Tech founders, CEOs, and venture capitalists alike have cracked the code to eliminate HR departments in just three easy steps. Step One: replace recruiters with an AI that promises to "remove bias" but somehow keeps hiring people named Chad. Step Two: turn performance management into a gamified app where employees earn badges instead of raises. Step Three: declare that workplace culture will now be managed by a Slack emoji poll, because nothing says "values-driven organization" like reacting with a thumbs-up. There you have it! HR is officially "disrupted," and the humans in human resources are conveniently out of the way—just as the tech bros intended.Tech Bros Video: Get Rid of Your HR Department in 3 Easy StepsHRDLY Guest: A serial early HR leader at tech startups, Stacey Nordwall is currently the VP of People Strategy at Pyn.

"Technology is nothing. What's important is that you have faith in people, that they're basically good and smart, and if you give them tools, they'll do wonderful things with them." -Steve Jobs In today's dynamic business world, technology stands out as a transformative force, dramatically reshaping our workplaces. From AI-driven recruitment to remote work enablers, these innovations do more than change work methods—they fundamentally alter how companies view their most significant investment: their people. We've moved past the outdated notion of referring to employees as "assets." The Great Resignation and quiet quitting phenomena starkly remind us that people aren't possessions; they're individuals with agency who choose where to invest their talents. Instead, we recognize our workforce as our largest and most precious investment. To maximize the return on this people investment, companies must carefully align three critical elements: 1. Human-centered values and timeless principles (our true north) 2. Business strategy 3. People strategy This alignment not only enhances productivity, but also fosters a culture where employees feel valued, engaged, and committed—a win-win that benefits both the individual and the organization. In this enlightening podcast episode, our expert panel delves into the multifaceted impact of technology on people strategies, offering insights that are both profound and timely. In this era of rapid technological change, every organization must react. However, as leaders, we have a choice—to merely respond or to lead. We choose the latter. True leadership in this digital age means more than just adopting the latest tools; it requires us to harness these innovations thoughtfully, always ensuring that our highest, human-centric values remain our guiding light. As we navigate this tech-driven transformation, our panel explores how to strike the right balance. How can we leverage AI, automation, and digital platforms to enhance efficiency and productivity without losing sight of empathy, creativity, and personal growth? In this discussion, we'll uncover strategies for not just adapting to change, but spearheading it—all while keeping our people, their well-being, and their aspirations at the heart of every decision. Our panelists share real-world examples, best practices, and even cautionary tales. They discuss success stories where technology has enhanced employee satisfaction and productivity. But they also don't shy away from challenges, like the risk of over-relying on algorithms or the potential for technology to depersonalize human interactions. We thank our panel, Manal Keen, George Logothetis, and Jason Barth for THIS dynamic conversation sharing their passion, insight, and practical strategies. We are hopeful you will enjoy and benefit from this conversation as much as we have. Stay tuned for future conversations as we continue our exploration of topics essential to leadership excellence and organizational success.

“We'd love to hire someone and have them stay 6-8 years, but when it's not the reality anymore, then shifting that paradigm and mental model [is important.]-Jamie BrunoThe job market is constantly in flux. Sometimes it's an employer's market, sometimes a candidate's market, sometimes it's balanced. One trend that is here to stay is the overall decrease in employee tenure. The 25-year gold watch is no longer a norm, it is an exception. Today's guest shares his view that we need to work with the reality of shorter tenures, vs. be frustrated by them. My guest is Jamie Bruno. Jamie joined Ontario Tech University in 2017 and is currently Vice President, People and Transformation. Jamie is responsible for the full suite of labour relations and human resources functions, including transformative initiatives such as future-of-work modelling, improved digitization and access to information to enhance employee engagement, and optimizing features of the employee life cycle.Jamie has spent nearly 20 years in both human resources and labour relations across the broader public sector, serving as Chief Human Resources Officer at North York General Hospital, where he launched the hospital's first People Strategy, and leading strategic HR business operations at both Treasury Board Secretariat and the Ministry of Government Services in the Ontario Public Service.Jamie completed his undergraduate degree at the University of Toronto, and earned both his MBA and MIR (Master of Industrial Relations) degrees from Queen's University.In this episode of Talent Management Truths, you'll discover:A window into the management side of a large and growing university An example of a flexible work program that can help organizations go beyond existing geographic boundariesInsight into how to reframe the fact that employees don't necessarily stay in the same company for a long timeLinksJamie Bruno on LinkedinAre you a Talent leader who is longing for a safe place to bounce ideas off of?

Srikant Chellappa, cofounder and CEO of Engagedly, and host Vivian Blade share the latest trends and strategies for creating resilient workplaces.

Don't miss out on valuable takeaways such as these: 1. Today's talent game is changing faster than ever, and the old rulebook just won't cut it. If you want to thrive in the workforce of the future, you'd better start rethinking how you attract, retain, and support your people. 2. Talent management isn't just about managing talent anymore. It's about creating an environment where both the organization and its people can truly thrive. It's about fulfilling the promise of benefiting each other in meaningful ways. 3. Organizations need to prepare for honest conversations with their employees. People want to be recognized as individuals with their own work and life aspirations, not just another row in the spreadsheet. 4. The future of work is all about acknowledging people as, well, people. It's about treating them with respect, recognizing their goals, and keeping their aspirations in mind when setting organizational objectives. 5. If leaders aren't ready to have these candid chats with their teams, they're in for a bumpy ride. Employees want transparency, timely feedback, and a real sense of respect. Leaders need to be prepared for some straight talk.

Hello and welcome to Women Taking the Lead. I'm going to start us off by reading a quote I read not too long ago of my guest today. “As leaders in an increasingly polarized society, it's crucial that we recognize the talent within our organizations. Incredible talents are often overlooked, underutilized, or placed in situations that are bound to fail. The consequence of this is stagnant teams and underperforming businesses because our people feel disconnected. However, it's not the people who are broken; it's our organizational systems that require fixing.” That is a bold statement made by Dr. Mary-Clare Race, the President of Talking Talent. Meet Mary-Clare Race Dr. Mary-Clare Race is recognized for her remarkable career spanning four continents. She has played a pivotal role in facilitating business improvement for globally renowned organizations, including Barclays, Goldman Sachs, GSK, Unilever, Coca-Cola, and Estee Lauder Companies, as well as governmental organizations including the British Government, Cabinet Office, and the UK National Health Service. A prominent figure in her field, Dr. Race's research contributions have been published in reputable journals such as Frontiers in Psychology, Mental Illness at Work, and People & Strategy. While her expertise features in industry-leading publications including The Harvard Business Review, People Management and The Financial Times.

In this episode Mary-Clare and I discussed: The history DEI and the current state of DEI efforts around the globe. The importance of considering the ecosystem vs. the individual when looking to retain talent Where companies can make investments in the coming year to see meaningful progress. How the most effective programs will both customize to the organization and personalize to the individual. Why, when psychological safety is introduced to a team or organization, the issues can appear to get worse before they get better.

3 Reasons Why HR Needs Agile 1. Specialized Roles/Silos Resulting in Sequential Processes and Longer Decision-Making Cycles In most organizations that have adopted classical HR Service Delivery practices there often are distinct roles and silos for HR functions such as Business Partners focusing on strategic activities, Centers of Expertise handling specialized tasks, and Shared Services managing transactional activities. This separation does not foster the collaboration needed for agile responsiveness. 2. Focus on Specialization Over Cross-Functionality that hinders Team empowerment In a classical Ulrich Model-based HR Service Delivery organization, the focus is specializing in a specific HR domain. Although specialization is a considerable asset, it does not foster a holistic approach towards a comprehensive People Strategy. Team members are primarily focused on their specific roles and responsibilities instead of collaborating or taking over different/new tasks for holistic problem-solving. 3. Less Emphasis on Employee Experience Last but not least, traditional HR organizations are more inclined to miss the main persona in context, “the Employee”. There are of course several reasons for that. As discussed in the above 2 bullet points, in traditional HR Service Delivery organizations the focus is more on administrative tasks and different Centers of Expertise focus on their delivery roadmap, which makes it hard to establish a holistic strategic and employee-centric HR approach.
