š¤·āāļø Whatās Going On and Why It Matters:
Will Human Resources be impacted by artificial intelligence?
Obvi.
But how?
We make our best predictions all the time, but we also bring in the heavy hitters to set us straight on all things AI.
Enter: ThiƩbaud Groner, Senior Manager HR - M&A at Baxter International.
ThiƩbaud opened our eyes to the real challenges and opportunities Human Resources departments face when looking at GenAI.
And he also crushed some common misconceptions on how HR might benefit from all things AI.
Itās about more than cutting down on paper pushing. A lot more.
Infusing GenAI into Human Resources entails everything from predictive analytics for improved retention to faster daily operations with better policies and job descriptions.
If you missed our talk, go join the convo.
Hereās a highlight of what we uncovered:
- Example of using AI in employee surveys for in-depth data analysis
- Importance of HR professionals acting as change agents and addressing corporate culture issues
- Discussion on AI's potential to increase productivity and eliminate rigid systems
- Proposal to invest in existing employees by providing them with AI tools and skills
Yup. Our brains got all kinds of HR brain food today.
So letās dissect it. š
š¦¾How You Can Leverage:
Whatās the future of the HR department look like?
Sometimes when we think of innovation and tech, we think of the marketing, advertising or IT departments.
Wanna know a lil secret?
The HR department is likely a key to GenAI adoption. Not only could Human Resource leaders hold the keys to unlocking AI possibilities, but they also might be the ones calling for its use.
ThiƩbaud showed us the way, with some key insights and timely calls to action for HR professionals.
Hereās what it all means.
1 ā Say bye-bye to busywork š
Those long job descriptions?
Updating that policy manually?
Analyzing employee engagement surveys?
(Anyone else dreading the amount of tedious manual work involved here, or just us?)
ThiĆ©baudās tip?
Work GenAI into the HR departmentās day-to-day to help tackle the mountain of manual tasks. From using AI to gain more insights into employee engagement surveys to tapping into the multilingual capabilities of ChatGPT for translating policies in a multinational company, HR has a lot to gain from tapping into GenAI.
Try this:
A recent study from Boston Consulting Group showed HR departments can see a 30% increase in productivity by tapping into GenAI.
Wanna know one of the easiest wins for manual tasks? Analyzing PDFs inside of ChatGPT. Whether itās employee engagement surveys or having to combine multiple job descriptions across different verticals, knowing how to use PDFs inside of ChatGPT is a game-changer.
2 ā Use AI data for decision making š§
In the end, HR departments are in charge of important decisions that can impact thousands of employees.
How can AI help?
ThiƩbaud stressed the importance of predictive AI data in HR decision-making. By harnessing AI technology, HR can identify patterns and trends in employee data, helping companies make informed decisions about employee engagement, performance, and retention.
Try this: Not exaggerating here: HR is ripe for some swift GenAI transformation. Especially when it comes to AI-powered insights, the future of the HR department is already starting to unfold. Check out this McKinsey report on how AI and data is changing Human Resources.
3 ā HR should take the charge šļø
ThiƩbaud may have saved his best take for the end of our show, encouraging leaders in the Human Resources space to not be complacent when it comes to implementing HR.
HR leaders are, after all, often the center of an org. So, they have to be Ambassadors of AI change, ThiƩbaud said.
Try this:
Alright, so youāre in HR and now youāre convinced to start taking the steps to push GenAI in your company?
Good call shorties.
But where to start? Hit rewind about 24 hours, and check out our talk with Isar Meitis as he laid out specifically how to jumpstart AI implementation in any org.
