most brilliant minds to today's Digital Meetup. Leapgen designers, Emily Dahl and Ryan Malkes, will join us at 1PM ET for some straight talk. You ARE redesigning WORK, aren't you? You should be.

Join Steve Boese, HR Technology Conference Chair, and Jason Averbook, CEO & Founder of Leapgen, as they discuss ways HR can utilize technology to help employees achieve their goals, improve their skills, and enhance their career development. Thanks for joining the conversation!

Jennings Wynn is a CUSTOMER champion for recruiting solutions that deliver results, but he's also a PEOPLE champion for equity, diversity, creating spaces for belonging, and inclusive workplaces. He has deep expertise in Employee Resource Groups and the real value they can bring the business, he talks about the use of pronouns and inclusive language and workplace practices, and he tells a rich story around the real history and significance of #Pridemonth. So before the final weekend of Pride celebrations commence, Jennings joins our Digital Meetup to tell us WHY THIS MATTERS in our efforts to humanize work. When it comes to #DEI and corporate values, what does a brand look like when it's not just talking the talk? We love our Fridays together! Join the team at Leapgen for this important conversation. Connect with Jennings: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennings-wynn-6908409a/

Happy Friday. It's always great to reconnect with a Leapgen friend, who is a big supporter of the #NowofWork community, and making waves in it! Jess and I are excited to welcome Lisa Sterling to today's Digital Meetup! Lisa is a people crusader, talent and culture advocate, angel investor, and digital CHRO, who is a mastermind at activating the most important asset in business: PEOPLE. Enjoy this episode as we talk: PEOPLE TRENDS FROM A CHRO PERSPECTIVE. We will dig into: Moving to true global talent pools: Work is what you do, not where you go. The People function finally transitioning from efficiency metrics to value creation. Are we checking the DEI&B box or actually changing the game? The Pink Collar Recession: The exodus of women moving out of the workforce. Lisa is a fireball of energy who doesn't hold back from speaking her truth. We know you'll enjoy this exciting and laid back conversation. Connect with Lisa: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lisamsterling/

Thomas Otter joined Leapgen's Digital Meetup last week, and an hour just wasn't enough. Thomas uses a brilliant analogy for the IT strategy of any organization (are you a sunflower, daisy, cactus, or dandelion?) and explains who the power couples should be when C-level executives collaborate to modernize their function and the business overall. Sure, we'd love see to see HR and IT partner more often and more successfully, but Thomas thinks you should probably check in with Marketing if you want to take notes from a function who has successfully aligned delivery and technology to innovate the way they deliver value to the business. He canceled 14 dates to spend his Friday night with us, and we guarantee this conversation was worth every minute of the time. Learn about the future of work tech directly from The Very Guy who helped scale SAP SuccessFactors to more than 50 million users and drove an HR Tech research agenda for Gartner that helped shape an industry. Enjoy! Connect with Thomas: https://www.linkedin.com/in/thomasotter/

How do you define self-care? More importantly, how do you approach and prioritize self-care alongside demands on time, physical space, schedule, health, and work? Covid-19 has been especially harmful for working mothers, who were already carrying a disproportionate burden of teacher, housekeeper, babysitter, therapist, and all kinds of second shift duties. Working moms are dropping out of the workforce at an alarming rate because THIS. JUST. ISN'T. WORKING. So how can we find balance? If working moms don't save themselves, it's unlikely anyone else will. Jess Von Bank was proud to host Leapgen's own social media content producer, Chie Davis, to learn about Mommafied. When Chie isn't storytelling Leapgen's brand and services across social media, she's providing health, wellness and self-care tips for busy moms who want to lead more whole lives. Take a listen to their conversation, including what it's like to match personal brand and values to corporate brand and values. Great conversation, Jess and Chie!

Jerome Ternynck is the CEO and Founder of SmartRecruiters, and he's actively changing the face of hiring forever. Like Jess, Jerome introduces himself as “born and raised in recruiting." With his heart in recruiting, his soul in technology, we see the perfect recipe for innovation. From his recruiting roots and founding one of the first Applicant Tracking Systems more than 20 years ago, Jerome now leads the smartest Talent Acquisition Suite for the modern workforce, actively changing the way global enterprises achieve hiring success while embracing diversity and inclusion in their process and technology approach (to go minute 10:20 for that conversation). SmartRecruiters was one of the first companies to boldly proclaim they would go ‘Remote First Forever.” What have they learned from that business decision, and how is it helping them shape remote hiring best practices inside the world's largest enterprises? Plus, one of our favorite questions to ask a podcast guest, and one of the best answers we've ever heard...be sure to listen to the end.

We've got an all-star cast joining us on the show today, Ryan Malkes, Emily Dahl, and Mackenzie Rohn are here in the virtual studio to discuss their upcoming presentation “Design Thinking for Digital Workforce Experience” at the Fuel 2021 kickoff event produced by Leapgen. I was amazed at the energy and passion that they brought to our listeners, and at 8:30am in the morning. They shared a powerful message about driving empathetic action in the workplace. Not everyone has adapted to change in the same way and organizations need to implement a continuous listening strategy to best gauge how to help their employees. Empathy is a foundational element in Leapgen's work to design a human-centric experience through design thinking. They reminded us that it is not about thinking so much as it is about design doing. While “planes are grounded” right now, we can take this opportunity to act and change. Join their session this Wednesday, January 13th, to gain actionable insights and practical next steps to design a better digital workforce experience.

Listen in on a special episode featuring Jason Averbook (CEO at Leapgen) and Thomas Otter (Founder, Otter Advisory), two of the biggest thought leaders in HR technology. They'll challenge HR buzzwords and get into the meat of how HR can't ignore almost half the workforce anymore. This is especially true now that Gartner identified the growth of the contingent workforce as one of the nine trends facing HR leaders post-pandemic. Whether its the hiring manager experience or the archaic technologies used to manage contingent workers, Jason and Thomas will pinpoint what's broken and share potential strategies for HR leaders to adopt. What you'll learn: -What's wrong with current HR processes for the extended workforce -Why ‘employee experience' needs to become ‘people experience' -How HR can better support managers' relationship with external workers -Why talent management leaders need new success metrics for the total workforce ----- View blogs and upcoming webinars

In business, one of the most common advice that people tend to give is to create raving fans out of your clients and customers. But what if you flip that and become raving fans of your clients instead?
