This creates so many questions beyond current work (schools? Economics?) but I agree the ability to lead and navigate the future of human-machine workforce, where the machine is the ‘person’ equivalent, not a tool. A big question on my mind is how many tech teams are or will be humble enough to bring the people people into the room?!
This is so validating, Johannes. Seeing exactly the same thing here in ANZ. Your point about HR abdicating tool selection to IT - spot on. Start from the human, not the enterprise agreement. Great piece, sharing with my network.
Thanks for the read Johannes! Can attest being in the same state as you (excitement, bewilderment, uncertainty). Every day, I am seeing a new use case and hitting my token limit in Claude (really trying to get me to upgrade to Max lol).
Completely agree with how HR will need to insert itself in how work is redefined, and augmented, as a result of AI and how that change will impact jobs. I also agree that HR (in a traditional sense) is a dinosaur about to go extinct.
To add on, I see things changing where HR becomes a workforce data architect and strategist, empowering business owners to leverage AI tools for bespoke process creation (recruiting, onboarding, learning, performance, etc)., while HR is the connective tissue, ensuring that these data from the processes are leveraged for insight and that the processes are coherent and compliant. Essentially, HR is becoming the true nervous system of the organization. Exciting times!

And what great thoughts for a Wednesday, singing from the same hymn sheet!
