Harvard Business School professor Raffaella Sadun's research has historically focused on digital reskilling. Now, rapid technological changes — like AI — are reshaping the nature of work. Raffaella's research has explored how AI might empower those with intermediate expertise, such as store managers and blue-collar workers, to become more efficient and satisfied in their roles. She shares a bit about her research on today's episode of Me, Myself, and AI and highlights the potential for AI to improve teamwork and innovation by bridging the gaps between different functional teams. Her experiments show that AI can enhance productivity and output quality, sometimes even substituting for team collaboration, while also improving speed and efficiency in problem-solving tasks. Read the episode transcript here. Guest bio: Raffaella Sadun is the Charles E. Wilson Professor of Business Administration at Harvard Business School, where she cochairs the Project on Managing the Future of Work and is coprincipal investigator of the Digital Reskilling Lab. Her research focuses on managerial and organizational drivers of productivity and growth in corporations and the public sector. She cofounded several large-scale projects to measure management practices and managerial behavior in organizations, such as the World Management Survey, the Executive Time Use Study, and U.S. Census Bureau's Management and Organizational Practices Survey of hospitals.

AI's Role in Business Transformation (00:59)Bill McDermott notes a shift in CEOs from mere fascination with AI to AI-led business strategies. He sees ServiceNow's role in AI transformation as being that of a "control tower." AI has impacted several business areas including customer service, supply chains, employee onboarding, and risk mitigation. It's also a great tool for labor arbitrage. That's not to mention that AI agents can operate 24/7 without breaks, complementing human efforts.Agentic AI, A Holistic Solution (04:01)Agentic AI is on the rise and will serve customers, employees, and operations, taking over tasks computers handle more efficiently than humans. While current AI agents are often siloed within departments, ServiceNow's platform integrates these agents across the enterprise, offering a holistic solution. "So now you have the agents working together to accomplish something," McDermott says, "as opposed to just doing something for one function." The foundation for this integration lies in a unified data model and architecture.Customer Trust and Innovation (06:53)Trust is the ultimate human currency. Without it, McDermott says, there's no progress. Customers know they can trust ServiceNow and its technology. He mentions its investments in customer success programs, innovation accelerators, and strategic partnerships to drive business impact. Net new innovation must be delivered to customers, employees, and shareholders through both traditional and new consumption models.Partnerships and Integration (10:29)McDermott discusses ServiceNow's partnerships and the potential for a multi-cloud approach similar to the infrastructure side. He's confident in the market's ability to accommodate multiple players and points to expanded collaborations with Cognizant, NVIDIA, and others. He talks about ServiceNow's integration with hyper-scalers including Microsoft, AWS, and Google Cloud, showcasing the benefits of a comprehensive platform for business processes. "We're open, and we integrate with everybody."Balancing Trust and Innovation (14:29)Balancing trust and innovation in the AI era is a challenge as ServiceNow becomes increasingly embedded in customers' operations. McDermott emphasizes the value of trusted partnerships and selective collaboration to sustain customer trust. He highlights ServiceNow's partnership with NVIDIA and its recognition in the American Opportunity Index, which measures employee prosperity post-employment.The Future of Work and AI (16:34)In the future, AI will revolutionize work by reducing monotonous tasks and freeing up time for innovation. ServiceNow is part of creating that future, already using AI to simplify complex workflows, saving employees significant time and allowing them to focus on higher-value tasks. "This is a renaissance moment for the workers. They get to get rid of the soul-crushing work that they've never wanted to do anyway." Reskilling the workforce will be necessary for this revolution and is being done through initiatives like ServiceNow University and the AI Institute.

In a world where skills gaps are widening and job demands are evolving at unprecedented rates, understanding how to gain a "skills advantage" is critical for organizations to stay competitive. In this episode, Anish Lalchandani, author of The Skills Advantage, delves into his insights on bridging skills gaps, building resilient teams, and preparing organizations for the future. Anish walks us through his approach, discussing how the right skills strategy can shift a team from good to exceptional and position L&D as a driver of business transformation. Whether you're a leader looking to upskill your team or an L&D professional aiming to create a sustainable skills strategy, this conversation is packed with actionable insights. KEY TAKEAWAYS The established approach to L&D is no longer enough. L&D needs to go beyond business alignment and take the lead in equipping our businesses to thrive in the future. You don´t have the wrong people, they have the wrong skills. Employees need to be convinced that upskilling benefits them and the business. A huge proportion of executive transitions fail, and we need to address this. What is going on in the market and industry helps you identify future skill needs. Use technology to help with your data analysis and become more agile. When you demonstrate impact, you get permission to do more. BEST MOMENTS “The established approach to L&D is no longer enough.” “Reskilling is a long-term game, start now.” “We need to hold ourselves accountable to actual upskilling and not just providing learning.” “You don´t have the wrong people, they have the wrong skills.” “The risk of relying on firing and hiring is extraordinary.” Anish Lalchandani Bio Anish Lalchandani is the author of the book ‘The Skills Advantage: A Human-Centered, Sustainable and Scalable Approach to Reskilling’. Having held leadership roles at leading firms like A.P. Moller Maersk (current), General Electric, Standard Chartered Bank and other organizations, he has developed extensive expertise in Talent, OD, Leadership and HR Strategy. In addition to being a Chartered Fellow of the CIPD, he is also a certified professional coach and mentor to start-up founders. Several publications, including Economic Times, Thinkers360, LeadersHum and HRD, rate him as one of the top influencers in HR and the Future of Work.

This episode was supposed to be about upskilling and reskilling exclusively... but we quickly talked about the skills-based organization because that is where upskilling and reskilling start. You have to know what skills you are trying to build! I had THE best person for this discussion IMO. My guest was Lori Niles-Hofman. Lori hosts an upskilling course on LinkedIn Learning. She describes herself as an EdTech and AI Transformation Strategist. She is an author having written The Eight Levers of EdTech Transformation which will be published this spring. She has also been an L&D leader for big organizations. Her command of the big picture and the details was impressive. This discussion was full of new ways of thinking: - A skills based organization moves away from discussions about job titles to discussions around particular skills. - People might be paid based on skills rather than job title. - Upskilling and reskilling become a lot easier when we focus on individual skills as opposed to a large set of skills as is common on an L&D program - Her clients focus on a limited number of skills as they move towards a skills-based organization - You might start with ONE skill. Her insight was so precise - it was amazing. And it was different, Lori is not afraid to consider new ways of doing things!

An author of six books, including Work Without Jobs and The Skills-Powered Organization, Ravin is at the forefront of reshaping how organizations approach AI, human capital, and the evolution of work. Connect with Ravin: Website: ravinjesuthasan.com Mercer Resources: mercer.com Books: The Skills-Powered Organization, Work Without Jobs In this episode, Ravin Jesuthasan dives into the rapid transformation of work, fueled by AI, automation, and evolving people strategies. He shares insights on building resilient organizations, integrating technology into workforce planning, and the changing role of leadership in a world of uncertainty. Ravin also explores how companies can adapt to these shifts by embracing agility, fostering a culture of learning, and aligning technology with human potential. Key Takeaways: 1. Evolving People Strategies: Traditional models no longer work. Companies must integrate AI and automation into talent strategies while embracing flexible workforces like gig workers and outsourced teams. 2. AI's Role in Work: Transactional tasks are being automated, expertise work is enhanced by AI, and relational tasks still rely on human empathy, though AI can augment communication. 3. Resilience in Leadership: Leaders must focus on certainties, embed learning and wellbeing into workflows, and build emotional connections with their teams to handle uncertainty. 4. Skills Over Roles: Skills are the new currency in the workplace. Reskilling current employees is often more effective than hiring new talent. 5. Culture as Structure: As organizations flatten, culture replaces hierarchy, driving alignment, trust, and shared purpose in the workplace. 6. Workplace Wellbeing: Intentional design, like the "right to disconnect," improves performance and prevents burnout. Practical Applications: For Leaders: Develop AI fluency and use technology to enhance, not replace, human potential. For HR Professionals: Redesign people strategies to include automation, flexible work models, and multi-generational talent. For Organizations: Build cultures that prioritize trust, adaptability, and intentionality in wellbeing initiatives.

It's been a tough couple of years for Talent Acquisition. There was a time during the post-pandemic hiring wave when companies were struggling to recruit enough recruiters. Now, the situation is the polar opposite, with TA teams shrinking and many recruiters being laid off. In such economically uncertain times, it's difficult to determine whether AI is starting to be a factor that impacts jobs in TA. However, based on current adoption rates, it's probably fair to say that AI is still only a minor contributor to the overall situation. But this is quickly going to change. As employers start to look at transforming TA over the longer term, AI and automation will inevitably play a significant role in shaping the TA teams of the future. This raises important questions about job displacement and reskilling. These are not just questions that AI raises for TA; they are questions that span the entire organization, with a strong likelihood that all jobs will be impacted in some way. So, how can employers prepare their workforce for these impending changes, and what is the likely split between job replacement, job enhancement, and job creation? My guest this week is Kamal Ahluwalia, President of Ikigai Labs and former President of Eightfold AI. Kamal has extremely well-informed insights on AI's impact on jobs and skills and valuable advice for employers and employees. In the interview, we discuss: The impact of AI on work and jobs Jobs eliminated, jobs changed, jobs created Building scenarios for the future The critical importance of data How should employers be responding What is the role of HR and TA? Evolving processes to meet new objectives Reskilling and upskilling How do employers encourage people to learn new skills? What will work be like in five years? Follow this podcast on Apple Podcasts.

TakeawaysIncreased reliance on AI raises concerns about the potential loss of skills and job elimination or displacement.Cost cutting and aggressive store closures are driven by the belief that AI can replace human talent.Cyber attacks and deepfakes pose significant risks to organizations and individuals.The environmental impact of AI's energy consumption is a growing concern.The erosion of creativity and originality is a potential consequence of excessive reliance on AI.Misinformation and biased decision-making are risks associated with AI-driven data analysis.Reskilling employees and protecting intellectual property are crucial in the AI era.Finding the right balance between AI and human critical thinking is essential for successful risk mitigation.Chapters00:00Introduction and Overview01:32Concerns over Skills and Job Elimination07:14The Risks of Cyber Attacks and Deepfakes08:40The Environmental Impact of AI's Energy Consumption12:46The Erosion of Creativity and Originality14:39The Risks of Misinformation and Biased Decision-Making15:35Reskilling Employees and Protecting Intellectual Property16:32Balancing AI and Human Critical Thinking17:30Closing Remarks
