In this keynote, Byron Clayton reveals how tech-enabled insights and personalized career platforms are reshaping retention and building a more committed, future-ready workforce.
Josh is an analyst and thought leader specializing in the global talent market and the challenges and trends affecting business workforces around the world. He founded Bersin & Associates in 2001 to provide associated research and advisory services—a business he later sold to Deloitte when it became known as Bersin by Deloitte. In 2019, he launched The Josh Bersin Academy, the world's first global development academy for HR and talent professionals, and he is currently the CEO of its sister research advisory firm, The Josh Bersin Company.
AI is no longer an emerging trend in HR — it is fundamentally reshaping how work gets done, how organizations operate, and how people create value. As intelligent systems move from experimentation to scale, HR leaders face a critical challenge: how to translate rapid technological disruption into sustainable, human-centered advantage.
In this keynote, Josh Bersin will share the latest global research on how AI, skills-based talent models, and new organizational designs are redefining the HR function and the enterprise itself. Drawing on real-world examples from leading organizations, he will explore what is working, what is failing, and where HR leaders must focus over the next 12–24 months to drive productivity, agility, and trust.
Attendees will leave with a practical leadership playbook for navigating AI adoption responsibly, redesigning the HR operating model, and building a future-ready workforce — turning HR technology from a source of disruption into a powerful engine for human and business performance.
